| Bit-by-Bit Transformation | comment |
A type of transformation in which, most likely due to a curse, spell or potion, portions of your body start to turn into that of a creature until the whole body is changed. The order can vary depending on what animal or on the work. Often happens with a Forced Transformation. Can lead to Stumbling in the New Form if, for example, one leg gets changed but the other doesn't, leaving the victim with an uneven gait until the change is complete. See also Partial Transformation, when the transformation stops at just part of it, and Slow Transformation. |

In the Looney Tunes short Yankee Dood It, whenever the Shoemaker says the word "Jehoshaphat", the elf gradually transforms into a mouse (which can be undone by saying the word "Rumpelstiltskin"). First he gains a mouse's tail, then mouse ears, and finally into a full mouse. At the end of the cartoon, when the elf king visits the Shoemaker to check on his business, the shoemaker declares his next line of shoes to be named "the Jehoshaphat Boots", and the King goes straight into the complete mouse form. | |

Ozzy Osbourne's "Shot in the Dark" music video focuses on one female fan, who goes to an Ozzy concert and has a good time... until she notices her fingernails have turned black. Her panic increases as more features are altered. The end of the video shows her on a billboard (advertising the concert) as its lone character. | |

In an episode of The Outer Limits (1995), "Quality of Mercy", a human has been captured by aliens. He meets another captive, who is being subjected to numerous surgeries to gradually change her body into that of the aliens. Turns out she was actually an alien spy being reverted out of her human disguise, all the while playing on his sympathies to gain information. | |

Beauty and the Beast: Happens at the end when the Beast returns to his human form. The hands change first, then the feet change, and his head changes too. We aren't shown anything else, though. The Enchanted Christmas shows a flashback showing the prince's transformation into a beast, where the only part that's completely shown are his hands. | |

Lego Marvel Superheroes: When Bruce Banner changes into the Hulk, his chest expands first (looking like a distorted minifig body, rather then a "big minifig"), then his arms and legs, and then finally his shirt shreds completely as he goes into full "big minifig" mode. When "Hulking down", he gets Bruce's head first, then his torso and legs shrink down but he keeps the big minifig arms for a moment. | |

The Twilight Zone (1985): In "The After Hours", Marsha Cole begins to become plastic again after learning that she is a mannequin. Her right leg is the first part of her to transform and she has to drag it in her fruitless attempt to escape from her fellow mannequins. It is followed by her right arm and then her left leg. Refusing to accept her fate, she still tries to escape but soon her head is the only part of her that is still human. In the final scene, she has become fully plastic and is on display in the department store Satler's with all of the other mannequins. | |

Although using a shorter time frame than most examples, shapeshifting in Animorphs works this way. For added fun, the process is randomized every time. With practice, they can exercise some control over which part turns into what first (Jake manages to start a wolf morph just enough to change his throat to change his voice, Cassie impresses the Andalite sharing her brain by making Hork-Bajir arm blades appear in sequence). Turned into an artform by Andalites (who call it morphdancing). | |

In Bartok the Magnificent, Ludmilla drinks a potion that amplifies your inner self ten times and slowly transforms into a dragon. First she grows a tail, then her hands grow bigger and grow claws, then her breasts grow to a ludicrous extend, then her lower body transforms, her arms grow, she balloons to an enormous size, she sprouts horns, and finally her face turns into that of a dragon. | |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: In "The Dark Age", Jenny Calendar is possessed by the demon Eyghon. At first the transformation is just in her attitude, becoming sexually forward (which an off-his-game Giles attributes to an earlier head injury), but quickly turns scornful, then growly-voiced with some forehead distortion. When she later returns, she's in full-on pointy-ear, big-forehead glowy-eyes mode. | |
