The Final Result

As promised, here are some images of the studio set I worked on:



Here is the broadcast if you want to see the set in all it's glory! And of course hear the wonderful comments of President Clark (who I'm taking a class from next semester!).

Some fun facts for you that you don't get during the broadcast...

The glass bowl on the table between President Clark and Vice President Eyring was filled with Boston Baked Beans, one of President Clark's favorite candies.

Some bowls on the bookshelf were also filled with candy. Not my idea and I wasn't very happy about it. But I guess the bright colors were a nice addition.

They also got rid of the candles we had on top of the bookcase, which goes to show you that people will do their own thing anyway.

My favorite piece on the set was the globe but I don't think you really saw it during the broadcast. On every ocean, someone had scratch WATER HOLE. Awesome. I'm debating on asking to have it if they don't need it...

A Studio Set for BYU-Idaho

For the past month I have been pretty non-existent in the blogging world. Among other things, this has been due to having two jobs and keeping up in school while trying to have a life (more or less).

One of my jobs has been to design a studio set, with a friend in my interior design program. The set is being used for a broadcast from the president and vice president of my school (Brigham Young University-Idaho) to the alumni. The broadcast is today at 7:00 pm MST and you can watch it here:

It was great working on a real project in a real space, not just on paper. I will post some pictures of the finished product but for now you can look at the BEFORE pictures, to get an idea of what we started with...

Notice the half-done wainscoting job. Don't worry. We took care of it.


Two squares of carpet tile in the corner, a half-full (or half-empty, depending of your perspective) bookcase, and plants that were perfectly situated behind the seated person's head to create a green aura of shrubby hair. All of this and more has been improved upon.
