SECRET SPOT 1974- by JOHN LAMB

We came across Secret Spot-1974 and really found it entertaining. Secret Spot 1974 was the first animated film by Laguna Beach artist John Lamb and is comprised of 2,200 watercolor drawings animated straight ahead. The film premiered with "Forgotten Island of Santosha" at the South Coast Theatre in Laguna 1974. Hal Jepsen and Australian filmaker Chris Bystrom both licensed the short for "We Got Surf "and "Thunder Down Under".

Also The character was then merchandised on Hang Ten skateboards and evolved into the 5 Summer Stories cartoon, Rocket 88, which took a more technical approach using celluloid acetate and psycadelic backgrounds. Kinda cool..
