Production designer of „Tom of Finland” and „The Master Plan” discusses the challenges that continuously evolving and changing script creates for the Art Department and the whole production crew. C. Olander: „The script continues to evolve during pre-production and filming. How does the art department deal with all the changes and hurdles that come with script revisions during prep and shooting? How to work with and around the changes? The lecture discusses how the production designer has to adapt during the pre-production location settings with the scripts. The modifications occur often due to the changing shooting schedule or varying budget necessities. The lecture is based on my experiences and focuses on the art department, namely set dressing and props.”
