The Three Painters

January 21, 2016  by Betsy Johnson

Type: Opening act, speed painting

Pros: The audience enters to a blank, dark canvas and within a couple of minutes three painters create a masterpiece. The painting starts with a series of brush strokes and over time grows to be a full caricature portrait of a famous person.

As an option, one of the painters can paint the portrait upside down and then spin it to reveal the finished artwork.   The performance is accompanied by live singers who perform a medley of popular songs.

Note:  There are other similar groups who also paint portraits but just to a music track without the live singers.

Cons: Based on the audience, the live singers can be a little forced if the selected music doesn’t connect to the theme or message of the event.

The length of the performance needs to be controlled. The longer this is drawn out, the less effective I think this act is as an opening.

Producer’s Notes: This is a performance that once you have seen it, you probably don’t need to see it again, but for a first-time audience it can work and definitely grabs the audience’s attention.

WPS held its Management Meeting at the Madison Mar WPS held its Management Meeting at the Madison Marriott South in Madison, Wisconsin. The theme of this year’s meeting was looking toward the future with ‘Vision 2030.’ Combining LED panels, titan tubes, and projection screens, we were able to keep the brand look and visual experience at the forefront without sacrificing budget.

We’re honored to be a partner of WPS for the last 8 years as show producers. For this event, in addition to handling pre-production and stage and lighting design, the Tri-Marq team was on-site managing all run-of-show duties

Coming together outside of work is one of the thin Coming together outside of work is one of the things we look forward to most at Tri-Marq. With so much of the year spent traveling or working remotely, it’s special to gather in person to build camaraderie, trust, and friendships that carry over into everything we do.

This summer’s outing took us on a Gameday Tour with @citytoursmke, starting with lunch at @bluebatkitchen and wrapping up with incredible views at @indeedmilwaukee Uptop. A big congratulations to this year’s G.O.A.T trophy winners, and a big “Thank You!” to our whole team for bringing their energy both on the road and off.
