John Lamb (producer)

Lamb's animated short Rocket 88 also features Willie Makitt doing a "shuvit" maneuver, which would later become a standard trick among skateboarders.

[1] In 1976, Lamb created a psychedelic animation sequence for the feature film documentary Spinnin' Wheels, by Chris Carmichael.

Released in 1979, and largely hidden from the public eye for decades, the video would eventually see a second life when it went viral among Tom Waits fans on YouTube almost 30 years later.

The VAS is a single frame video device for pre-testing animation drawings before they are committed to film for final production.

[4] In February 2024, Lyon Lamb won an Emmy® for Technical and Scientific achievement, being recognized for Pioneering Development of Inexpensive Video Technology for Animation.

During that same period, Lamb also designed apparel for international companies Adidas, Nike, L.A.Gear, Puma, Body Glove, Bugle Boy, Jimmy Z, Maui and Sons, Hang Ten and Bear Surfboards, among others.

They produced and created many original content shows for clients such as Disney, Universal, Nickelodeon, Sun Woo, Hanna-Barbera, Cartoon Network, MGM, and Sony.

The film was shown for the first time since 1980, and honored with a gallery opening dedicated to the art, animation cels and drawings from Tom Waits For No One.
