Introducing 'Community' with Chalk and Mural Projects by Art for After Hours

Latest Project: ‘SUBMERGE’ Marine Science Festival at Hudson River Park Pier 84

Art for After Hours worked with the SUBMERGE Marine Science Festival Team to create an interactive experience celebrating the wildlife of the Hudson River at Pier 84 in New York City.

Chalk drawing boards were prepared for young children who learned about local wildlife then drew upon two of the three plywood chalkboards shown.

Anthony Cappetto (pictured) of Art for After Hours created a display piece on the third plywood unit featuring a kestrel perched on a branch, an osprey in flight, and a snapping turtle upon a rock in the river.

Check Out the 4D Pool Party!! Augmented Reality, Chalk Art

4D Animated Augmented Reality with 3D Chalk Art by Anthony Cappetto and Art for After Hours in Westfield NJ

Art for After Hours brought a full 4D animated augmented reality driven installation to the community of Westfield NJ using animated dancing characters, our own hand drawn AR overlays, and traditional hand drawn chalk art featuring this 3D party pool and a series of hand drawn chalk vignettes located around the downtown Westfield area. Some images were set up to have an AR component as part of our weeklong project.

We had a great time sharing our excitement about the blending of traditional art and emerging technologies with the visitors who saw and participated ‘diving’ and dancing with the animated, dynamic characters during the event weekend itself.

Over the last summer, Art for After Hours was asked to create a 3D street painting artwork to be used as part of a nationally presented commercial that is now in the public realm.

Our artwork as always, starts with a hand drawn sketch. Many of them were considered; then after refinements from the team, we came up with this idea and we were underway.

During our session, the sketch became a 3D street painting rendered on the surface in chalk.

The final commercial shoot showed the 3D piece in a view which worked with the Director’s vision for the results desired.

Although our portion was for a split second, we were able to be a part of a commercial with an important message and we are proud to be a part of this project. The production team was great and the project was fun as well.

Watch for the commercial in your area to see in full.
