Role: Asst. Art Director (Jill Guidote)

Show Runner: Gloria Calderon Kellett

Production Designer: Jennifer Deghan

Art Director: Alex Hajdu

During the summer of 2022 I was fortunate to replace the Assistant Art Director on the second season of Amazon Studio’s With Love. I working under Production Designer Jennifer Deghan and Art Director Alex Hajdu for 3 months, joining at the prep of the biggest episode of the season. It was my first television show at such a large scale. I learned the work flow of TV as well as the process and documentation of putting together Art Dept scope of work packets before tech scouts, being able to quickly survey existing locations during and after tech scouts, creating art notes for on location shoot days, becoming faster with my sketch up layouts, putting together Hardware sheets for standing sets and paint sample sheets for the Scenic painters.

My understanding of the process of television through the art department was elevated during the production of this show. I learned so much and became so much better at what I already knew how to do. Please take a moment to look at some of the process documents and photos on this page of standing sets. I show how I surveyed a location that had too narrow of a staircase for production to film a important scene at our shooting location. How I turned that survey into a sketch up floor plan, how our set designer then took my floor plan and turned it into a standing set with the direction of the Production Designer and Art Director. And finally photos of the final standing set for.
