Piratize Yourself (FR.EE app)

With International Talk Like a Pirate Day about to set sail on the high seas on September 19 and The Pirates! Band of Misfits Blu-Ray(TM) and DVD combo available on August 28, iStoryTime is encouraging everyone to not only talk like a pirate, but look like one too with the new Piratize Yourself app.

Featuring pirate outfits from The Pirate Captain, Black Bellamy and Cutlass Liz, landlubbers can look like their favorite characters from the feature film. Piratize Yourself works with both the back facing camera to capture their parents or their friends as well as front facing camera to take a photo of themselves.

Ahoy Matey! Perfect for your little pirate fan and the only way to get a sneak peek of images and original audio from the 3-D animated film before its debut, The Pirates! Band of Misfits follows the luxuriantly bearded Pirate Captain - a boundlessly enthusiastic, if somewhat less-than-successful, terror of the High Seas. With a rag-tag crew at his side, and seemingly blind to the impossible odds stacked against him, the Captain has one dream: to beat his bitter rivals Black Bellamy and Cutlass Liz to the much coveted “Pirate Of The Year Award.”

Shiver me timbers! Now every day is “Look Like a Pirate Day” with the fun and silly “Piratize Yourself” feature that utilizes iOS 5 face detection to turn all landlubbers into a Pirate in real time. This feature is only available on devices running iOS 5 or higher.

Featuring Auto Play, Read To Me, and Read To Myself narration options, readers will also be in search of eight hidden treasures that they need to collect in order to win the coveted “Pirate of the Year Award.”
