Adobe Illustrator CS2
I had an old illustration I decided to expand on. I wanted to add a blurred background to make the sharp vector character pop forward, and I wanted to add a logo.
I made a purple triangle and placed it behind everything. I rasterized the triangle and added film grain texture. I added zoom blur to get the speed effect.
The title text is LCD. I wanted the text to look like LCD numbers on an alarm clock. I copied and pasted two versions of the text behind the original. I moved one set slightly to the right and the other to the left. I lowered the transparencies, then changed the colors to add depth. I created a row of thin lines in front of the text. I played with the transparency and colors to achieve the T.V. lines effect.

The world needs more of them,
Hey Tanaudel, I agree! I've thought about creating my own little animated thing with it, like an opening sequence to a cartoon. Maybe someday. :)
This would make a great animated character. Love the hard edges-- really fun!
Ooooh! Sweet :)
