Welcome to the WWSD Podcast; weekly we share discussions. This week Josh and Seamus are joined by Costume Designer Val Halverson. Val had worked on some of our favorite shows like Stargate SG1, Stargate Atlantis and Stargate Universe. We discuss how she moved away from the fashion industry to get into the costume design industry, skills she used from the fashion industry, how costume are created, where she gets her creative insight into characters for their costumes, starting on Stargate, working with military liaisons, budgeting for costume designs, creating costumes for non-humans, the popularity of cosplay, and being type-cast as a sci-fi costume designer. As always enjoy!
