When world building, attention to detail is more vital then most of us can truly appreciate...On this episode we're back in the saddle with Apple TV+ and taking a look behind the scenes at their show 'Lessons In Chemistry'.Set in the 1950s, and based on the novel of the same name, the show takes us to the life of chemist Elizabeth Zott (Brie Larson) who is fired from her lab, and subsequently takes a job as a host on a TV cooking show.It's an ambitious and multi layered show that truly tracks the compelling evolution of feminism in the time period and allows us to revel in a complicated tapestry that was still trying to figure itself out.We had the pleasure of sitting down with Production Designer Cat Smith and Set Decorator Lori Mazuer about the complexities of the job, how they got into the industry and where the creative pay off of it all lands for them...Lessons In Chemistry is on Apple TV+ now.
