EXCERPTS >|< Gumbasia (1955)

A series of GIFs excerpted from Gumbasia, a 3 minute 10 second short film produced in 1953 and released on September 2, 1955, was the first clay animation produced by Art Clokey, who went on to create the classic series, Gumby and Davey and Goliath, using the same technique.
Clokey created Gumbasia while studying at the University of Southern California under the direction of Slavko Vorkapić. The film was a surreal short of pulsating shapes and lumps of clay set to music in a parody of Walt Disney’s Fantasia. Gumbasia was created in a style Vorkapić taught called Kinesthetic Film Principles. Described as “massaging of the eye cells" this technique, based on camera movements and stop-motion editing, is responsible for much of the look and feel later seen in Gumby films (from Wikipedia.)

Una serie di GIF estratte da Gumbasia, un corto di 3 minuti e 10 secondi prodotto nel 1953 e distribuito nel 1955. Si tratta della prima animazione con argilla prodotto da Art Clockey, che creerà successivamente le serie Gumby e Davey and Goliath usando la medesima tecnica.
Clockey crea GUmbasia mentre studia all’University of Southern California sotto la direzione di Slavko Vorkapić. Il film è un surreale susseguirsi di forme pulsanti e grumi di argilla che si muovono a ritmo di musica, parodiando Fantasia di Walt Disney. Gumbasia è stato realizzato in uno stile definito da Vorkapić Kinestetic Film Principles. Questa tecnica, basata su movimenti di camera e stop-motion editing, è responsabile del look & feel dei successivi Gumby films (da Wikipedia).
