In this episode we are joined by the acclaimed visual artist and costume designer, Ane Crabtree. Ane's substantial body of work includes her iconic, unmistakable designs for THE HANDMAID'S TALE (seasons one and two) as well as WESTWORLD (season one), and Apple TV's THE CHANGELING. As such, Ane has built a formidable reputation as a designer of the future and was described as one of Fast Company's 100 Most Creative People in Business in 2018, deemed so "for designing the apocalypse". Ane is a long standing collaborator with (previous guest of this show) Liam Young, including their most recent project PLANETARY REDESIGN which premiered at Venice Biennale in 2023. Ane also recently collaborated with Darren Aronofsky for POSTCARDS FROM EARTH which was made for The Sphere in Las Vegas. Her work reflects the rural roots of Kentucky and the rich influence of her Okinawan heritage as the backbone of her visual storytelling. In this inspiring and wide-ranging conversation, we discuss the theme of worldbuilding tand storytelling through costume design, includiing her work for THE HANDMAID'S TALE. We also explore Ane's creative and collaborative process, her journey from rural Kentucky to the peak of screen storytelling, the influence of her Okinawan heritage in her work and how she came to collaborate with Darren Aronofsky - and much more! About Ane Crabtree Ane Crabtree is a visual artist, painter, costume designer, and documentarian whose images conjure the hidden emotions behind the stories of memory, skewed reality, sense of place, and human nature. Her work in movies and television explores the use of deconstruction and dystopia, most notably in her original iconic designs for The Handmaid's Tale, seasons one and two. She is also responsible for The Sopranos pilot, Westworld season one, and Masters of Sex, seasons one and two. Inspired by the landscapes of reality, alchemy, nature, and direct documentation, Crabtree's approach to her designs explores the transcendence of the real, utilizing emotions as a conduit or emotional decoder for the audience. In 2018, Crabtree spoke at the United Nations, in support of the METoo movement, at the commemoration of The International Day to End Violence Against Women/Orange the World. She has been nominated for three Emmy Awards (2017, 2018, 2019)for her work on The Handmaid's Tale and Westworld (2016). She has been nominated for four Costume Guild Awards for PanAm (2012), Masters of Sex (2015), Westworld (2016), and winning for The Handmaid's Tale (2018). Her first solo exhibition was "Designs for Dystopia" at SCAD Museum of Fashion and Film, featuring her sketches, designs, and wall of inspiration from The Handmaid's Tale (2018). Her work for The Handmaid's Tale has been shown at pop up exhibitions for Vogue Magazine/The Public Hotel (2017), The Paley Center for Media (2017), and is a part of the permanent collection at The National Museum of American History at The Smithsonian Museum (2018). This work was also a part of the group exhibition, Designs for Different Futures at The Philadelphia Museum of Art (2019-2020), The Walker Museum of Art (2020-2021), and The Art Institute of Chicago (2021). Crabtree's work will soon be featured in a group exhibition, "Mother!" at The Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Denmark (2021). Her most recent collaboration, with filmmaker Liam Young, for the National Gallery of Victoria Museum's Triennial (2020-2021), at MAAT in Lisbon (March 2021), and at the Shanghai Biennale (April 2021) features costumes in the short film "Planet City", directed and produced by Liam Young. Planet City is the first "design for utopia" for Crabtree. She served as costume designer, producer, and costume director for seven international artists, including herself. Her costumes for The Handmaid's Tale are now in the permanent collection of The Smithsonian Museum of American History.

This week, I’m chatting with Natalie Bronfman, costume designer on 'The Handmaid's Tale' Season 3, Quibi series 'Most Dangerous Game' starring Liam Hemsworth & Christoph Waltz, and Season 2 of Steven Knight's brilliant Apple drama 'See' starring Jason Momoa.Along with those shows, Natalie has previously worked on 'Alias Grace' (also by Handmaid's author Margaret Atwood), mini-series '11.22.63', Netflix's 'Hemlock Grove', and 'Transporter: The Series'.

We also chat about some of the amazingly sharp suits she created from scratch for 'Most Dangerous Game', and joining the unique drama 'See', where she has to design clothes for blind characters in a post-apocalyptic world... again, just at a point where the number of costumes expanded by an extraordinary amount!If you'd like to hear more behind the scenes interviews, don't forget to subscribe to where ever you get your podcasts by searching for "Geektown Radio".

Sometimes costumes on television shows take on a life of their own. KYW Newsradio's Lauren Lipton talks with the designer of the Handmaid costume now on display at the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
JJ is a multitalented, empathically clairvoyant maker of protective and otherwise fine jewelries and uniquely designed pieces. An internationally recognized artist noted for her metalsmitheries, this lady was humble enough to not mention this during our interview, but just one example of those who are hip enough to wear her jewelry are case in point one Elton John's recent favorite band according to his online playlist, The Comet Is Coming (who we caught at the Sinclair - @cometcoming on twits - can be seen wearing JJ's work on and off stage) ~ I'm quite a fan, to say the least. Exciting to add that several of JJ's pieces will be seen in an upcoming photo shoot in Italian Reve Magazine featuring Ane Crabtree, the costume designer for The Handmaid's Tale, Westworld, and an upcoming Apple TV Series as well! She's the best!
