Wallace and Gromit are the main characters in a series of three British animated films by Nick Park of Aardman Animation. All the characters were made from moulded plasticine[1] on wire frames, and filmed with stop motion animation. This process is sometimes known as "claymation" because clay is occasionally used.
Wallace is a hare-brained inventor, cheese enthusiast (especially for Wensleydale cheese) and owner of the dog Gromit who appears to be rather more intelligent than his master. All the speaking characters have Yorkshire accents, Wallace being voiced by veteran actor Peter Sallis.
