Ep 33 | David Wasco & Sandy Reynolds-Wasco, Production Designers - Part 2 (‘La La Land’)

Soundstage Access

We're so happy to be joined on the show by Oscar-winning Production Design duo David Wasco & Sandy-Reynolds Wasco, whose credits include COLLATERAL, THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS and LA LA LAND. In Part 2 of our conversation, we briefly talk about the history of Los Angeles in movies and the Wasco's experience trying to re-invent the city 11 different times (PULP FICTION among them)— before we shift our conversation entirely to LA LA LAND. The Wascos discuss how the Damien Chazelle musical was originally cast with two very different actors in mind; how the one-year production delay ultimately brought them to design the movie as we know it today; how the movie's score and dance choreography dictated the size of every single set; and much more. Don't miss Part 1 of the episode, where we talk about the Wasco's creative approach to films like Wes Anderson’s THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS and Quentin Tarantino’s INGLORIOUS BASTERDS!
