Production Design Blog-A-Thon: Preview



Jeremy P. Bushnell (mentioned previously in my post "Literature and the Internet") is calling for essays and thoughts on various film production designs/designers. The full details are listed at the website above, and it should be an excellent, though-provoking collection.

I will have other posts before this, but my essay on the film will be posted on either Monday, May 19th or Tuesday, May 20th.
