I started working on the video for the song “No Escape!” from my forthcoming record “Bits”. It is an animated video set in the world of the Atari 2600 and other early video games. Hmmm … really it’s more of a King’s Quest <\/a> … Sierra<\/em> … type adventure game. I loved those games and always wanted the worlds to go on and on. <\/p>\n

You could walk around in those games and interact with objects and environments by typing in commands. I think that is how I learned to type … (It certainly wasn’t from Mr. Gregory in 6th grade typing class).<\/p>\n

… anyway … I decided on some the Atari dogma that I will use (and avoid) for the picture.<\/p>\n

\n1) All comps will by 1920 X 1080 square pixels (this is not<\/em> Atari)
\n2) I will use a 256 color pallet (this is not Atari – it had 128 colors, but it is easy to set up 256 color space in Photoshop)
\n3) Atari “Pixels” will equal 20 x 20 square pixels\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Going with the widescreen format will help delineate the Atari world in the video from the standard 4:3 world of the classic video game. <\/p>\n
