Amanda will walk you through how costume designers use historical research, character analysis, design elements, and non-verbal communication to bring characters to life. Along the way, she’ll share backstage anecdotes and the little bit of "practical magic" that makes it all come together.
You'll also get to put your new designer vocabulary to the test with a hands-on mini-design project. Choose an image and analyze what the costume communicates about the character—just through the look alone. Plus, bring your burning questions for a lively discussion!
