Graphic animation:

Graphic animation is a variation of stop motion .Stop motion is an animation technique to make a physically manipulated object appear to move on its own.

Graphic animation consists of the animation of photographs and other non drawn flat visual graphic material, such as newspaper and magazine clippings. Graphic animation uses non drawn flat visual graphic materials which are sometimes manipulated frame by frame to create movement. At other times, these graphic animations remain stationary, while the stop motion camera is moved to create onscreen action.

In its simplest form, Graphic animation can take the form of the animation camera merely panning up and down and or across individual photographs, one at a time, (filmed frame by frame, and hence, animated) without changing the photographs from frame to frame, as on Ken Burns various historical documentary films for PBS. But once the photos (or graphics) are also moved from frame to frame, more exciting montages of movement can be produced, such as on Los Angeles animator Mike Jittlov short film, Animato. These graphic animations are also seen in his feature film, The Wizard of Speed and Time, released to theaters in 1987 and to video in 1989.Graphic animation can be (and often is) combined with other forms of animation including direct manipulation animation and traditional cel animation.

Examples of graphic animation are Frank Morris 1973 Oscar winning short film, Frank Film, and Charles Braverman, Condensed Cream of the Beatles (1973), originally produced for Geraldo Rivera late night TV show of the time, Goodbye America.
