Walt Baby Love Promo
BAGHDAD -- Here's a little pub I did promoting a radio shout out campaign for the syndicated shows 'The Countdown' and 'Gospel Traxx,' hosted by Walt Baby Love. I had one low resolution image of Rev. Love to work with, and absolutely no video. So, that meant. . . cheesytime!!! And that is fine with me.
The background: all I did was make some stripes in Photoshop, do a polar coordinates effect, and place it over an old paper texture in an After Effects composition -- smacking on a overlay layer blend property. Then it's time to rotate the stripes in the AE comp.
The other stuff: It's called Google Images, and it works well when you're trying to find an old school radio mic, and something that looks like a typical office phone.
The early '80s production music and the bleeding red text: When it's cheesytime it's cheesytime. And I even skimped on the cheese here with the music, the 'never-ever use ever' bleeding red text and the spinning stripes to give it a lo-fi, 1981, rough around the edges look, literally.
