Today we took down (struck, in industry lingo) a stage set, banners, and backdrops created for the ‘Jimmy Jam’ event at the Fillmore in Charlotte. The stage was headlined last night by Darius Rucker (formerly of Hootie and the Blowfish) for the NASCAR and Lowe’s event.

These images show off the work of Gelbach Designs and SE Systems’ John R. Lewis together, making a really fantastic backdrop and many visual accessories for the event.

Ingenuity, Kinda

Our Shannon Russell has been called many things, ranging from boy genius to taciturn curmudgeon. However, until today, the most accurate was ‘the computer slayer’. You see, Shannon keeps his computer right beside the CNC routers, which kick up sawdust like Chuck Norris chewing through a tree. Needless to say, the computers in his area that run the CNC routers aren’t happy about this. The computers make everyone aware of their disgruntlement by dying.

Today, all this has changed. Shannon has used a damaged display case from a local museum to save his computer. (see image)

You might notice an odd sign at the base of his computer kiosk. Upon moving into our new building, we had to print up some OSHA compliant warning signs due to some of the chemicals and equipment we have here. At the time, we had an employee who was taking liberties with the internet. So, we changed a couple of the OSHA signs to provide him with warnings as well.

OSHA sign: Danger, flammable liquids stored here.

If you would like to have these signs in your place of employment, I have thrown the print resolution PDF files in a ZIP archive which you can download here.

Here are a couple of images showing one of our news desks in action. This one was created on the fly for the Miami based sports radio station WINZ (get it?). This radio news show in particular covered the NFL draft.

These are some images of work we did recently creating custom bookshelves for the Ruth’s Attic bookstore at the Billy Graham Library.  The custom shelving features attractive, rough-hewn wood panels forming the natural look that fills the counter intuitively titled museum. If you find yourself in need of custom book shelving, do not hesitate to contact us.

Comment on this post if you can figure out what’s wrong with the image at the top of this post.

Stage Set Backdrop

Stage Set Backdrop - Columbia Wealth Management

Last week we sent out a massive set for a stage presentation by Columbia Wealth Management. The main back wall is 16′ tall by 30′ wide, with scattered translucents in the field of color. Two foreground walls standing 10′ tall and about 8′ wide sported the company’s logos.

This set is going to be set up in Boston. We will be sending one person to make sure the stage hands don’t get it wrong, just to be on the safe side. As you can see by the images, setting this up will just be bolting a few frames together.
