willis o brien : For his early, short films which was The Dinosaur and the Missing Link: A Prehistoric Tragedy O'Brien created his own characters out of clay, although for much of his feature career he would employ Richard and Marcel Delgado to create much more detailed stop-motion models based on O'Brien's designs with rubber skin built up over complex, articulated metal armatures.

Ray Harryhausen : Before the advent of computers for camera motion control and CGI, movies used a variety of approaches to achieve animated special effects. One approach was stop-motion animation which used realistic miniature models more accurately called model animation, used for the first time in a feature film in The Lost World  1925, and most famously in King Kong 1933.

He studied at the College of Applied Arts in Prague and later in the Department of Puppetry at the Prague Academy of Performing Arts. In 1958 he contributed to Emil Radok's film Doktor Faust
