Visual Storytelling: Costume as Character Design

Costumes are more than clothes, they’re character, context, and story. Learn how what we wear on screen speaks before we do.

About the Workshop

This 3-day workshop is designed for anyone curious about the role of costume in cinema, whether you’re a filmmaker, designer, writer, or simply someone who loves stories told through image.

What You’ll Learn

 You’ll learn how to build a character through costume, from the inside out.
