Amnesty delivers

We got the Amnesty International job all wrapped up today. It was pretty straight forward so there were no surprises.

I think it's gonna be a great ad campaign for them. When Shanghoon gets finished lighting and photographing it, it will definitely be a striking photo. It was a bit of a struggle working around all the wall panels we are building for this "glow-in-the-dark" adventure game.












23 panels at 4'X8' eat up a lot of room, especially when they are all spaced out for painting. It was a serious maze in the shop today, I got trapped a few times on the way to the office, or outside. It sounds like I'm joking, but I'm serious! I got lost. These wall panels will deliver on Friday(thank God). We also got asked to assemble and paint 10 'art director' awards for a company in Toronto. This was a SUPER last minute job. I.E, we got the pieces yesterday at 3 pm and they need them back by noon tomorrow! It went pretty good considering they needed to be painted and clear-coated with an industrial automotive urethane, then set into resin. The clear-coat needs at least 24 hours to harden, so the timing was crucial for painting/ drying/ casting. We managed though. The awards had miniature busts of famous composers mounted to them. As they supplied the pieces, we didn't have an 'ideal' material choice, we had to use what we were given. These busts were cast in porcelain, so we had to cut them in half with a wet-saw tile cutter. What an adventure! Due to the size, I couldn't use any of the guards on the saw, so I basically got soaked from head to toe with water from the blade. Next time, no porcelain please!
