Anything that can be moved in front of a camera can be used to do stop motion. Plastecine, old clothes, books, toys, anything. Maybe these examples will get your imagination going.

There’s a guy who goes by the name of PES who uses ordinary household objects to do animation:

You could use paper cutouts to do animation:

Pretty much anything you can move in front of a camera can be used for stop motion. Even yourself!
