LeVar Burton

I have freelance work with Reading Rainbow Kidz making interactive children's books and have met LeVar Burton. He is a very friendly and energetic person. He read a cute book to the team and was kind enough to give me signed photos of his Star Trek character. This is certainly one of the coolest jobs I've had.



Halloween 2012

Halloween props from last year, built from paper mache. The bat has a motor for opening the mouth and lights. Turns out paper mache doesn't hold up well when you make large creatures without reinforcement, I ended up leaving the stuffing in the spiders to help maintain the shape. Next time I'll try using chicken wire as an understructure.

Decorations going up, spiders were the theme.

Large spider and pumpkins.

Kids seemed to like reaching in for candy.
