I believe that the title of the short film "The Kid And The Camera" is a metaphorical name. I believe that the clay animation themed world that's shown by default is representing how the child sees everything, and that the camera is a vessel for us as the viewers of the tape to see reality as it is. Hence why every time Cailen takes a picture of something, it is seen as a real life image. The animation is through the child's eyes. Reality is through the camera's eye. I think the reason why the one real life shot that there is with the sleep fairy in view is so disturbing is because everything is real... except for the fairy. Which makes me wonder how different the fairy would have looked had Cailen taken it's picture during the initial appearance at his bedroom window. The reason why the fairy was a real creature with facial expressions and anatomy in the cartoon was because in Cailen's eyes, it really was a real creature. But often times, predators who stalk and lure children like this know that their persona doesn't even need to appear or present itself as "real" because just gaining the child's trust is enough to persuade their developing mind. That's the reason why this is so eerie; not only is it eerily realistic, but it depicts an uncertain and cryptic perspective of reality though a child's eyes, and then brings actual reality crashing down to Earth.
