Your Space – What do you need?

You will need either an inside or undercover space, or marquee to install your maze.  The darker the environment the better as the paint glows under the UV light.  If your visitors will be walking around, we recommend a ‘maze’ design with some twists and turns over a ‘corridor’ design.  This is because the artwork is best viewed front on, especially if viewing in 3D (with glasses).  This also makes it more fun for the visitor heightening the disorientated feeling, plus can help get the most out of your space.

If you like the idea of 3D but would like the option to add glasses in the future, please let us know before your artwork is painted so it can be painted with the colours in the right places.  There is no additional cost to having it painted for viewing in both UV and 3D but please note if a maze is not originally painted with 3D in mind, this cannot be changed at a later date.

Pricing:

Designs are painted onto 8’ x 4’ (244cm x 144cm) 12mm hardwood ply panels.  The most common orientation is portrait to allow your artwork to be floor to ceiling and really get the most out of it but landscape is also possible.  Painted with spray cans and finished with the airbrush for detail.

The backgrounds are matt black ensuring the vivid colours of the UV really pop!  Suitable for interior use.

Bespoke Quote:

Onsite Painting – If your maze is already there and you would like it painted in-situ, ie directy onto your walls, please give us a call to discuss the project and for a bespoke quote.

These options don’t quite match my vision

We’ve put together a general pricing guide, but with such a wide variety of shapes, sizes and creative ideas, naturally not everything fits into one tidy category. If you’re dreaming up something wider, unique or outside of the box, we’d love to hear about it. Get in touch for a personalised quote.

Prices exclude delivery

Production & Delivery

Once you have decided on the sizes of your panels, number of designs you would like and your theme, let us know your ideas and we will put some design sketches together for you to sign off before the artwork is painted.

Your artwork will be painted in our workshop and couriered to you or can be collected free of charge from Billingshurst in West Sussex.  If your maze is already in place, onsite painting can be discussed.

Getting the most out of your event!

Extras

A walkthrough maze as a standalone is a great edition to your event.  If you want to go the extra mile, you could consider adding dead ends, secret doors for characters to emerge from and allow them to get around the maze easily to add ‘scares’, and the assumption there are more actors within the maze than there are.

You could add:

• Hanging fabric to walk through,
• UV reactive cobwebs,
• UV reactive spiders,
• Wobbly or fake bridges,
• Mattresses on the floor,
• Textured walls,
• Props,
• Mannequins,
• Animatronics,
• Vehicles,
• Obstacles,
• Tunnels
• Tripped sound effects to suit your audience,

The more you do, the better the experience for your visitor, the more they will talk about it, they will remember you, recommend you, and come back to exeperience it again, or see what new thing you add next!

Lighting and Sound

We can recommend a UV lighting supplier for purchasing, or an event tech company to hire and install the equipment for you.

To ensure you get the best out of your event and to really bring your whole maze to life, we highly recommend you also add a soundtrack to the space.  This can easily be done inhouse, or our recommended tech company can also supply this for hire.  There are many websites where you can find free or purchasable royalty free themed background music to suit your target age or theme.

Costume

Ensure your in-maze characters or actors can be ‘seen’.  We can also recommend a specialist UV costume maker.
