The Art of the Shoemaker - Designing a Music Video

In the final episode of our series featuring winners from the 15th BFDG Production Design Awards, winner of the awards for Best Production Design - Music Video  Anna Riot talks to Jonathan Paul Green about the creative journey behind designing The Shoemaker, a music video for folk singer Tom Hickox. With a £600 budget and just one week, Anna crafted a shoemaker’s workshop from scratch, including a 6ft tower of discarded leather shoes for the climax. From sourcing props to transforming a Peckham location, she shares the resourcefulness and teamwork that brought this visually rich concept to life.
