Aardman studios use claymation, which is stop motion animation that is made out of clay. To which there are many different job roles that are involved. A few of the jobs that are involved are Director and Producer, Art Directors, Animators, Editors, Model Makers, Sculptors, Painters and many more. Job Roles Director: The director is in charge and looks over every department within the process of making the film. However, with some films like Wallace and Gromit in the Curse of the Were-Rabbit there are two directors who are Nick Park and Steve Box. Both directors would have put their minds together to come up with ideas and work as partners to produce the finished product. For example, they would talk about shots that they want within the film and then they would work on that shot together and expand their ideas to achieve the shot, as they both would want.

Producer: A Producer is the person who would put money into the film and sometimes help by inputting their ideas into the film. For example, the producer on the Aardman TV series, Julie Lockhart, would have helped put money towards what she felt needed the money. If she had thought that the show needed more advertisement she would talk to the filmmakers and come to an agreement with them to put money and her own ideas to get the advertising in production. Art Director: The art director of Aardman would be the person in charge of things like the set design and the model makers. Looking over, keeping a watch and organizing groups like the painters, model makers, sculptures, set designers and more the art director has a large reasonability as they need to get the production of arts ready on time for filming.
