Time frame to do this in was short , I had around two days to sketch roughs send them off , get feed back and cut the stencils out. Using thick card I measured and cut the piece out to fit to the scale of the wall. I then hand cut into some of the shapes to add texture and diffrence in tone. It took a while to get the stencils cut and so I decied a few days before painting that it would be quicked and easier to hand paint the branches of the tree onto the wall and to spray paint the trunk. So I informed the voluteer who was in charge of getting the paints of this idea so she could get the correct things, also this ment that the cost would be lower so would fit within the councils budget for the project.
The time frame to get the tree on the wall was around 3 - 4 hours. The council wanted it up and decorated by the clients in time for an launch event they had coming up later that week. I had help from the voulnteer at the council in sticking the stencils up and spraying them. But unfortunetly the spray paint she had bought ran out on the first few templains so she had to run out and buy some more while I got going on sticking the rest of the stencils on and starting on the branches. Luckely the voulnteer got hold of some more paint and we got most of the tree trunk done but couldn't get it finished so I came back the next day and finished the tree off.
Overall given the time frame I am happy with the outcome. Without some extra help getting it on the wall it would have been tight. Passing feedback was good and the council where really happy with the finished wall.
