In an ever-shifting entertainment industry, we never stop learning. As we pick up new skills on every project, we keep enriching our designers’ toolkit. At the same time, we continue to rely on early foundational teachings that anchor our design process.
Production designers Laurence Bennett (The Artist), Julie Berghoff ( The Studio), and Jeremy Hindle ( Severance), will discuss their education process – formal and informal – and how it influenced their design path. They will share with host Bill Brzeski and the audience some of their core design principles, developed over years of practice, alongside new-found skills and knowledge they’ve acquired on recent projects.
The panel is part of Design Showcase West (DSW), created by the UCLA School of Theater, Film and Television. DSW features graduate student work from the nation’s top universities in production design, as well as costume, lighting, sound, scenic, and projection/media design.
