Check out the work we donated in this excerpt from NASCAR Angels. This episode featured Angels On Call, a charity organization who helps needy families with home renovation. While they were out renovating a home, unknown to them, we were wrapping their van. Andy Salcido and Will Mejia, our Design Director, ran point on this project and even get a little face time in the clip. Big shout-out to everyone involved and special thanks to NASCAR Angels for letting us get involved! Angels On Call loved their new wrap and it was a rewarding experience to be able to help them out.

bluemedia motorsports recently wrapped this amazing prerunner for Sickboy Customs. Good job to the entire team, this bad-ass ride is sure to be noticed flying down the desert racetracks.
Our newest addition to the bluemedia fleet - Mean Mug! This cart is soooooo handy. From setting up events or even hauling signs and banners to our vehicles. Mean Mug has many uses. You are probably asking Mean Mug . . . WTF? Everybody at bluemedia has some character and our vehicles are no exception. If you’ve seen our SWAT Truck wrapped with a flaming skull on it, then you’ll understand! A few weeks after Mean’s arrival we noticed how the front of the cart had the features of a face, mainly the eyes. From that point on, Brand Director - Chris Keal transformed the modern looking electric cart into a vehicle with a face. So I leave you with a quote from our veteran sales rep Andy Salcido “That is BAD ASS”

I’m sure this wrap design breaks all sorts of street laws here in the United States and even some in Amsterdam, but really cares! Bravo DDB!

Goodby Silverstien and Partners selected bluemedia to produce 24 NASCAR replica wraps to be used in the premier commercial announcing the change from the Nextel Cup to the Sprint Cup for the 2008-2009 NASCAR season. Heat and The Kingdom director Michael Mann got the nod to direct this one-of-a-kind spot.
In typical bluemedia fashion, the project had to be completed in 8 days. The blue crew hustled as usual to pull together the design and printing of over 1,000 graphic pieces to make these mean machines look exactly like their real world counterparts. Right down to the contingency decals and headlights, the bluemedia team worked with Michelle Mintz of GS&P to insure that each car was created to meet NASCAR and sponsor requirements.
As with every great action scene … there has to be a little metal carnage. We are proud to say that in this case … it was pretty amazing to watch our work get destroyed.
Here is the final one minute commercial
Congratulations to Goodby Silverstien, Mr. Mann and the entire creative and production staff, this is truly an exciting and theatrical commercial from start to finish.
Here are some behind the scenes photos of the vehicle graphic install and a great gallery of each stock car that was used in the commercial.
It’s not often that we see a Zamboni machine wrap turn our heads. Mostly because of the challenging angles and overall shape of the on ice vehicle. This ice resurfacing machine in Sydney, Australia’s largest ice arena was wrapped with a Schick Quattro Razor.
bluemedia is no stranger to these ice machines back in 2005 we wrapped a Phoenix Coyotes Zamboni machine for Ace Asphalt (Below). We designed , printed and installed this Zamboni machine to look like a asphalt dump truck. For added effect we even attached 2 chrome exhaust pipes.

It was the bluemedia Nationals featuring the NHRA on February 22nd at Firebird Raceway. As fans entered, ready to fill the stands, they walked underneath the first bluemedia banner towering above them in the entrance way. The fans roared as engines started and their eyes filled with the Nitrous in the air.
A second bluemedia sign lined up behind the starting line as our racecar, driven by Jim Head, was ready to tear up the track. The bluemedia skull was in almost every ESPN shot, along with a few great clients like Budweiser and Speedco, a spot where people were getting a closeup of what bluemedia can do as they toured the trailer.
Everything was down to the wire, but we over at blue were able to put together a great weekend full of fans, speed, and good old fashioned racing!
Thanks to everyone who made the weekend rock!
The second stop on the NHRA Powerade Series 2008 schedule, is the 24th annual Checker Schuck’s Kragen NHRA Nationals at Firebird Int’l Raceway outside of Phoenix. It was a full weekend of beer drinking, picture taking and people watching. Witnessing these cars blast down the track at 320 plus miles per hours is one of the most unique experiences in all motorsports.
These photos are of the bluemedia sponsored Jim Head Toyota Funny Car. We designed, printed and Right On Custom installed the lighting bolt design at the track on Friday. Overall Jim ran a great weekend making all the way to the semi finals. Then Jack Beckman in/ the ValvolineMail Terminal Series Dodge ended the bid of Jim Head’s

Vehicle wraps are printed onto an adhesive backed vinyl using large format digital ink jet printers. The graphics produced range from solid colors to photographic type of images. The vinyl is then “wrapped” onto the body. This technology is widely used in the commercial sector and would include public transit buses, widely seen on the streets, to the small and large business owners. Many companies have seen the value of this new form on non-traditional advertising.
