Join us for a panel discussion in our David Geffen Theater featuring the Production Design nominees. 

Learn about the work of production designers who bring the visual world of a screenplay to life. They work closely with the director and producers to create the design style for sets, locations, graphics, props, lighting, camera angles, and costumes. 

Gain insight into the process of balancing the creative vision and the logistical aspects of making a film. 

Before the panel, join us during the day in our Sidney Poitier Grand Lobby for a showcase of items from the nominated films, including concept sketches, reference materials, and production stills.
