Sculpture moderne (1908)

Synopsis: First, a woman holds a sculpture in her hands which shows some people; as she covers and uncovers it, the people change their position. Then she shows a frame containing those people in a figure (or photography); again, as she covers it and uncovers it, the people change their position. Next, she holds a bulk of clay that sculpts itself into some shape; first a shoe, then a crocodile, and so on.
Appraisal: Interesting display of animation technique, quite competent for its time.
