Abraham Lincoln Faux Film Wiggle

Abe Lincoln, wiggle style. I wanted a kind of old film look with this one. I had to get creative, searching for any type of old film effect in Photoshop always turns up prints – which is cool, but ineffective in this format. So each frame has a different set of effects. They include a levels layer around the border to darken it up (which changes a little with each frame), a bit of splatter, and a grain (texture) effect. I think it adds a bit of realism, faking a moving image like it’s an old movie.

Then of course, the usual flipping between two frames, transitions between them, color layers, and some added movement in the eyes. Hope ya like!
