It can be a struggle to plan for practical installation procedures when building for aesthetics. Timeline, budget, & weight all factor in. In this case, the UFO prop had to be liftable & fit through the bay door. #propbuilding #propbuilder #props #UFO #propdesign #proptech #art #sculpture #sculptor

Along with the rocket last summer, I also made an interactive crashed UFO with a viewing dome. At the time it was one of my biggest props to date. #propbuilding #propbuilder #props #UFO #Alien #Space #Scifi #propdesign #proptech #art #artist #sculpture #sculptor #builder #designer #graphicdesign

Fun challenge - our summer camp wanted dinosaur skeletons that could be broken apart and hidden for the kids to find and then assemble like a puzzle. These pieces are attach with velcro. #props #propbuilding #art #sculpture #propbuilder #educator #science #dinosaur #fossils #education #educator

Most of my prop plans start simple. A brand pack with logo, color scheme, and key descriptors are established first. Then props follow. Fall Fest is on the docket today with some big builds on the horizon.

Fun memory to round out the year. Me sitting on 150 degree asphalt waiting for a rescue when I locked myself out of my work truck at Home Depot. We now have a keyless truck. #solong2024

Entering the planning season for all of our events this year. Boring but necessary things are discussed first. Themes are then decided, then branding, & finally prop design. Themes are already set so now it’s branding time. This is one I created for our annual Egg Hunt a couple years back. #branding

This 1950s mini-town was a great way to end one of our hikes this year. So many different things Colorado has had to offer since moving to Denver.
