Gumbasia

Clay objects of all sizes, shapes and colors contort and reshape themselves to a groovy jazz score in this short film by Art Clokey (creator of Gumby and Davey & Golliath).
The film was screened to a executive at 20th Century Fox,who was so impressed,that he soon after drew up a contract for Clokey to create a series of claymation shorts for children's television.

"Excite your cat day and night with endless enchantment...."

I love this new ad in all it's splendor of kitty-psychedelia.
Catchy tune too.




Feed the senses -and pass the catnip!

Destination Earth (1956)

This animated cartoon follows the adventures of "Colonel Cosmic," a Martian, as he learns that Oil and Competition are the two things that make America great. It is a sci-fi-influenced economic tract on the strengths of Earth-style free enterprise economics, compared to a stagnating Mars under the fist of a certain Mr. Ogg, who centrally controls the Martian economy. In the film, a Martian undercover agent flies from Mars to Earth to learn about the oil industry, and finds that the lack of government regimentation and control is what makes our system flourish.

a SUPER commercial
