I remember we went through over a hundred gallons of paint, and very sore arms. \u00a0We had built a plastic lined pool to contain the mess, but ended up wearing quite a bit ourselves. \u00a0The music we used (if I remember correctly) was from &#8220;Madam Butterfly&#8221; and the tag line was &#8220;A Beautiful Splash of Color&#8221; (corny, I know, but not quite that bad for the 80&#8217;s).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=UApPoi98Wfg\">Flying Paint<\/a>\u00a0Footage.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dmgraphicsdesigner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Frame-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-398\" alt=\"Frame 1\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dmgraphicsdesigner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Frame-1-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dmgraphicsdesigner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Frame-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-399\" alt=\"Frame 2\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dmgraphicsdesigner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Frame-2-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dmgraphicsdesigner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Frame-3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-400\" alt=\"Frame 3\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dmgraphicsdesigner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Frame-3-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After a VERY long time, I&#8217;ve been searching for a copy of a television commercial I created for Glidden. \u00a0I came up with a concept and then had to figure out how to make it work. \u00a0This was way before digital animation. \u00a0I&#8217;ve yet to find the finished commercial, but I did find some of [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[15,17,44],"tags":[50,45],"class_list":["post-396","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-graphic-design","category-graphic-visualization","category-video","tag-graphic-design","tag-video-production"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dmgraphicsdesigner.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/396","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dmgraphicsdesigner.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dmgraphicsdesigner.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dmgraphicsdesigner.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dmgraphicsdesigner.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=396"}],"version-history":[{"count":14,"href":"https:\/\/www.dmgraphicsdesigner.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/396\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":425,"href":"https:\/\/www.dmgraphicsdesigner.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/396\/revisions\/425"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dmgraphicsdesigner.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=396"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dmgraphicsdesigner.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=396"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dmgraphicsdesigner.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=396"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
