Book Cover Animation, “Oswald As I knew him”

http://www.mattkprovideo.com/2025/05/18/book-cover-animation-oswald-as-i-knew-him/

This is an un-authorized animated version of the book “Oswald as I Knew Him” written by George de Mohrenschildt (Author), Michael A. Rinella (Editor).

I did NOT do the actual book cover design. I downloaded the book cover artwork off of Amazon.com and cut it up into layers in Adobe Photoshop.

I mainly used the bezier pen tool to isolate the objects into layers. Some of the letter were isolated with Photoshop’s “Magic Wand” tool and other I just typed in using the IMPACT font ( heavily modified through scaling and kerning).

I imported the Adobe Photoshop (dot PSD) file into Adobe After Effects and animated them.

This piece of motion graphics may be used in a future podcast.

HERITAGE OF NONSENSE, Book Trailer

A Heritage of Nonsense: Jim Garrison’s Tales of Mystery and Imagination Paperback –

by Fred Litwin (Author)

A Heritage of Nonsense contains nine stories that illustrate Jim Garrison’s malfeasance, his paranoia, and his conspiratorial mindset. There is a commonality that runs through this book: the insidious nature of conspiracy theorists, gullibility that stretches the imagination, and a smattering of mental illness. For the first time ever, you’ll read about the East German Stasi files of Richard Case Nagell, a man who desperately needed psychiatric help; the truth about Rose Cherami who supposedly had foreknowledge of the JFK assassination; a gay rights activist who channeled Lee Harvey Oswald at a séance; a Las Vegas entertainer who became a suspect in Garrison’s investigation because of one phone call; and the search for a lost map of Dealey Plaza. I even solve a longstanding JFK assassination mystery. And a whole lot more.

You can buy the book on Amazon:

Editorial Reviews

Review

“In the late 1960s, New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison spoon-fed the public scenario upon scenario of implausible JFK assassination conspiracy theories, many of which have been adopted by well-known Warren Commission critics. Using actual evidence, clear reasoning, and common sense, Fred Litwin masterfully debunks many of the more popular vignettes of Garrison’s theories. A Heritage of Nonsense is a must-read for anyone who wants to be properly informed.”
— Robert A. Wagner, Author of JFK Assassinated: In the Courtroom: Debating the Critic Research Community

“For anyone harbouring lingering doubts that Garrison was a deluded charlatan, this book nails that coffin shut tight. With a strong commitment to first-hand testimony and primary source analysis, Fred Litwin is the highest form of amateur investigator writing about the Kennedy assassination, setting the record straight against the leading peddlers of conspiracist nonsense. Fred’s meticulous research, his compassion for the victims of shameless witch hunts, and his low tolerance for paranoid hogwash, make him a formidable opponent to anyone who places their ego and ideology ahead of clear facts and sound logic.”
— Michel Jacques Gagné, Author of Thinking Critically About the Kennedy Assassination, and host of the Paranoid Planet podcast.

“No reasonable person can possibly take any of Jim Garrison’s conspiracy theories seriously after reading this book. Good job, Fred Litwin!”
— David Von Pein, Author of Beyond Reasonable Doubt: The Warren Report and Lee Harvey Oswald’s Guilt and Motive 50 Years on [with Mel Ayton]

”Litwin exposes JFK assassination absurdities the way The Amazing Randi exposed spoon bending illusionists. His latest is a necessary source book illuminating an abomination in US history where a libel was cloaked in an enthralling conspiracy theory. Litwin challenges us to ask ourselves: do we want the truth or to believe what feels more exotic than the truth?”
 Eric Dezenhall, author of Wiseguys and the White House and Best of Enemies [with Gus Russo]

I was a Teenage JFK Conspiracy Freak

mattkprovideo.com/2022/12/18/i-was-a-teenage-jfk-conspiracy-freak/

A Book Trailer for “I was a Teenage JFK Conspiracy Freak ” by noted Author Fred Litwin.

I did not design the book cover.

I took the book cover and cut it up into Adobe Photoshop layers and animated/composited them in Adobe After Effects.

The music and voice over elements were edited in Adobe Premiere.

Fred Litwin recounts how he became a JFK conspiracy freak at eighteen, and then slowly moved to believe that Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone assassin. This book demonstrates how the left and the right have used the JFK assassination to drive home myths about power in America. There is also the horrible persecution of a gay man prosecuted for conspiring to kill Kennedy, the ugly story of Oliver Stone’s homophobic film JFK, an exposé of conspiracy nonsense on the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, a look at how the Soviets tried to influence American public opinion into believing the CIA was behind the assassination, and the incredible secret why some JFK assassination documents must remain locked up forever. And a whole lot more.
