Mr. Harvey,
Before I begin, I would like to thank you for taking time for answering our questions.
The first question I have is this: I am recently during my final week of film school, on the verge of graduating, and I am working on my Art Direction portfolio. And since props fall into art direction and production design, what items or details do professionals such as yourself look for in the work of someone who has stepped out of film school and starting out in the field of filmmaking? And is there any advice for someone starting out, like myself, you can share?
My second question (more of a topic) is this: though most props requires designs and sketches, have you ever created a prop from scratch without the use of a design or sketch? Has that prop ever come out the way you pictured it? And has it ever turned up in a production (and if so, what production)?
