McCay - The Flying House 1921.mov

[@totalbadass500]

Creative and well done. I got lost watching this and forgot it started off with a dream

[@calebshockency2083]

So now I know where Up gets its plot.

I’m here from the over the garden wall artbook

SAAAAAME

[@moonfish3638]

Me too! I’m happy I got to see this!

[@seanstark4312]

i would love to see Patrick McHale make a Little Nemo or Dreams of a Rarebit Fiend cartoon, he'd be perfect for it

[@Dandydust397]

@@seanstark4312 a Japanese studio made a movie dedicated and based off Windsor McCays little Nemo, directed masami hata, beautiful movie

[@sailordude2094]

Thanks for uploading this many years ago. "McCay first proposed a strip in which a tobacco fiend finds himself at the North Pole, unable to secure a cigarette and a light. In the last panel he awakens to find it a dream. The Herald asked McCay to make a series of the strip, but with a Welsh rarebit theme instead of tobacco, and McCay complied."

Winsor McCay, actually did a book on how he made animated cartoons from 1919!

[@Musicradio77Network]

This was the one of the very first Science Fiction animated short from 1921. The very first monster flick was “The Pet” also later that year. Both were made by Winsor McCay.

[@bernardwelt]

Yeah, I've always figured that the ending of "King King" was inspired by--or lifted from--the end of The Pet, where the giant dog is taken down by armed airplanes.

[@luz-flipa-acao-1905]

Winsor Mccay era tão criativo!

[@sospeakthefreak6269]

This is so Wonderful , all that Forms and Aspects ! Thanks a lot for Posting !

And You Thought UP Was So Original

[@rjmcallister1888]

Throw all realities aside, and it's a fun little movie. Takes a creative mind to come up with this kind of stuff.

[@hoppinggnomethe4154]

interesting how the double "o" was written, how this referenced the Prohibition, how creatively done the "The End" text was, and how this reminds me of the movie "Up"

[@bernardwelt]

This is certainly one inspiration for “Up.” As the title card says, McCay is considered an-not “the”-inventor of “animated drawing,” so a lot of animated films pay tribute to him in one way or another-especially “Finding Nemo,” named for his most famous character

[@Lucius1958]

An observation: after that lengthy, quasi-scientific title, they show the Earth rotating the WRONG WAY... Incidentally, Robert McCay, Winsor's son, was the original model for Little Nemo...

[@agvargasb]

True!

[@heystella8611]

At least it's not flat

[@benmelnichuk2053]

What a music!!!

[@CaptainScarlet2006]

I saw that in fine art films great.

[@BelaCurcio]

So incredible

[@TobyKral007]

you know you're high on KZbin when the video starts with The End.

[@Khultan]

NO DISNEY, MGM, WARNER BROS., HANNA-BARBERA STYLE. SO GOOD 1000%

I was already stationed in New York.

[@electronicacoustic]

beautiful!

[@atchoo2u]

This might be our solution to the economy... I need to see his blueprints...

[@hoodatdondar2664]

I’m here because I ate a large Welsh rarebit. What did I just watch?? Say, I guess that’s enough. No more rarebits for mine. Oh! Wheo! Oh!

100 year anniversary

[@heystella8611]

Rarebits again?!

[@Amanda-it8hb]

luv the end

[@zensorrow1]

Superb!

[@cellytron]

Whoa. Is that the same man from How a Mosquito Operates?! Is there a Winsor McCay Cinematic Universe?!

[@bernardwelt]

Yes. Gertie the Dinosaur, The Pet (which is amazing, and I think inspired King Kong)--McCay was a real animation pioneer.

[@MalenaSofiaMogni]

Alguien sabe que musica es la que suena?

[@Khultan]

1000%

[@Dumbledoresarmy13]

He had the best draftsmanship (IMO) of the early animators, but man did he have an ego. Every single time he makes an animated short he has to remind you that he 'invented' the technique. Every. Single. Time. Emile Cohl's Fantasmagorie may have no plot and basic stick figures but it also didn't have 3 title cards reminding you that he's the first person to use the exact technique for animating that he uses.

[@bernardwelt]

I think artists have a right to claim their work without moral judgment on their humility or pride. But you may remember that McCay in fact lost vast sums by sharing ideas with others who did no work except applying for patents. So he had good reason to be wary.

[@overtonloyd2579]

LOL, I never realized that he also invented BRANDING😝

[@garydmcgath]

I wish he'd given credit to the assistants who did backgrounds and in-betweening. You get the impression he personally drew each frame in its entirety.

[@footpuppy100]

cool
