Articles like this make me so excited for the future. I want to be apart of this one day. I want to be able to say that I worked on the Super Bowl’s halftime show. How freaking cool would that be! I thought it was really cool that they used the Texture Hopper gun to texturize the set and give it a different finish. I would like to know how different the set might have looked if they had only painted the set rather than texturized it. How much more does it cost to texturize a set compared to only painting it and is the added cost worth it? I didn’t notice when I was watching, I was more focused on the lighting of the Halftime performance. I thought the infinity wall was incredible! That mirror room was a really cool design (but I thought it was strange that they went for that design during the pandemic because of social distancing) I will have to continue to look into TAIT Towers and PRG as possible employers for the future
