Designing for Thrills: Debbie De Villa on 'Trap', Concert Sets, and Film Design Challenges - Decorating Pages Podcast


Listen Later

Welcome to another episode of the "Decorating Pages" podcast. This week, I’m talking to Production Designer Debbie De Villa, who skillfully brought the suspenseful film of "Trap" to vivid life. In this M. Night Shyamalan thriller, Cooper (Josh Hartnett) and his daughter Riley attend a concert that turns out to be a trap for a notorious serial killer. Debbie takes us behind the scenes, unraveling the meticulous thought and creativity that went into contrasting Cooper’s wicked  nature with an environment nuanced by warmth and empathy. She’ll delve into how she used circular and geometric elements within the stadium to symbolize the killer's entrapment, heightening the dramatic tension. Additionally, Debbie will share her favorite set—the concert stage—where she designed a whole concert within the film, giving each song a different feeling using the four elements and evolving Lady Raven's character development. Are you passionate about TV and film production?
