hayleyegandesign: Over the moon to be able to report that 3 projects I have recently had the privilege of working on, have received 4 design award nominations for categories I was able to contribute to. . Congratulations @gypsytaylor for being nominated for APDG costume design awards for both the McCrispy TVC and for the sensational cult series Our Flag Means Death S2. . Thank you for getting me onboard Our Flag Means Death S2 specifically for the iconic merman tail creation. Being donned the crown "mermaid Lady" is going to go down as one of my all time career highlights. . What invaluable experiences, I am grateful for the opportunity to contribute to these projects. Well done to all the crews, it's great to see these talents being recognized and acknowledged. And thanks to my team as always @an.introduction.to @metmobile @aline.opereira @creativetradecollective @rafaelvalladao

David Finnigan's Deep History at The Public Theater NY Shakes Us to our Core as He Rewinds the Climate Crisis Ingeniously

David Finnigan in Deep History at The Public Theater, NYC. Photo by Joan Marcus. The Off-Broadway Theatre Review: Deep History By Ross This isn’t so much theatre, but more like a wake-up call. Or possibly and more accurately, Deep History, a play written and performed intelligently by David Finnigan, is like a snooze alarm going off once again, for the umpteenth time, after going off time and…

hayleyegandesign: Team work makes the dream work! A shout out to all the players on team-merman for @ourflagonmax@rafaelvalladao 3D sculpted our scales in brazil. @metmobile printed the scales here in our studio and @an.introduction.to our master mould maker made fibreglass moulds into which we began casting casting and more casting.... 3000 individual scales in multiple colours with an array of glitters from @mysticartglitters ... so so so much GLITTER! How cute does my man @metmobile look, delicately dusting glitter into scale moulds 😍 Then our lovely @homemade_byaline would come to the studio every evening and patiently trim excess silicone off scales with teeny tiny nail scissors late into the night. While this was all going on @thecreativetradecollective babes lent a hand with meticulously painting silicone scales onto our lycra tail skins (sewn and airbrushed by yours truely of course) The idea was to have a combo of hand painted silicone scales and fully cast silicone scales. The end result was SEAMLESS!!! And again.... more glitter. And I basically had my fingers in all these pies, sculpting, painting, sewing, liaising with our talented designer @gypsytaylor , casting, mixing, sparkling, sourcing, delegating, sleeping (no... no not sleeping!!!) Ironically myself and @an.introduction.to probably did the most hours, but we didn't get any fun posey photos with our work!!! Always the way!!!! And last but not least, we had a freediver Jose come and test run our fishy wares in my swimming pool (my neighbours must think I'm so weird!)... more photos to come of our resident merman.

hayleyegandesign: Work in progress shots. In honour of tonight being the final episode drop of @ourflagonmax for your viewing pleasure, our lovely in-house free diver Jose testing out our work-in-progress (also loosely fitted) merman tail (designed by @gypsytaylor and handmade by myself and my team) We needed to make sure it was swimmable and wanted to see how the fabric and silicone fin would behave. It behaved WILDLY!!!! Wildly beautiful! Lots more bits and bling were added after these shots not to mention fitting to the actor.

hayleyegandesign: First step to getting this mermaid tail for @ourflagonmax flipping up a storm was fabric dying. Watery tie-dye for both the skins and the fins. My tools included custom made mermaid "ironing board" and matching custom scale templates. Airbrushing all these scales on multiple tails, front and back, row by row... time consuming! But it gave me a perfect guide for where to place every silicone scale and provided an extra level of shading to make those silicone scales POP!

hayleyegandesign: Let's talk all things mermaid! The catfish is out of the bag now that the amazing mermaid (or should I say merman!) scene in the gorgeously hilarious show @ourflagonmax season 2 has made a massive splash. I'm so proud to be able to say that last October myself and my team here @hayleyegandesign constructed these merman tails from scratch, designed by the talented @gypsytaylor costume designer for the show. Now I can finally share the amazing journey that was our world for a whole month in 2022... and for those that know me... they know that all things mermaid have been a part of my identity since I can remember. It's needless to say this was a job I'd been dreaming of doing... they don't call me the mermaid lady for nothing 🤣

hayleyegandesign: Making the fluke! A little fun fin engineering! The desired end look for our @ourflagonmax mermaid tail fluke was flowy goldfish inspired. Part silicone and part fabric. I sculpted the silicone portion of the fluke which I specifically designed to create natural flowing movement in the water. It worked better than imagined! Fibreglass moulded by the lovely @an.introduction . We cast dragon skin silicone with gorgeous pearls and glitter layer by layer, multiples for multiple tails. Though this was serious business in the workshop, I can tell you... there was a lot of squealing 🤣 . Also I can't resist another pun... it was specifically designed to flow in the water... it wasn't a fluke 🤣🤣
