Harvest Fair, Portlaoise

For the last 2 weeks of October I worked with John Dohany, an Artist and Set Designer from Portlaoise, constructing large scale props and sculptures for the Halloween Harvest Fair which took place in the centre of Portlaoise town. The event was a great success, i think somebody said there were around 3500/3600 people at the fair. Even on the last day there was loads of work to be done so unfortunately I didn't get any photos of the finished work. My main duties were prop builder and painter and John also asked me to make an animation that would be projected onto a huge moon that was probably close to 16 feet across and 12 or 13  feet high, this stood at one end of the area.
