Scenes from ATLANTIS - THE LOST CONTINENT (1961) 

This George Pal movie has tons of special effects, from matte paintings (above) to full scale and pretty large models (below). Explosions and elaborate makeup (creatures), etc. Here are two examples: above is a combination of many elements, including actual location with actors (crowd) combined with model (submarine) and matte painting (background). Below are big and tall models (taller than a man) with a painted background. And of course, a pool of water that's not really the ocean.
