Caption Ideas?
I’m not sure what got me going on it, but I was playing around with Adobe Illustrator and came up with this cartoon TV in the style of old ads and cartoons. Illustrator requires a different method of working than Photoshop, the program I’m used to, so I did this while experimenting with AI. Remember the “Let’s all go to the lobby” clip that they used to show at the drive-ins? That cartoon featured marching hotdogs, drinks, etc., and was certainly on my mind when I conceived “Mr. TV”. I included a word-balloon so that a caption might be added, but I haven’t been able to think of anything clever. So, dear readers, I’ll throw it out to you for consideration… what are your caption ideas? It’s hard to see in this small version, but he’s pointing with his left hand towards the top of the cabinet. He’s not finished, and I’ll probably add a TV lamp, so you might take that into consideration.

This was the first thing that came to mind…”Hey, Mister, you got a light?” It’s not the right caption, but made me chuckle. I Like the Mr. TV character!

Hey, that’s pretty good! I kept thinking of rhymes:
“A TV lamp will brighten your set,
and save your eyes as well, I’ll bet!”
Corny, but goes with the image! I’m glad you like Mr. TV… I may have to make him the official mascot.
