    “Enceladus” Production Design

    2025, Short Film

    Director: Isaiah Griffith

    Producers: Isaiah Griffith, Marley Hewitt, Simon Podliska, Dito

    Production and Costume Designer: Eva Kramer

    Enceladus is a short sci-fi film exploring corporate control of resources and water scarcity. The main set piece and structure was built previously by my peers as part of their immersive experience Capstone project. My job was to adjust, decorate, and add props and set pieces to transform the immersive experience into a film set that better reflected the script. I examined the script and redesigned the submarine set in order to fulfill the needs and the story and reflect the lived in feel of the submarine. I designed both the updated layout of the set and several new machines that were key to the plot. As the Production Designer, I led a talented Art Department team. I organized and assigned tasks, communicated between my team and the Director and Producers, and also designed and sourced the costumes for the film. I also assisted on set to make sure that the set and costumes stayed consistent. Throughout this process I worked with Arduino, Adobe Illustrator, and Procreate, as well as with physical tools and materials.

    2025, Student Film

    Director – Nicholas Langford

    Producers – Rori Johnson, Nick Langford, Lauren Kohtz

    Costume Designer: Eva Kramer

    I was the costume designer and creator for this fun and philosophical sci-fi film in the spring of 2025. The film had a handmade, retro aesthetic that borrowed many stylistic elements from 1970s and Grunge aesthetics with fanciful, handmade touches. I designed several variations of the costumes for the director and producers of the film to choose from. I then sourced many of the garments from local thrift stores. I also hand painted a denim jacket and crafted an asymmetrical dress that mimics a shooting star using mainly upcycled materials.

    The sets and costumes were displayed at Spring 2025 Open Studios at the Johnny Carson Center for Emerging Media Arts in Lincoln, NE.
