Hollywood Production Designer Kalina Ivanov, whose projects include the critically acclaimed film Grey Gardens and the Oscar-nominated film Little Miss Sunshine, will discuss her work and provide film commentary as Stevenson University’s Spring 2014 Film/Video artist-in-residence, on Thursday, January 30 at the Rockland Banquet Room, located on the University’s Owings Mills Campus, 10945 Boulevard Circle, Owings Mills, MD 21117.

The event, titled “Behind the Scenes You Love: An Evening with Hollywood Production Designer Kalina Ivanov,” is free and the public is invited to attend. A reception will be held at 6 p.m., with Ivanov’s talk beginning at 7 p.m.

The presentation will consist of clips from the different films she has worked on as well as her own commentary and analysis.

Ivanov, born in Sofia, Bulgaria, has received both Emmy and Art Director’s Guild Awards. She is currently working on the new version of Poltergeist. Ivanov’s design philosophy is to immerse herself in the script, fully embody the characters, and reveal their history through color, texture and architecture.
