So You Want to Work in Set Design, Costuming, or Make-Up?
Headed by production designers and complemented by costume designers and makeup and hair artists, the art direction team is a diverse but vital component of filmmaking.

Through art direction filmmakers can quickly tell the audience the who, what, where, and when of storytelling, and sometimes even the how. Guiding readers through all the ins and outs of working in one of the most creative industries today, this book is the perfect introduction to a career in set design, costuming, and/or make-up.
