tdc1245: Bride Throwing Cats
http://tdc.ds106.us/tdc1245/
@talkytina submitted this daily challenge and it was a hard one to resist.
I went for the extra @talkytina points and clipped the #priosoner106 cat. Reminded me of #noir106 cat. Not too cute or fluffy – a mysterious black cat. But in a world where points don’t matter – sometimes it is nice to go the extra and take the challenge.
I used the supplied footage from the directions of TDC – thanks for setting it up in infiniteLooper to the exact spot!

- Worked with a screen capture of the cat in photoshop and got rid of the background etc. and made it a layer of its own.
- Duplicated 3x
- scaled and sized to look like throwing
- Found photo with CC license of bride throwing bouquet and imported
- added it to each cat layer
- Timeline window – create animation
- played with timings
- saved for web as GIF
- added to Google Drive for sharing with “anyone with the link” can view.
- Open Google image in pop out window
- Go to more dots and grab iframe embed
- In wordpress switch editor to text and past code
- Save as draft
- Now the image GIF is embedded and resides in Google Drive. You will not see image in editor, only a gray box with a clip icon. Publish to view and see (below)
- Deleted first and third layer
- saved layer 2 as a jpeg and uploaded to Flickr (above)
