This isn't a good example; he was more outrageous in later cartoons. This is 1949's Hula Hula Land, starring Heckle and Jeckle, with frequent appearances of the Terry Splash™.
Dimwit the dog has been tossed ashore by a wave. Cut to his "boss" bulldog who is about to be thrown on top of him.
Dimwit realises what's about to happen. Some rubbery animation.
Now the shrink.
Back to full size as he exits stage left. (Sorry, wrong cartoon series).
Manny Davis directed this cartoon. The animators didn't get screen credit until Gene Deitch showed up in the later '50s.
Even at a young age, Tyer was my favorite animator. I didn't know his name back then, but always recognized his style.
ReplyDeleteSame here..!
DeletePersonally I'da fired the bum, but Mr.Terry liked all the paint he was saving whenever the dog would shrink.
ReplyDeleteSpumco would certainly take inspiration from this.
