    EXPLORING IDENTITY Emilio Sosa l Costume Designer Michael Griffo l Author/Educator ELA, Life Skills, Character Studies Grades l 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 FEATURING EMILIO SOSA • FASHION & BROADWAY COSTUME DESIGNER EXPLORING IDENTITY BACKGROUND ARTIST INSIGHT As a Latino, I’m influenced by the bright colors that’s evident in my Latin culture. I also grew up listening to great Latin music and being surrounded by aunts and uncles in their Sunday best. I can now look back and use those influences in a modern way. I think that style comes from within, not just the clothing you wear. Style doesn’t come with a price tag; it comes from knowing yourself and what works for you. I have a strong belief that hard work and dedication are the keys to success and that talent rises to the top. Any challenges I come across I’ve been able to overcome because of my strong will to succeed. My advice to anyone who aspires to work on Broadway or in the fashion field is to gain as much knowledge as possible. Whether it’s through formal education or internships knowledge is power. —Emilio Sosa, Fashion and theatrical costumer designer ABOUT THE EXPERTS SPECIAL GUEST: Emilio Sosa is a first-generation immigrant from the Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, and a graduate of the Pratt Institute. He discovered his passion for design when he was 14 years old and has since achieved his goal of becoming an award- winning fashion and costume designer. In 2006 he was the recipient of the TDF’s Irene Sharaff Young Master Award and named Design Virtuoso by American Theatre Magazine in 2003.

  • Costume Designer Costume Designer
    COSTUME DESIGNER A Costume Designer creates the clothes and costumes for theatre, film, dance, concerts, television and other types of stage productions. The role of the Costume Designer in the professional theatre industry is to design garments and accessories for actors to wear in a production. In this industry the majority of designers, specialise in both set and costume design, although they often have a particular strength in one or the other. READING THE SCRIPT The first step is to read this script, which can give direction as to what the characters are wearing. The script also gives an indication through the character’s personality and behaviour. The designer should consider the time period, the location, as well as the social status of each character. The designer would then liaise with the director to determine the time period and location (as they may change this from the script) and if there is any other style or element they want to achieve. It is imperative that the costume and set design have a cohesive look. BUDGET As a designer you will need to know your budget as this has a big impact upon the design of a production. It is cheaper to produce a contemporary show, so you can op shop costumes or buy them from a retail outlet. Often actors will provide bits and pieces from their own wardrobe on smaller budget shows. Period shows are expensive as most costumes will need to be made. These costs include fabric and trims and employing people to draft patterns, cut and sew them, all of which are labour and time intensive.

STAY SAFE AND OBSERVE SET ETIQUETTE POST-PRODUCTION (2 guides) EXHIBITION AND DISTRIBUTION (2 guides) PRODUCTION MASTER THE CAMERA Master the camera (camera shots, angles and movements) Top Tip Before you begin making your film, have a play with your camera: try to film something! A simple, silent (no dialogue) scene where somebody walks into the shot, does something and then leaves is perfect. Once you’ve shot your first film, watch it. What do you like/dislike about it? Save this first attempt. We’ll be asking you to return to it later. (If you have already done this and saved your films, you don’t need to do this again.) Professional filmmakers divide scenes into shots. They set up their camera and frame the first shot, film the action and then stop recording. This process is repeated for each new shot until the scene is completed. The clips are then put together in the edit to make one continuous scene. Whatever equipment you work with, if you use professional techniques, you can produce quality films that look cinematic. The table below gives a description of the main shots, angles and movements used by professional filmmakers. An explanation of the effects they create and the information they can give the audience is also included.
