Double R "weaves" tale for Textile Museum

Double R Productions is taking members and friends of The Textile Museum on a visual journey through 19th Century Asia to 21st Century Washington, DC. The common thread: Colors of the Oasis: Central Asian Ikats, now on exhibit at the TM. Using thousands of photos, Double R’s superior editor Michael Gionis created a time lapse to illustrate the museum staff’s behind-the-scenes work on these 200 historic ikats. Produced by Double R President Rosemary Reed and coordinated by Double R’s Catherine Baum, the annual fund video features the museum’s director and board president requesting donations in front of the colorful display. Reed, Baum and Director of Photography Gino Bruno received assistance on the shoot from Double R interns Kate Burnett and Paul Jamali, who operated TelePrompTer. The video will be emailed to the museum’s contacts this holiday season to promote its annual fundraising effort.
