INK & FLICKER — ORIGINAL ARTWORK AND ANIMATION
Creator: Guiles Works / Jesse Guiles
Revision: 9, 2026-10-02

The admission ticket and film projector are original AI-assisted decorative characters created for this website. They are not archival cartoon characters. The theater backdrop was generated for the same project.

Art direction: a warm 1930s theater, ivory and black ink, restrained red velvet accents, expressive theater-object mascots, gloves and rubber-hose limbs. No historical copyrighted character was requested as a reference.

The stage performance is a custom offline canvas animation encoded as silent 24fps MP4 films for desktop and phone. It is not generative AI video. The scroll position directs the film; the Play button allows ordinary playback.

Revision 9 repairs the projector's hip and leg attachments, softens walking and bows, and uses a suspended screen, lens-aligned beam, countdown and the title On with the show. Film wear is a decorative effect: subtle grain, scratches, dust and brief changeover marks.

The original generated images and earlier versions are retained privately. Image generation does not by itself establish exclusive copyright or trademark clearance. No studio sponsorship is implied.

The historical screenings are separate from these original decorative assets. See RIGHTS-REVIEW.txt and the Sources section for the exact works and their source records.
