Research
The aim of your industry research is to demonstrate your own awareness of how the techniques and technologies available to stop Motion animators have changed over time.
Discussing this development in your own words allows your to demonstrate your ability to talk about animation using technical terms (eg frame, frame rate, illusion of movement, sequence, green-screen, lip sync, phoneme, puppet, armature, claymation, paper-cut, CGI,) your awareness of how Stop Motion has been used commercially in the past, and the arguments for using it to produce creative work today.
If you were to pitch your idea to a record label for funding today, you would need to show the though behind your decision to use this technique - this gives you an opportunity to practice doing this.
Though you must present these ideas in your own words, using screen grabs, links to clips on youtube and quotes will help to give your ideas more weight and interest.
Sequence Ideas
Your presentation of your sequence ideas should make it clear what you intended to animate and how you intend to use specific techniques to do this. Using screen grabs and/or links to your own experiments or other peoples animations can help make this clear and interesting.
