- TriviaAccording to an interview with Emil Sitka, he described working with the Synchro-Vox system used by Cambria Studios on the series. He said that they used him when they needed certain accents or eccentric voices. He would have makeup applied around his mouth, as well as obtrusively bright lipstick on his lips. He would be strapped in a chair with his head in a brace so that he would remain in the same position. They would then film his mouth as he spoke his lines.

Funky lips
I remember watching Clutch Cargo every morning before school. It seemed very strange, but for some reason I couldn't stop watching those real human lips. It was on one of the cartoon channels recently, and my son thought it was the lamest thing he's ever seen and feels sympathy for how I grew up. I recently heard an explanation for the odd animation, other than it was low budget. The creator's child was deaf and could not understand regular cartoons, since she could not lip read the mouth movements of animated characters. So he came up with the idea of using real mouths so deaf children could enjoy cartoons. The story has a ring of truth to it, but it could very well be apocryphal. If anyone can verify this, it would go a long way to explaining such an odd idea for kids' entertainment.
