About me

Welcome!

My name is Chayale, I am an award winning production designer based in NYC.

I am a Brooklyn College graduate, with a BA in Film Production. I’ve led the art department for numerous productions, both narrative and commercial.

I construct sets from scratch and/or style locations. Based on the size of the project, I bring in some wonderful set dressers and partners.

Along with curating props, I work with a myriad of mediums; sculpting, painting, sewing- to create anything the set needs. Often I work with other painters, florists, seamstress’, etc. to outsource more particular items.

Also I am a nice, friendly person. If you care about things like that.
