PROJECT: WALKING BILLBOARD
Now Casting in Winter Park / Orlando
The Pitch:
One of the nation’s most awarded custom tattoo artists has officially relocated to Winter Park, Florida. To mark the arrival of the Tattoo Robot, I am launching an elite, large-scale creative project.
I am looking for 5 specific clients to receive massive custom rate discounts (working entirely within your budget) on an exclusive arm sleeve or leg sleeve. In exchange, I get full creative control over the artwork, and you allow me to document your story.
Before we touch skin, I will film you at your craft, interview you (and potentially your peers), and turn your entire transformation into a cinematic 10–15 minute documentary, alongside short-form social media releases. These are full sleeves; the process will take anywhere from 3 months to a year.

A high-visibility bartender working in the Winter Park/Orlando area.

A comprehensive scene-by-scene sleeve incorporating exactly one defining visual element from every single movie in the franchise (yes, even the bad ones; I suppose I could limit this to just the JP movies, but I really want to include the volcano), built as a fluid, continuous narrative wrapper.
