SANTA BARBARA, CA, UNITED STATES, October 29, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — Retro Message Studio, creators of the popular Retro Message app, are excited to announce a new addition to their digital video library. Retro Message, known for blending vintage black-and-white footage with modern messaging, now features clips of historical billboards from Times Square in New York City during the 1940s and 50s. This update offers users a broader selection of classic content to create and share.
Why Message When You Can Retro Message?
“Dedicated to the early pioneers of filmmaking—and the filmmaker in all of us.” Retro Message emphasizes historical media. The app offers a vast library of video clips reflecting traditional filmmaking styles of the 1940s and 50s. Users personalize their messages by choosing a retro soundtrack, adding a famous movie one-liner, or writing their own text — all integrated into a short, engaging video. Retro Messages are sent via text, email, or any connected app, a memorable alternative to standard messaging.
Experience the Golden Age of American Billboard Advertising
This latest update introduces a mesmerizing “drive-through view” of Early American Billboard Advertising, highlighting iconic billboards that once defined Times Square. Among the most notable is Douglas Leigh’s famous Camel Cigarettes billboard, which featured a smoker exhaling perfect smoke rings every four seconds, using steam from the Claridge Hotel’s heating system. Installed in 1941, this sign became a symbol of Times Square’s vibrant, ever-evolving cityscape. 1. 2.
