Morgan Stanley Gets Versatile
Chicago Scenic recently designed and built a modular set for Morgan Stanley’s regional directors’ meetings. The set traveled to meetings in Las Vegas and Miami. Project Manager Rick Boultinghouse worked with David Swift and Robin Trew of Productions Unlimited to complete the project on time and on budget.

CSSI Designer Robert Kovach used Productions Unlimited’s “Building a New Business” concept to create a set that looks like a high-rise building during the final stages of construction. The set consisted of a series of painted panels that were made to look like concrete slabs and wood appliqués made to look like oxide red I-beams, complete with gussets and rivets. Images of a skyline were digitally printed onto vinyl backdrops to depict a view of the city from above.

The set was created with hidden seams to allow for greater flexibility in breaking down and reconfiguration. The set was so versatile that it was used not only for business meetings but also as a backdrop for banquets, classroom sessions, and even for live entertainment. The set had three video screens, one placed in the center of the room for presentation graphics and two side screens were used to project images of the speaker.

Job Lead Tim Steimle supervised the job through the CSSI shops and led the installation process onsite.
