Plaid Tuba Interactive Mural Video

As part of Gallery Night in July of 2008, Finn Digital participated in videotaping the creation of an interactive art mural produced by the community.

Sponsored by the Plaid Tuba Project, local artist Reggie Baylor along with ArtMail Milwaukee members and the public worked hand-in-hand to complete this unique wall mural using colored pencils. The piece was donated to the Catch a Rising Star Foundation to draw attention to the work they do in supporting and sustaining the Milwaukee High School of the Arts.

Check out the video:


Bill and I (along with our production techs Dan R. and Laura S.) got to not only capture this event for posterity in video (through both video production and editing) but also took part in the art! If you watch carefully, there are two quick shots us in the video.

It was great being able to support the local arts community and be a part of a great interactive project.

Yes, today our boss Bill Finn turns the big 4-0!

We decorated the office and got him the appropriate birthday attire for the day. There's also a great pic of him enjoying his birthday treat: Cream Puffs from the State Fair. Enjoy the rest of the photos.


Here's one birthday wish from the Miltown Kid:

Scouting Leadership in Milwaukee

I recently attended a Leadership Breakfast for the Boy Scouts Milwaukee County Council. It is remarkable to see how many (600+) business and community leaders attended. All of them were scouts or have been involved in scouting in some way.

Finn Digital helps on the Marketing Committee for the Milwaukee County Council, and prepared the following video segment, which was shown at the event to stir up some memories and emotion just before attendees were asked to fill out their pledge cards with donation amounts.





Pretty effective tactic!

I was impressed at the diversity and degree of fellowship at the event. Equally impressive was the schedule - start at 7am, out by 9am, with a program including an astronaut, CEO of Briggs and Stratton, a radio personality and a managing partner of Ernst and Young.
