The educational film "Artwork in Motion" by the Calvin Company, a producer of industrial films, likely dates back to the late 1950s/early 1960s. It was part of a series of "Workshop" films aimed at promoting the company to potential clients, and educating the public. The film provides an overview of animation techniques used in industrial and educational films, including optical effects, pop-up animation, wipe-off animation, cycle animation, and more. It also highlights common presentation mistakes and offers "do's and don'ts" for information delivery. The Calvin Company, founded in 1931 by Forrest and Betty Calvin, was based in Kansas City. For nearly half a century, it was one of the largest and most successful film producers of its type in the USA.
