Anatomy of a Scene is a podcast where the people behind French film and TV walk us through their creative process.
In this episode, we talked to Riton Dupire-Clément about his work on the TV series Of Money and Blood, and with Emmanuelle Duplay for the film Emilia Pérez.
In this discussion, we look at the art of production design through two very different ways of building a world.
First, Riton Dupire-Clément, who shares his experience working on Of Money and Blood, a series shot entirely on real locations. With him, we talk about finding natural settings that subtly reflect a character’s perspective, in this case, the universe of extreme wealth and the meticulous work of dressing every detail so that social class is always present in the frame, visible yet never heavy-handed.
We also speak with Emmanuelle Duplay, a production designer with more than three decades of experience, who tells us how shooting Emilia Pérez entirely in studio offered a completely different freedom: the ability to invent everything. She describes designing sets like an architect but for characters rather than real people ; and the inspirations behind creating Emilia’s house, a space that had to feel true to someone who exists only in the story.
An episode about the choices that construct a world, whether it’s discovered in reality or brought to life from nothing.
