It's A Bird (1930)

Excerpt from a bizarre early stop-motion animation piece featuring Charley Bowers and a metal-eating bird. The creature devours junk from an auto scrapyard, then lays an egg that hatches and grows into a brand new car! Very impressive FX and way before CGI. Directed by Harold L. Muller.

Wow, so good, almost makes me want to call it fake because of how smooth it all looks. Would love to know how they did this.

Too bad they didnt have a "special effects" academy award in 1930, 'cause this would surely win it!! Incredible stop motion animation!! And I thought King kong was good!! :) Thanks for posting this odd but spectacular bit! Still very entertaining!

Amazing. I'm an animator and I can't even believe how much work this would have been in to make in 1930. And most of it is so smooth. Super cool. Incredible.
