user-1: What kind of animation is when real toys are played during filmed real time?
Look at this video:



It is similar to "stop motion" but I guess it is some other genre.
How is this style called?

user29988: Since you see a person's hands moving the dolls, I don't think this can be called animation. I think the term which fits best is puppetry.
