With condensed narratives under a short film format, the practice of animation allows dialogues and tensions to be framed between the materials used, conventions about the “know-how” and ruptures with predominant statements in other artistic expressions. The richness of the images that are part of this corpus, invites us to look at the use of the various materials that build the universes of each short film. In this article we will review the construction of the staging and the expressive function of materialities as an expressive object within four independent Latin American stop motion short films: Padre (Grasso, 2013, Argentina), Bestia (Covarrubias, 2021, Chile), Guaxuma (Normande, 2018, Brazil) and Meat (Kater, 2019, Brazil). Although the two Brazilian short films present a mixture of techniques, the emphasis will be placed on the stop motion animation present in the four case studies. La animación independiente de autor resulta una ventana abierta a un espacio multiforme de exploraciones técnicas, temáticas y estilísticas. Con narrativas condensadas bajo el formato de cortometraje, la práctica de animación permite poner en cuadro diálogos y tensiones entre materiales empleados, convenciones sobre modos de hacer y rupturas a enunciados predominantes en otras expresiones artísticas. La riqueza de las imágenes que conforman el corpus de este artículo invita a dirigir la mirada al uso de los diversos materiales que construyen los universos de cada cortometraje. Revisaremos la construcción de la puesta en escena y la función expresiva de las materialidades en tanto objeto expresivo dentro de cuatro cortometrajes independientes latinoamericanos: Padre (Grasso, 2013, Argentina), Bestia (Covarrubias, 2021, Chile), Guaxuma (Normande, 2018, Brasil) y Carne (Kater, 2019, Brasil). Si bien los dos cortometrajes brasileños presentan una mixtura de técnicas, el énfasis estará puesto en la animación stop motion presente en los cuatro casos de estudio.
