blackpool tower circus

Blackpool tower circus

sins I was little I went to see the circus at black pool tower I always found it amazing for the route en the talent the effects and the props they used in there performances especially during the water performance this type of work I looked at as inspiration behind what I wanted to do witch was to make props that would be used to entertain hundreds of people and become associated with one of the biggest entertainment industry in Briton.

Blackpool tower now a days is known for Mooky and Mr Booo's as they are regarded as one of the best clown acts in englend as Laci Endresz Jr (mooky) started in black pool tower in 1999 when his father Laci Endresz sr retired. Laci Endresz Jr took on the job at the tower as Mooky he became an instant hit only doing the shows in the summer but mooky is also the biggest act in the tower sins Charlie Cairoli (1910-1980) and has been able to fill the tower for nearly every show as is mooky has helped the tower and has been able to pick up the baton left by the grate Charlie Cairoli.

Blackpool tower has been home to a variety of acts through the years like the trapeze act, air acrobatics, human staking, and a group from china known for there procion acrobatics through and over objects and the water show for the finale at the end of every show these are what has made black pool tower an existing peace of entertainment for the hole family    

my favorites Carlo's bakery

this is buddy and this is Carlo's bakery

Carlo's bakery is a cake shop in America that is world famous for the cakes that are made here.
Carlo's bakery has become the place to be if you're a cake or model maker being that they only except the best and to have you're name on one of these cakes is a massive step for a career in this business. Carlo's bakery has also been on TV showing them designing, making and delivering these cakes.
from watching this Carlo's bakery I learn quite a few skills that I used when making and designing cake's. the cakes bellow are just a few of my favourites and I've added links so you can see them being designed and mad for yourself.
 

 

 



episode 11 A Blindfold, a Bikini and Breathing Fire

The tiki mask cakes has got to be one of my personal favourites because of not just the detailing in the cake, for me it was the fire breather being able to blow the fire and have it look as if it was coming from the mask itself this is why it makes one of my favourite cakes.

check out how it was made bellow:

episode 2 Candy, Crash and Crisis
Season 4 (2011–12)

candy, crash and Cristals was another favourite of mine due to having a big sweet tooth but also the placement and detailing that went in to these pieces. when I say placement it probably just looks as if they took a hole lode of sweets and chucked them all over it that's not the case if you watch you can  see how all the peace's have there own specific place and they put in a few surprises like the ice cream with a face to liven parts up to look like an actual candy land extravaganza fit for any birthday.

episode 17 A Big Bumblebee & A Bossy Grace

the bumblebee cake was made to amaze this grate peace was made to not only look grate but taste delicious. the bumblebee cake was made with lights smoke and sound effects to give extra visual aesthetics to the peace that made this an all round fantastic peace.

episode 24 Chandelier Cake & a Christening

the chandelier cake was one of the hardest cakes that buddy and crew had ever made being that it had to dangle from the sealing but it also had working lights and lots of curled sugar glass that was then stuck into the cake so that the sugar glass would pick up the light and make it seem as if the light was streaming out right to the tips of the sugar glass this is one of the most revered cakes by Meany due to it being an up side down dangling cake and that is why this is one of my favourite cakes.

episode 32 Coffins, Costumes and a Cake on a Gurney

the coffin cake funny and a sight to behold this cake was made for a vampire initiation ritual that makes it extraordinary but it gets better this cake is one of my favourites as it was made based on one off buddy's crew due to the girl that ordered it thought it ideal that it look like a normal victim and pointed out the crew mate so buddy ran with it witch was funny to watch. they added in two puncher holes in the neck that looked as if he had been bitten but also with real looking blood that real gave it that realism that they were looking for and the detail in the coffin just set it off. creepy cool and funny makes this one of my favourite peace's.

props

 

props

 

I chose to put these props up because this is what I hope to do for my future and create peace's like the ones bellow I found these on instructables I like these props because of there detail and realism as you can see the R2 D2 isn't an exact replica but I like it any way because they have taken the original and changed it to what he likes this is what I fined better than most peace's taking an idea and adding your own flair to it that makes it stand out and this definitely stands out.

 

the good thing about finding props like this on instructables is that you can see how they have done it and improve are change how it is made getting ether better are worse results its all about trying new things in this filed of work.

 

looking at sites like instructables helps people like me trying to get into this field of work expand and even put a price on that expansion and techniques witch also helps. is anyone is interested in viewing are making any of these peace's I've put the links to these peace's just bellow.

tech

tech

 

iv always been a big fan of tech especially of stuff you can make yourself. I found these on instructables and thought they were just class because this type of stuff may be slightly pricey but what you get at the end is some cool tech without it costing an arm and a leg.

 

I fined these to be a good how to Gide on not just making these peace's bellow but also taking peace's from these and putting them into different projects in all learning a new technique.

 

I have put the links bellow if you want to make are learn new technique to put into you're own projects.



the paint ball mask I tried for my self this was useful at the time due to me doing airsoft and my mask was fogging up the fan part I would suggest that you use meshing over the side that is near youre face as that is what I did due to the closeness of the fan to my face I chose a thin meshing so it was easier to shape and so that the fan still allowed cool air into the mask.

costumes

costumes

 

the peace's bellow are what I found on instructables this web site shows you how to make the peace's bellow they show you how they did it step by step to make the costume and on some they even give you the prices of the peace's they used to make it and they tell you were to get it I like this website due to its Meany peace's and the way they make it so that you can do it your self really helps in my own work like the blue beetle costume I worked on before coming to UNI.

 

there are Meany ways and different ways on making costumes and this site shows you how to use these techniques some being more time consuming are more complicated but applying what these people show you to you're own work really helps.

 

I chose these three because of the divers but simplistic parts that make recreating these easier and faster but there are more complicated costumes that I will put up at a later date.   

 

if you wish to try and make these for yourself are just see the techniques that they used I've put the links for any one that is interested
