Esso Extra

This creepy short is mostly live action, but incorporates animation towards the end. Most of the clip is a standard advertisement for Esso gasoline until the gas jockeys suddenly break into a jingle and the Esso sign mutates into a grinning face! It's a bit strange, but it's a good look at how advertisers were trying to mix animation and live action.
