I’m almost through the 2 week post job spiral. I always know it’s coming but it never gets easier. After being away for over a year on 3 different projects, I’m grateful for the work but have really missed my home. Trying to reconnect with my community is getting harder. I haven’t really felt like I have fully adjusted to living in Atlanta since it happened during covid without proper LA goodbyes or housewarming festivities. My film community is my forever community. No matter where I travel to, we are connected. Today I am at my house....trying not to judge myself for having too much stuff. Being able to live out of 2 suitcases for long periods of time, not needing more. Getting my doctor appointments in and squeezing in a vacation before I have to leave my home again. This lifestyle is complicated. The loneliness and fabulousness seem to cancel eachother out. Putting back together the pieces that I didn’t let come apart until the jobs were over. Being kind to myself. I’m doing my best.

Don’t forget!! 🧵🪡👗🥋🧥🥻👕

The Emmy submission categories for the costume dept have expanded! Last year the addition of Head of Workroom is being recognized. This is such a win for other members of the costume team to be acknowledged for their amazing work and contributions to the show. It takes so many talented people to make a tv show. This position is such a vital role in the design process and final outcome of the costumes. They work with the CD to bring their vision to life as well as being present in fittings with the actors. They sometimes also manage a team of other cutters/fitters and stitchers in which they oversee quality control and keep deadlines to make sure the costumes make it to camera on time. They literally bring the costumes to life.

Ever wanted to know how some of your favorite contemporary shows look the way they do? They set the new trends, showcase unique fashion brands and the Costume Designer creates the characters you love. The secret weapons behind these designs are their shoppers. Costume shoppers/buyers are the ones that are out in the world hunting and gathering these unique pieces. Their relationships with vendors and knowledge of resources are very important. There are many ways to gather these items. To name a few of them, there is thrifting, buying at stores, costume rental houses, and pulling at showrooms. During this conversation, we will discuss the process and some of the tricks of the trade. Our guests have worked on some of the biggest shows out there from Big Little Lies to Jupiter’s Legacy and most recently You’re Cordially Invited to name just a few.

As film people, especially costume people, we love to create things. We like to be busy. The illusion that if you’re not busy, then you’re not important is REAL. Especially during these times where work is far and few between. If you’re not being productive, then what are you doing? BUT let me tell you, you have no idea what is around the corner. I urge you to create space. Believe that things are meant for you. Financial stress is also real. I don’t want to dismiss this. But belonging and creating can come in so many forms. Anything can happen today, tomorrow or this week. Believe in infinite possibilities.
