Typically July slows down a bit for us but thanks to two very large (and very cool) projects, we are running full speed into fall. A couple of weeks ago we got news that we won the bid for Art Prize signage (yeah, Art Prize). If you are not familiar with how big this is, check out the ArtPrize official website to learn more about the event. If you went last year you probably saw the orange logo everywhere around downtown....I can tell you this year will not disappoint. I can't wait to post some pictures of us in action! Right now things are pretty hush hush so there is more to come on that topic.
The other project keeping us busy is the movie 30 Minutes or Less that is being filmed here in Grand Rapids this summer/fall. Ben Stiller is producing and Aziz Ansuri and Danny McBride will star in the film. I can't wait to see this movie and point out some of the work we did for them. They filmed at Vito's Pizza on the West Side and needed new menu boards. We also printed some signage for one of the movie's locations "Major Tan" which was filmed at Mirage Tanning on Plainfield. Just this morning I saw them shooting at my fave hole in the wall restaurant Taco Boy! They are keeping us busy with a lot of fun little projects that I will share with you soon. This one has to stay on the down low as well so as soon as I get permission I will post some pics.
