Bring delight to the residents of Melbourne - let's draw a dinosaur in the sky!

It's easy for us to become trapped by routine. If we were aware of every choice we were making throughout the day, we'd be paralysed by the magnitude of it. So we create habits, and we start to believe those habits are the only way life can be.

Sometimes we need to remind ourselves, and the people around us, that life is full of surprise. And what's more surprising than a giant dinosaur in the sky?

THE PRACTICAL BITS: 

Project Sky Dinosaur aims to generate $5500 through the Pozible crowd-fund platform in order to hire a sky writer to draw a dinosaur over Melbourne. The dinosaur shape will be visible within a 25-30km range, exceeding the boundaries of the Melbourne CBD.

NOTE ON THE FUNDING GOAL: 

Between the recording of the video and the launch of the campaign, we've received an adjusted quote for the skywriter, bringing down the final figure to $5500. The video does mention $6000, but it's now $5500. We're that little bit closer to glory my friends!!
