Volunteer Appreciation Display
USS Midway Museum
USS Midway Museum
The USS Midway Museum in San Diego, California is a US Navy Aircraft Carrier that has been converted to a museum. Integral to the museum's operation, maintenance, and development are a large cadre of volunteers, working in seven major areas. These volunteers make up close to 90% of the museum workforce. The image above shows the Volunteer Appreciation Display (aka: "The Vol Wall") in its final location before being retired and replaced by the new Volunteer Recognition Display which can be seen elsewhere in my portfolio.
I initially became involved with the project in 2009, providing planning for the video segments. But ultimately I assumed responsibility for the overall development and design of the exhibit display case and Duane Trammell took on the video production. Although very many people contributed to the effort, I want to especially thank Bob Cain who actually built the cabinet structure, and Duane Trammell.
This animated VIDEO CLIP of the 3dS Max model (above) shows how the display is designed with easy access for monthly maintenance and service.
