** {If the above embeddable should break: Gumbasia Premiere | Gumby | Veoh}
A 3-minute film made by Art Clokey in 1953.
This student film, consisting of animated clay geometric shapes contorting to a jazz score,
so intrigued Samuel G. Engel, the president of the Motion Pictures Producers Association,
that he financed the pilot films for what became Art Clokey's "The Gumby Show" (1957).
** Alternatively, you can also freely download this film from the Internet Archive, as this short film is in the public domain.
