Set Decorator Tara Stephenson SDSA on Decorating for Television
WestEdge Design Fair 2016 - November 5th, 2016
Interior designers have the luxury of interviewing their clients to get a sense of the environment they will create. Set decorators must develop characters from reading the script. This panel covers the process a set decorator undergoes to take characters from the page to the stage, creating environments for the story. Depending on the character, a set decorator must go into cutting-edge retail or look to a future that does not even exist, therefore setting trends. Four renowned set decorators share their stories. This is how they do it. Moderated by: Ruth Tooker, Architectural Digest Featuring: Rosemary Brandenburg SDSA (Kingsman: The Golden Circle (2017), The Hateful Eight, Transformers: Age of Extinction, Unstoppable); William DeBiasio SDSA (Pretty Little Liars, Famous In Love, Chuck, Melrose Place); K.C.
