The Design Process
The design process begins with the vision of the individual who conceptualizes the theme. He/she will advise the artists of how the theme is to be executed. The artists will then begin sketches and will meet to determine which sketches are best suited for the theme, this process is simply called "sketching"
From Sketch to Cardboard Sculpters. The shack is where our builders and artists converge to bring to life that which is only a dream.
Individuals are encouraged to prepare their own pieces and supervision is provided for those in need of a little help.
Decorating or tricking up ones costume is the final step in the design process. Once the crepe paper has been laid over the cardboard or fabric individuals put their unique touches on the costume. These final touches are very important as they set each person aside and usually determines who looks the best.
HERE IS WHAT THE FINAL PRODUCT LOOKS LIKE
While there is no age stipulation, we attract persons ranging from ages 8 years old all the way up to 60 years. The majority of persons however are between 13 and 36 years old. Many families make up our organization from mother and father to children of the same family unit
