Creatures of the Night - Ashton Lane


I had a great time working with Moose Corporations being a prop assistant at the 'creatures of the night event' on ashton lane. It was a long 8 hours starting at midnight and at 6am I could start to feel myself doozing but I kept a happy, hard working determined face on as I knew this was a huge professional event. Nikki, Jill, Jude and I had the task along with Nigel's wife and a girl named India to turn G1 bars/clubs into scary venues. There were van loads of props (some of the skulls had even come from some of the indiana jones movies) and as there was not a lot of time we had to improvise using any tools we could to get the right finishes! We turned 'The Lane' into a scary Vodoo Temple, 'Jinty McGinty's' into a general scary place with a grave yard out back and skulls,rats, spiders etc. dotted around inside, 'Vodka Wodka' was turned into a scary labatory, 'Brel' became a creepy burlesque film house and 'Nude/Radio' got turned into a derelict ballroom. Working on this event was a great experience, and I was so happy/lucky to get picked. I got to strengthen my team working skills, learned to become quicker but still professional when working against the clock and was great insight to were I can use my skills from TPA in the future.
