HBO, Insecure S3

Beginning in May, I worked as an intern within the art department of HBO’s Insecure under Production Designer Kay Lee. It was a great experience watching the production of an award winning television show from behind the scenes. As a member of the art department I became familiar with the importance of everyone’s roles and the value of a critical, creative eye. I was privileged to accompany the crew on tech scouts to numerous locations as well as assisting in the research that went into the staging of scenes.

Starring Issa Rae and Yvonne Orji, the show follows the friendship of two black women as they deal with their own real-life flaws while attempting to navigate different worlds and cope with an endless series of uncomfortable everyday experiences. Other series regulars include Jay Ellis, Lisa Joyce, Y’lan Noel, Natasha Rothwell and Amanda Seales.
