Rubber Hose Cartoon
Letters come alive as 1930s rubber-hose cartoon characters with pie-cut eyes, noodle limbs, white gloves and big shoes. They bob to an unheard beat on sepia film; for retro mascots, playful intros, music and kids content.
Prompt · replace [TEXT]
Tool-agnosticTurn the word [TEXT] into a troupe of 1930s rubber-hose cartoon characters. Each letter is a chunky rounded black letter with two white eye ovals holding pie-cut pupils (a small wedge missing) and a tiny white grin. Give every letter boneless noodle arms that bend in smooth arcs, puffy white four-finger gloves, noodle legs and big round shoes. Animate on twos, 12 drawings per second: letters hop in one by one, then bob and squash on a steady 120 bpm beat while arms swing and feet stay planted, then all strike a jazz-hands pose, and hop out. Background: sepia paper sky, rolling hills that bob along, rising music notes. Add coarse film grain and a soft vignette. Loop.
