There's no place like home (or a theming company like ours)

It's 12:40 am Friday morning and NYC's Madame Tussauds decides they need an over sized pair of the world famous Wizard of Oz's Ruby Red Slippers in order to celebrate the launch of The Wizard of Oz Cinema 4-D experience in New York that coming Tuesday.

So who does one call to deliver such a HUGE pair of shoes?

Who else, but the King of Huge: US: Themendous. (Tremendous Theming)

The whole sculpture process took us 2 days Saturday and Monday for the Tuesday Morning on site installation call. Wow only 2 days you say? Hell yeah! We are certainly no strangers to those types of deadlines and we don't fool around when it comes to our theming. (well, we do fool around but that's what keeps us on our toes!) The 3D foam sculptures were delivered on time and set up for get this: 90 minutes! WOW you say, but that's all that was really needed to help get the word out about the 4D experience in the Big Apple. In fact, when the AP bulletins made their ways, one single photo of our now world famous over sized shoes got close to 4 Million hits on the internet alone!

Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2011 PREVIEW

One of our latest projects: Our Victoria's Secret PINK dog mirror balls make their appearance in this youtube video at 4:19 in. We made a total of 8 dogs at 3ft long each. We then scored the internet for pink glass tile suppliers and cleaned up everything out there. Yes folks, there are NO MORE pink glass tiles available. This was a great and challenging project to say the least, as there were the usual delays that happen when you take on not only a custom project, but a prestigious one as well. Everything had to be spot on to Victoria's Secret Pink Brand. The usual multitude of emails, texts and conference calls between our shop, the local production studio and the VS France office took place. Once we were off and running with our sculptures, we needed to find the pink glass mirror tiles and as mentioned above, there were not many out there and all needed to be special ordered and cut to our specifications. Those tiles then needed to be overnighted, or we would not b

Beard styles to chose from

So this is where you guys get to have some fun. Remember, the style with the most votes wins and I will hold on to that style for at least 1 month (maybe more, if I like it). But remember the rule is that you have to donate directly to Give Kids the World . They have a several easy ways for you to do so. One last thing... I am a publicly seen person in several places. I am also a member of my town's school board of education so, I WILL have to "sport" the look that gets the highest vote. To register your vote, simply make a comment on this post and the tally will be there for all to see. Now go. Go and donate whatever you can. As little or as much and don't forget to spread the word to all your social network friends! Thanks. Giovanni Calabrese This is what I used to look like before the beard! Man, I need a shave!
