Actually the name is Willis O’Brien. He invented 3D animation. His last movie was:”It's A Mad,Mad,Mad,Mad World. He animated the Firetruck ladder scene at the end of the movie.

Interesting!

When you say 3D Animation, do you mean Stop Motion or Claymation?

Stop-Mo has been around to some extent for a hundred years.

That 1902 film ‘Journey To The Moon’ for example and before that ‘The Mechanical Butcher’. Both included some stop-and-go photography to create the SPFX.
