‘The Flight Attendant’ Production Designer Sara K White On Giving Cassie’s Struggles A Physical Form By “Diving In Very Deep To The Mind Palace”
For The Flight Attendant, production designer Sara K White was excited to work on creating spaces to physically represent the main character’s internal struggles while dealing with a mystery thriller. Kaley Cuoco stars as Cassie Bowden, a flight attendant with a drinking problem, who wakes up in a strange hotel room in Bangkok, next to a dead body and with no memory of what happened. The episode White is nominated for, titled “After Dark,” has Cassie leaving the hotel room in her mind, only to be stuck in a different nightmare. This episode flashes between reality and fantasy constantly, so White needed to make sure the fantasy world was constantly changing with Cassie.
