Utah Shakes!

After a long cross-country drive, I find myself again in beautiful Southern Utah.  Here is a picture I took last year in Zion National Park:

 It's great to be back here and I can't wait to get started.  So far, we have a fabulous team of Scenic Charge Artist Katie Fry and her Assistant Jennifer Blazek, and Scenic Artists Natalie Lape, Daina Cramer and Me, and Junior Kelsey Lueken.

We are doing three shows in the Randall Theater:  The Music Man, Noises off and The Glass Menagerie all designed Jo Winirarski.  The designs are elegant and I am excited to see them realized. 

One of our first projects is the portal for Music Man which consists of signs about River City.

We made transparencies of the rendering and projected them onto pieces of MDF already cut to shape.  Line up your center and data lines, and double check the heights of letters with a scale rule against the rendering, but also the far left and right to make sure the projector isn't turned ever so slightly.

The fonts were fun and there were plenty of curly cues and the like.
