Marcos and the Stars

I had to do a Winter Constellation Show today for about 70 people (the room only fits 40). Pictured is Leo the Lion who is one of the stars of the show...

Give it the OI' Razzle Dazzle

I have a classroom for my department at the Hall- It's so boring- so I decided to give it some Blik Dazzle. This is only half of the project- I still have to put 20 more small Dazzles up.

Orginizing the Creative

Sometimes you have to organize creative materials. We have 15 years worth of creative materials in our storage space, which is an old film projection room up a spiral staircase. Here is an overview shot of us just doing inventory of craft material. It only took 11 hours of 6 people working nonstop...

What seems like an endless mess, turned up some unusual things: a box of cow hearts, a bottle of glow germs, a $300 spotting scope, 100 lbs of glitter, enough craft sand to make a small beach, and huge storage bin full of... storage bin lids that had been missing for years, causing us to buy more storage bins.

This was the danger of our old storage space. Carrying antlers up a spiral staircase can be a dangerous activity.

Next up... 5 years of theatrical supplies, giant Legos, building blocks, and hundreds of binders...anyone want to volunteer as an archival assistant?

Wrappin'

I have a friend who wraps presents at Tiffany's. I don't think that I could ever do that for 8 hours a day. It took me two hours to wrap four- but it was well worth it.
