Designers:who and why?

Designers are the people who give each producion its look. They get direction from the script and director in how the production looks, from costumes to set peices. It is their job to make sure that all the peices are in place ready at the right time. They want the production to look it best to give the right mood and atmosphere.
They work mostly with the production staff but also need to contact the actors about costumes and how the set works. It can become frustrating at times when people don't see the behind the scenes work.
