Our very own Cal Loucks was #setdecorator for #MIDWAY which came out last winter. #PearlHarbor is well known in history for being the battle to begin US involvement in WWII, or was it the Battle of Midway? The second attack - 3 months later on June 4, 1942. #historyinfilm

[Burning Sofa @burningsofapod]

#InRememberance #PearlHarbor The movie was released in 2001 based on events that occurred on Dec. 7th, 1941. The design team still did an excellent job recreating history despite difficulties securing antique war machinery from that time period.

Would you have guessed the courtroom for #TrialoftheChicago7 was converted from a church just for the movie? #ProductionDesigner Shane Valentino gives elaborate credit to his team, including #SetDecorator Andrew Baseman for all the hard work put into this film.

Color speaks. #RedWhiteandBlue was an obvious but suble choice for #ProductionDesigner @Shane.Valentino for the set of #TrialoftheChicago7
