LOCAL artist Matt Bonner has come up with an exciting new Christmas projection display for City Hall, which begins tomorrow (Friday).<\/p>\n
The building\u2019s Gheringhap Street fa\u00e7ade will come alive in an animated light show that will delight both young and old.<\/p>\n
Bonner, who studied graphic design and multimedia at the Gordon TAFE, has an impressive resume. He\u2019s developed projection displays at well-known events including Geelong After Dark, White Night Ballarat and Big Day Out.<\/p>\n
He was also behind the ANZAC Centenary and Reconciliation Week projections on City Hall.<\/p>\n
This year\u2019s theme will follow the journey of the Christmas star, evoking a sense of wonder and beauty and celebrating the magic of Christmas.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe City Hall Christmas projections are a must see regardless of age. It\u2019s truly an impressive display,\u201d city director of investment and attraction Brett Luxford said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis year viewers will see the Christmas star weaving behind and in front of City Hall\u2019s columns, then disappearing and remerging from the building\u2019s windows.<\/p>\n
\u201cStars will twinkle, snow will fall, the building\u2019s columns will magically transform into candy canes and children\u2019s Christmas wishes and dream sequences will be played out in a spectacular light show.\u201d<\/p>\n
The City Hall Christmas projections launch will take place at 9.30pm on Friday.<\/p>\n
After this, projections will run nightly from 8.30pm to midnight until January 8.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
