It’s Going To Eat You Up!

 

"It's going to eat you up!!"

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!

Run! Run! I forgot my meds again!

Talk about fun! Starting with the downloadable PSD file I was easily inspired to include my “horrible” thing for Batman & Robin to escape. A manic kitten? The “I forgot my meds!” pic had me rolling on the floor with laughter the 1st time I saw it. I can finally use it.

A big thank you to Michael Smith for tweeting out his new favorite meme and creating the new DS106 AnimatedGIFAssignments1162

I have a new toy to play with.

There’s an awesome Tumblr blog created by That Design Bastard filled with animated GIFs of Batman and Robin Running away from sh*t. The cool thing is the site posts a PSD file of Batman and Robin running with a transparent background so you can make your own. He even encourages you to submit your GIF to him for consideration. Time to get those two caped crusaders running scared!
