| Snow Falls on Hollywood for Fox Premiere |
| Ice Age 2 launched at Grauman's Chinese Theater covered in snow and ice. |
|
For the premiere of 20th Century Fox's animated film Ice Age 2, the iconic facade of Grauman's Chinese Theater on Hollywood Boulevard got a decidedly more wintery look than sidewalk gawkers typically see in sunny Los Angeles. Fox's Len Iannelli tapped Events in Motion to dress the location with 20-foot-high glaciers and create a pathway for celebrity arrivals via snowmobile. Union Ice Company provided snow for the event. (Events in Motion pulled a similar stunt for the The Day After Tomorrow premiere at the American Museum of Natural History in New York back in 2004.) Eight ice skaters from the Los Angeles Ice Theater skated and performed choreographed pieces to music from the movie. After the screening, guests moved to the venue's courtyard for a reception (covered with more falling snow) where they appropriately nibbled on ice cream and other dessert snacks.
