Pawpetshow Set Builders Weekend: Helpers Wanted!
« on: 04.07.2022, 14:55:28 »

Hello everybody!

It's been a while, but finally we're back! As with all previous productions, we are going to produce our pawpetshow sets in one big group effort, since we only have one weekend to finish them :) That means, we need all the helpers we can get - tinkerers, painters, artists - if you can use a paint brush, jigsaw or screwdriver, you can help!

Typical jobs we have is: Priming panels with background colors, cutting out shapes, joining backdrop and prop parts, installing reinforcements, cutting out windows and adding door hinges ... there is plenty of stuff do. Our talented lead artists and craftspeople will tell you exactly what  you have to do. And if you are an artist yourself, the better, because we also need people who are able to instruct the helpers.

Usually it's a lot of work, but also a lot of fun :)


Do you want to volunteer? Just reply to this thread!

The workshop is going to take place

SATURDAY - 13-August-2022
SUNDAY - 14-August-2022


The full address of the workshop is:

Union Gewerbehof
Huckarder Str. 10-12
44147 Dortmund





We can arrange sleeping space in the area, if that's necessary. Food and Drinks will be provided.


Please reply in this thread if you want to volunteer, so we can plan ahead and provide food and drinks, and stuff :)

Token and I will try to come. We get our keys for our own house soon, so we will be busy with renovation.
But the house is 15 minutes away from the location by car.
So we can offer some sleep space. You only have to bring your own sleep-stuff like blankets, pillows and an air mattress. You can even sleep in a tent in our garden if you like.
There will be chaos and some moving boxes standing around. But the bathroom and the kitchen will be useable  :P


Update: The big move to our house will be at the same saturday...
So we don't think we will come and can offer a sleeping space. We are very sorry!

I would love to help out again as I really loved helping out the last few times <3

However, I would require a sleeping spot and will be traveling by public transport :)

Hi there!

While I'm not much of an artist, I'd still be happy to help! So if you need a helping paw just tell what needs to be done and I'll do it! I'm usually at least passable with most kinds of tools :)

I'm living close by, so I won't need a sleeping place. If need be, I might be able to host someone for the night (it's a 40 minute drive), but I can't provide a sleeping-surface (bed/couch), so we'd need to organize an air mattress or something like that I'm afraid.

It would be my first time, so I might need to get my bearings at first but I'm a fast learner :)

Hello!

In case you are still looking for more helpers, I’d like to join in, too.

Basically, I could just copy Dunkelpfote’s post: I have used most tools described above before and, while not being a professional craftsman, I think I could lend you a paw. I’m ready to learn what I don’t know yet and I pick up things rather quickly.
Accommodation would not be necessary for me, as I live nearby.

This would be my first time, too, so I’d be glad for a little assistance at the beginning.  :)

Hello everyone!

Got two quick questions as a first-timer: Is there a rough time when we should appear on Saturday so to not miss anything and is there anything we should bring besides our will to work?  :)

Thanks and see you Saturday!

Hey,

Start will be around 10:00 with Breakfast and 11:00 with actual work. (both days, Saturday and Sunday).
Saturday has Catering at 18:00 and we will stay until around midnight.
Sunday has only Breakfast, no second food break, and will end at about 16:00-ish?
We will have enough water, coffee, and softdrinks on site.

Stuff that you can bring with you:

Working Gloves
Sunscreen lotion / a hat (depending on weather, because we will work inside and outside) / something to wear if it gets colder in the night
a mask for spraypainting / glueing (...these days everybody has some FFP 2^^)
Snacks & Drinks if you want to have anything else than the stuff we provide
a Multitool / knife can come in handy if you have one
Clothes / shoes that can get dirty and can even get a permanent paint stain...
if you bring equipment / tools mark them with your name, people tend to use them and everything gets mixed up quickly

Oh, and please bring a plate and cuttlery for breakfast / Catering if you can so we can reduce the usage of cardboard and plastic stuff (but we will have them on site as a backup for you)
