I came across several shelves’ worth of old drawings and designs tonight. This one was an artist’s impression for a proposal that the then Mac Teo (now Arcana) was putting to Croke Park for interval entertainment at the 2001 Hurling Final. The proposal eventually took life as this.
More to follow!
Did they use that in the St Patrick’s Festival Parade recently? Great idea! Next time you’re in Dublin, head in and see what they’ve done in the Wax Museum. *shudder*
They might well have done actually.
What’s in the Wax Museum?!
they seemed to go with a less vicious dog, which is a pity.
They did indeed, I think that was at the request of the client!
so the _;client;_ wants to water down Irish myths?
Well, that might be one way of looking at it. With corporate gigs there’s a lot of give and take between the two parties, and that’s just something you get used to.
Anyway, it was just an interpretation for a very specific purpose, and the original myth remains undiluted.
