Community Mural Weekend: Projecting & Outlining Wall Saturday July 25!
Art+Community | Grassroots

Making Art happen!

Saturday night we had 2 different projectors, and 2 generators going at either ends of the wall at the same time.. As we lined up the image on each end of the the wall, a 10-20 person crew split up and sprayed outlines from the projections. After each of the 4 sections was projected we met in the middle at the 5th. The thing that took the longest for each of the 5 sections was the wiggling around of the projectors to get them proportional and lined up. Once the spraying began, it went quickly. We had the whole skeleton design of the mural guidelined out in 2 hours!
