Fantasmagorie (1908)

Fantasmagorie is known to be one of the earliest traditional animations, created by Emily Cohl a french animator. It's also mentions by historians as one of the first cartoon animation.

The animation consists of stick figures moving around objects that constantly morphs into something else, for example it'll go from a wine bottle to a flower. The animation also consists of live action where the animators hand entering frame to draw on the page.

The film is a tribute from the incoherent movement because of the many transformations. the title fantasmagorie is a reference to 'fantasmograph', a nineteen century variant of the magic lantern which had ghostly images that floated across the walls.
