I had to work out that it was something that could move, without having everybody in spray painted leotards.

Sleepy Hollow had a lot of action in it, even though it was a fairy-tale movie.

The whole switch from film to digital has changed some of the ways I use color and the juxtaposition of light and dark. It's getting better with digital, the separation's gotten better, but I still feel like it's really flatter than film, so I do a lot of screening and subtle textural printing and painting on clothes for film to get it not to look flat.

I have assistants that use the internet a lot more than I do. I use the internet for photo research, but for me personally, probably just because of my age, I'm not that mechanically inclined.

I don't design my own clothes. It's so not what I think about.

I always carry pictures of my children and grandchildren, which is what makes it all worthwhile. It's great fun that my grandkids get to see the costumes in Alice in Wonderland or a doll with grandma's dress.

Every story is different, so what is a detail in one might not be in something else. Diversity is something I embrace and love about my work.
