Video Progress - Post 2

So after building our green screens we decided it was time to paint our backdrop for the music video. The school kindly donated their large canvas sheet that they used for the school musical and allowed us to paint over it. They also kindly donated some paint materials and equipment from our art department as well as 3 of their pupils to assist us in painting the backdrop.
As seen in this image, this is the original painting on the backdrop:

We used the projector in the assembly hall to project the logo we designed onto the canvas and then painted over this in order to create a perfect recreation of the logo. We started off by painting the entire canvas sheet in black paint, but left small, almost seemingly accidental patches of the previous paint work coming through to enhance the grunge texture and appearance on the canvas. When this coating was dry, we painted over the projected image to add the tape and wings logo as well as the band name. Bands are so often seen performing either live or in music videos in front of a backdrop with the band name, logo or even album artwork. We wanted to follow this convention within our media product and this was the end result:
