According to the trailer for the film, the dancing girls seen in the movie are "The Watusi Dancing Girls" from Hollywood's Whisky a Go Go club on Sunset Boulevard.
The surfing footage used for the scene where Richard runs a film for Mark was shot by one of the most prolific surf filmmakers of the 1960s, Dale Davis, who produced Walk on the Wetside (1965), Inside Out (1965) and the landmark The Golden Breed (1968). For some release prints, the footage was printed in color.
Most of the interior shots - specifically all those of the Lindsay home - were shot at the Brentwood residence of Henry and Shirley Rose at 816 Glenmere Way in West Los Angeles. The Roses were friends of the producer, Ed Janis, with Shirley Rose also being the film's art director. The office scene was shot at the business office of Henry Rose.
All the sculptures and the "Kingsley the Lion" puppet used in the film were created by the actor who played Mark--Walker Edmiston, the host of "The Walker Edmiston Show", a children's television program in Los Angeles that featured puppets of his own creation including Kingsley the Lion.
