dos pueblos costume images

hello all! forgive me if this comes off wonky--my very first time contributing to a blog. here are some images and accompanying thoughts for dos pueblos costumes.




I was surprised to find this image with such a similar eerie flatness and barren color palette as our set. of course this lady has little to do with our world but I like how her costume is neutral tones found in the set (golden browns, bluish and greenish blacks) but how her red purse pops. I think in a small space like milagro, we won't lose the actors if their base colors come from the set--and we could use key colorful pieces for specific characters

the next two images have a similar palette/overall texture and have some key "pop" colors



these next two are from an abandoned gas station. I just kind of love them.



here are some items that I've rounded up--some for specific moments, some that I thought we might find a place for. I know they look bright--but our projection will dull color quite a bit.


trying to solve the "flag that isn't a flag" problem--found these panels--too cute? I would need to screen a mexican flag equivalent--very limited on the mexican flag front.


I bought this dress for $5 and can be easily zipped or just worn in front like an apron--I'm not sure where it goes but the beading and applique reminded me of the virgin (below)

Digital print and projection concerns

Hi everyone, these first images compare the digital image for the wall, with the cars and windows and without the cars/windows.

These images show the 'projection' (in photoshop) over the set model. It's not really ideal for showing exactly how it will look, but...

This image shows the 'newer' backdrop without the cars and windows, with the 'projection' over it:

Video Camera train track fun

Here is some video showing Dave and Andy playing with the miniature camera on some model railroad tracks to see how well that would work...
