All About Art Direction

Learn about the job of an art director on an indie film shoot. Whether your are a film director who has never worked with an art director or have an interest in pursuing work in the art department on film productions, this afternoon workshop is for you. As a film-and-theater artist working on productions of all shapes and sizes, Curtis has extensive experience at building outlandish sets, making convincing props and adding a bit of good taste to productions all over Seattle. Curtis will describe what an art director can do, how a director/producer can make effective use of a good art director, and explain some of the concepts and terminology so that you and your art director will know how to speak the same language. You'll get the idea of how to budget for your grand set schemes, and how to best stretch your dollar when your grand schemes get too ambitious.
