About this episode

Costume designer Olga Mill discusses her journey from Ukraine to New York and her work on projects like Beef and Hereditary.

Beef costume designer Olga Mill, who moved to New York from Ukraine at age five, studied costume design at New York University, then worked on indie films including the Kristen Stewart-led Love Lies Bleeding and writer/director Ari Aster‘s Hereditary before teaming up with “Sonny” Jin. She tells The Credits, “I like to think of every project as if you’re going into a different pot of soil. As a designer, you have to figure out ‘Okay, what kind of climate are we in here? How do I grow something?’ Working with Sonny on Beef, I felt like this was very fertile soil.”
