Description
I am so excited to welcome wonderful Production Designer Cheyenne Ford to the show today. We’ve worked together on multiple projects including Story Ave, The Caretaker, and The Eyes of My Mother. Cheyenne is also the founder and program director of Art Craft NYC, a program that provides knowledge and training to those interested in becoming entry level in the art department. Applications for the inaugural class are currently open until Saturday April 6th. Head over to their page to get more info!  We had a great conversation that covered so much ground, from mentorship and education to her design process to how much we love the library! And so much more.  --- Production Designer Cheyenne Ford Credits include: Shiva Baby | Story Ave | Miller’s Girl  --- Originally hailing from New Orleans, Cheyenne Ford is a New York City based Production Designer for film and advertising. Her eclectic art dept experience has influenced her process on indie favorites like Shiva Baby, the SXSW 2023 World Premiering Story Ave, and Lionsgate and Point Grey produced Miller's Girl starring Jenna Ortega and Martin Freeman. When she’s not on set, she’s often working with various organizations to educate and mentor newcomers interested in the art department. Most notably, she is set to launch Art Craft NYC, a month-long hands-on training program, with the inaugural class scheduled for Summer 2024.  --- Cheyenne Ford Links: Cheyenne Ford Website: cheyennedesign.co CF Instagram: @cheyenne_design Art Craft NYC Website Art Craft NYC Instagram: @artcraftnyc IMDb: Cheyenne Ford --- TFACD Links: Patreon: Tales From A Costume Designer Instagram: @talesfromacostumedesigner Twitter: @talesfromaCD TikTok: @talesfromaCD --- Whitney Anne Adams Links: Website: whitneyadams.com Instagram: @WAACostumeDesign Twitter: @WhitneyAAdams TikTok: @waacostumedesign Ko-Fi: @waacostumedesign --- Pay Equity Links: Pay Equity Now IG: @payequitynow Pay Equity Now TikTok: @payequitynow Costume Designers Guild Instagram: @cdglocal892 Local USA 829 Pay Equity Task Force Instagram: @usa829payequity Local USA 829 Pay Equity Task Force Twitter: @usa829payequity United Scenic Artists Local 829 Instagram: @unitedscenicartists United Scenic Artists Local 829 Twitter: @USA829IATSE
