How an Advertising Poster Came About
1938, English. Directed by George Pal.
An animated short created for Philips Radio to showcase how an advertising poster is conceptually and physically assembled. The film uses Pal-Doll replacement animation, where each slight movement is represented by a unique handcrafted wooden puppet frame, to playfully dramatize the steps of graphic design and poster assembly in Art Deco-inspired style.
