What Wikipedia says

Pixilation is a stop-motion technique in which live actors are used as a frame-by-frame subject in an animated film, by repeatedly posing while one or more frame is taken and changing pose slightly before the next frame or frames. This technique is often used as a way to blend live-actors with animated ones in a movie.
