My updated list, excluding directors who work is primarily known for non-experimental shorts regardless of their ratio of features to shorts, meaning that I won't count those like Dave Fleischer or George Melies, but will count Brakhage and McLaren as they are experimental, and D.W. Griffith, and Charlie Chaplin because their features are what they are known for.

D.W. Griffith 64
