Chroma Clay - Teal

Plasticine for Studio Animation Productions

Chroma Clay Teal is a refined, high-performance modelling clay designed for animators who require nuanced colour control and a modern aesthetic. As a premium alternative to Newplast, our Teal Clay is formulated to stay vibrant and true under the glare of professional studio lighting. Its deep, balanced tone makes it a favourite for environmental details, aquatic scenes, and stylised character designs that require a sophisticated palette.

Made for Precision and Frame Stability

Handmade in the UK using animator-tested materials, the Chroma Clay formula is specifically tuned for the tactile needs of professional stop motion:

• Structural Frame Integrity: The wax-based composition ensures that your sculptures hold their exact form and surface texture between exposures.

• Responsive Thermal Pliability: Despite its structural strength, the clay warms rapidly with handling, providing the subtle, expressive response needed for fine character acting and fluid mouth shapes.

• Matte Studio Finish: Developed to provide a smooth, low-sheen surface that looks exceptional in high-definition shots and simplifies digital post-production.

Advanced Casting and Custom Colour Blending

Because Chroma Clay Teal is fully meltable, it serves as an excellent base for custom palettes. The ability to pour melted clay into silicone moulds allows for the creation of repeatable components. It's ideal for replacement animation or large-scale set elements. For bespoke tones, blend Teal with Chroma Clay White for a soft seafoam or Chroma Clay Yellow for vibrant, tropical greens, giving you total creative control over your project.
