[work-related] - More gig photos
Anime Central 2008 - Hyatt Regency O'Hare (Chicago, IL) - May 16-18 2008
(click images for slightly larger versions)
The center image (taken during the costuming competition, the convention's anchor event) should provide an overall feel for the look of the set, while the images to the left and right (from the convention's opening ceremonies) show the backdrop in greater detail in both warm and cool color schemes.
I remain extremely pleased with how well this design worked out. I only wish I had better photos of it: These images are screen-captures from fan-shot YouTube video. If heavily-compressed low res consumer-camera shots still manage to look this good, then I can sleep at night knowing that it looked ten times better for those actually in the audience at the show!
Enjoy.
