The difference between "Time Lapse" and "Stop Motion"

Todays post is about the difference between 2 techniques that technically involve the same process but deliver a different outcome. Time-lapse photography is a technique where frames are captured and viewed in sequence. When played at normal speed, time appears to be moving faster and thus lapsing. This is my first attempt at Time-lapse.... And my second.... Stop motion is an animation technique to make a physically manipulated object appear to move on its own. The next 2 videos show a time lapse of a Stop motion :D I also have other "Time Lapse" videos in other posts - just scroll down and read :D I have now uploaded a video that is not really a tutorial but more a "watch and learn". So pay no attention and learn nothing :D Ok - so is this "Time-Lapse" or "Stop Motion"?
