  1. I actually like this a lot! If I get the free time I might do up some renderings
  2. Landscaping takes a bit of time to get fully prepared and landscapers have their hands very full behind the scenes during this time of year, give em' some time and the park will be looking great! (I was on the landscaping team last year and learned first hand how much work goes into everything with a relatively small team). There was also a wind storm not too long ago that ended up damaging a lot of trees unfortunately and they have to be taken care of for guest safety.
  3. Ah! I put this together with my supervisor, thank you for taking a picture, I can't go up in the tower during work, I'm glad it turned out clean! Here are some progress pictures:
  4. I was assigned the back seat today and boy howdy, that was the roughest ride I think I've ever had on a roller coaster. It felt pretty alright on the new retracted drop, but otherwise I was ready to be done by the second tunnel before lift 2.
  5. Appreciate the feedback guys! I submitted a Playlist of projects I've been on, but havent cut an official reel which I'm now resolving (its tricky because some clients don't like the work I did for them being shared outside the official material). My biggest concern is not having the ability to resubmit any new applications like with past jobs I've had. I'm gonna work to resolve issues with a demo reel and will look into HR for future questions.
  6. Hey guys, I recently applied for a motion graphic artist position that opened at the park and this morning saw that I was reviewed and declined. In the past I've applied for other positions as well with the same result. For the current position I'm not sure if it was the result of not having a demo reel that I personally cut together or not (They requested a YouTube link for a demo reel, but I don't personally have a reel, just a playlist of projects ive been involved with). Is there a way I am able to re apply for a position like this if I do cut together a demo reel, or is there any way I can contact someone at the park to learn more about the position so that I can better fit my portfolio? (Edit: Also I apologize if this isn't the right place to ask, i checked other topics and this seemed like the right place)
  7. I've always loved the idea of Haunt Walk around characters, more characters that are special to the park like the undertaker heckler.
  8. There was a large truck parked down one team near the right most circle that night too with what looked like some wire tubes or something so that sounds about right.
  9. Little map update, this is where i saw the markers while out at work. Pretty sure its no big deal, a shuttle route of sorts would be the most major thing i would expect.
  10. Hey just wanted to update you guys, I clean the parking lot perimeter at the park and found markers all the way out across from tropical plunge down to 1 team way along the roadside. (No pictures though I like to keep my phone away at work)
  11. I love the amount or red caged lights showing up on the buildings, and the signs look great! The sculpted logos and raised text looks great, the whole area really looks to be coming together.
  12. Oh wow, i really love that Bat teaser art, never seen it before! I might take some time here and try to restore it as a poster!
  13. I just painted this Boo Blasters Poster for its 10th year at the park, and because its well, the greatest ride of all time.
  14. Agreed, worst case scenario we may see some things like future expansions pushed in date, or events being cut back (although not removed) in a bit to make up for things (Like haunt)
  15. If openings get pushed back i think its for the best. I personally would rather avoid going to the park (Or any of my planned park road trips) until i hear more positive news about the containment and control of things. While i dont see it completely going away this year, i would hope for things to start being contained after a few months. Its a hard call living just about 10 minutes from the park, but with my downtown classes being moved online and my girlfriends work preparing for working remotely i think its got the best to buckle down and be safe and keep informed.
  16. Assuming that these are not the official lighting package lights (Maybe maintenance lights since you would need them to light things up safely) I think it would be really cool if there are LEDs running the lift like Fury, but instead of being a solid line the light up animated from top to bottom to create a meteor shower effect
  17. Pretty sure its just cameras, the strobe warning is on all other rides with photos.
  18. I've seen what the cup bits look like (have seen bits from someone who has access to the site though i wont name names since i don't know if they should or not) and that's real. They just cleanly trimmed up the ends from one of the cut parts (you would just need some good cutting tools and like you said taking some time)
  19. Man I wish that picture was just a little more to the right so we can see the clearance on the maybe headchopper. But that's crazy low to the ground there!
  20. Thanks Don, cant wait to see the full time lapse!
  21. It looks like we have a train on the track!
  22. Im down for another angle of the park when it comes back up! I live nearby and would always use the Diamondback cam to determine how crowds looked by the ride line before heading over.
  23. Assuming another track piece is added to attach to the support today
