Inspiring, every time I see a shot of the Mint in all her swooping neon glory. It’s the animation that does it. Taking something as common and as simple as a single light bulb. Now multiply that by thousands and with some careful choreography you’ve now brought it to life with animation. Even though we lost the Mint signage, we are fortunate that this animation is a common lighting trick deployed on Fremont St to this day. Thanks for the reminder @las_when.
