As a young child in the late 60’s, two of my favorite past times were acting out Bill Cosby’s comedy routine, “Chicken Heart” [based on a lost 1937 “Lights Out” radio play by Arch Oboler] with my younger sister in an old hollowed out Philco 41-280 radio cabinet…
… and organizing the other kindergartners to play Batman & Robin with me…
With this DS106 project I’ve combined those two fond childhood memories with my new found GIFing skills, and a little extra humor tossed in as Batman and Robin are running away from #$&%. Check out their other adventures here and download your own PSD file to play with.
Check out the Why’s & How’s of the behind the scenes production of the GIF!
