Clay/ Puppet Animation Part 1: The cameraman's Revenge

By Ladislaw Starevich, 1912
Russian Entomologist making documentary on beetles.
Lights forced real beetles to hide so he built armatures and used them in a puppet animation
resulted in a "bedroom" farce instead of a documentary
He went on to animate and direct films for the next 50 years
