It’s Autumn time in Florida, which means warm beaches, cool ocean breezes, and cold refreshing drinks. Sure, Florida may have the same weather pretty much all year long, but that doesn’t mean that we can’t enjoy a little bit of the Autumn holidays. With Halloween just around the corner, you may be looking at decorating the yard up a bit to impress or possible scare some trick-a-treaters. Sure you could throw some spiders on the porch or a skeleton in a rocking chair, but why not do something…

Trick or Treat! More like a trick. “Katie!Katie!” I called as I knocked louder and louder. And finally Katie opened the door. “Trick or treat!” I said. For halloween, my friend’s Katie and Thao would go trick or treating with me. Katie was a lovely princess, I was Dorthy from the Wizard of Oz, and Thao was an evil witch. Katie’s mom gave me some tasty candy. Then we picked up Thao and got some yummy chocolate coins. Finally our little group was complete. After that we went to the apartment in…

Halloween from a candies point of view is waiting to be chosen by someone from a bowl, and being put in a bag. Some pieces of candy get lucky because they are at the bottom of the bowl, and might not get picked.

They think they’re safe, but little do they know is the people are going to eat them. The candy start to hear talking, “Jordan what kind of candy did you get…

Out of all the trips I’ve been on, the Disney Cruise trip was the absolute best. The ship was Halloween themed so there were bright orange pumpkins everywhere, the characters from Disney were even dressed up and they also played spooky Halloween music. My family and I went at the beginning in October of 2016. We stayed at Cocoa Beach for a night, Disney Cruise and then went to Sea World for a day. We went straight to Seaworld after we got off the ship. The prices were pretty reasonably good for…

Knock knock “trick or treat” “Hey guys!!!..wait wait hold up hold up aren't you all a little too old to be be trick or treating?” “Are you not too old to be giving out candy to kids?” Halloween is a time for the community to go out into the streets and ask for candy and share new experiences with their friends and family.

Costume design techniques and styles may have evolved through the centuries, but the principles of costume design have remained very much the same. Costume design plays a critical role in almost every film & television production to this very day. Costume designers endeavor to enhance a characters persona for the audience or viewer, in order to help establish the time period…

What practice or habit do you wish the Costume Designer would stop doing? A. What is the practice or habit? The Costume Designer has the tendency of leaving her work to the casts or the Production team. For example, once she obtains the costumes needed for the production, she will entrust the duty of taking care of the costumes into the Assistant Stage Manager’s hands. She did not turn up for all the show dates, thus the casts have to take care of the costumes (washing/drying on their own).…

How to Transport Professional Mascot Costumes Safely Professional mascot costumes can be a huge investment for many businesses. Well-designed, marketable mascots need to endure highly active use for a minimum of four to five years, and often cost $7,000 to $15,000, and upwards.
