Costuming Lovecraft
Schedule block

One of the things that can make or break a film is good (or bad) costuming. We’ll hear from people who do various styles of cosplay and costuming, from monsters to period dress pieces, talk about why they choose to make certain pieces and share some techniques behind it. This discussion can extend out to how to research and find period appropriate clothes for making your own films. LaRock (M), Bolivar, Lima-Steele, Hudson
