ALL WALLACE AND GROMIT IS PLASTICINE.

Clay is what plant pots are made of

Hehe,so right Jordon

please say plasticine it bugs me when people call it "modeling paste or clay" or "clay" please u call urselfs wandg fans!

some people may get a bit confused from the use of names such as 'claymation', which suggest that clay is used. Don't be tricked!

i annoys the heck out of me lol "clay this , clay that" Its plasticine!!!! lol

Of course itll be plasticine the last 4 films have been and aardmans speciality is stop motion there the best in the world at it and i dont think theyll change

sorry for coming on strong lol

clay is basically the same as plasticine so it doesnt really matter and if you want to go into detail its newplast but that dont matter lol
i think the iflm will be made using clay/plasticine/newplast because it woul riun w&g if it wasnt and nick doesnt want his creation to fall so i think it will be made using clay/plasticine/newplast lol

clay is not plasticine and is different material !!! eeek lol

I don't want it 2 be CGI cos that would be sad. I don't think it is though, because if U watch the video there is a shot of 'Piella' and she is made of plasticine.

of course it won't be computer animation!! it would ruin the hole thing and in the blog at the top it shows them making a plastercine woman :P

clay drys plasticine doesnt

Its called clay animation. if you wach the behind the seanes of wallace and gromit they even call it plasticine clay animation. plasticine is just a kind of clay like pottery is just a kind of clay.

thankyou someone agrees with me lol

Yeah, it will be Plasticine. And claymation and clay bugs me so badly! CALL IT PLASTICINE PEOPLE!

Plasticine is the original name we are all familiar with from the original oil based clay company Plasticine .

Plasticine is a generic name for this kind of formulation off clay.

It is the same difference when we all refer to the vacuum cleaner as a Hoover again I believe Hoover was one of the original vacuum cleaner manufacturers.

It is no disrespect to call it clay as it is only an abbreviation.

Here is an interesting article on the history of Plasticine.http://modroc.com/plasticine.htm

Merry Christmas all, chill out over the hols.
