Singing Choir

This turned out to be a pretty sizeable project, and it takes two people to move it around because it's so unwieldy and heavy, but it's been a popular part of this display for quite a few years. I don't use it every year, but because it uses rope light, it's super-low maintenance and fills up a lot of visual space.

I came up with a concept while sitting in the choir loft in church one Sunday morning, and I drew a little sketch in the margin of my program

I found a graphic on the Internet that was close to the vision that I had for the choir, so I made a screen capture of that.

I needed a way to enlarge the relatively small graphic, so I used a digital projector to project it up on a wall. I taped several sheets of newspaper together as my "canvas" so I could outline the elements I wanted to make in wire.
