Antique Chair Restoration

Antique Chair for Barber De Seville

This antique chair had a leg that was fully rotted through and needed to be reinforced and re-built. I also reinforced the seat to support a larger person and rougher use rather than just sitting on the chair as intended.

Large Ornate Oval Table

Legs were sourced from an antique table and modified to fit casters & brakes. The rest of the table was custom built to accommodate blocking and scenic designs.

Hagrid’s Fantastic Beasts Grand Opening

Scenery for Hagrid’s Fantastic Beasts Grand Opening and Press Event

We built custom scenery for the grand opening show and press event including press booths and tech booths that seamlessly blended with the scenic design. We also built several pieces with custom automation such as the stacked crate boxes, stone towers and small crates which “flew” out of the way when the magic cue was given.

Standing Candelabra

Pieced together from smaller candelabras, coat racks, and a hand turned piece that made all units come together for the final product. The bottom was built out to conceal the battery to run the lights at the top and casters to allow for easy transportation during scene changes.
