The Wizard of speed and time

An examination of pixillation technique. From a mountain cave blasts a green wizard, skimming along the highway at incredible speed until slipping on a banana peel. Then from beneath the wreckage of a shattered movie studio, he magically resurrects every piece of equipment and celebrates with song and sparkles.
