Anna pursued her passion for film-making and production design through the Master of Production Design for Screen course at the Victorian College of the Arts, from which she graduated with First Class Honours in 2015. Her production design on VCA short film ‘Under The Table’ (2015) was nominated for the APDG Best Student Screen Design Award in 2016.
Anna entered the Master program with a background in independent film and documentary making, vintage theatre design and photo styling, and since graduating in 2015, has worked full time in the Film & Television industry.
Anna is fascinated with World Building as part of Immersive Design for film, and her in-depth analysis of character and story, her careful consideration of colour, texture and shape, and her attention to detail, from the general to the minutiae, make her designs both evocative and immersive.
