This all reminds me of a friend - a filmmaker himself, mind you - who posits, or opines, or otherwise maintains, that the Captain Marvel who flies up the side of the building under the main credits of the classic serial is animated.

The rest of the flying sfx in that pic are with the Lydeckers' great wired dummy; and of course, the live action of Tyler's rear screen, and Dave Sharpe's leaps.

Doesn't matter. He sees animation.
