A costume designer is like an author who weaves a story with threads instead of words. They study the time period in which the characters find themselves and selects the right colors and materials to make the outfits really “pop” on camera. They draw hundreds of sketches. They help the actors transform into heroes, and of course, they cut, trim, and sew miles and miles of fabric. Here are the top fifteen best costume designers according to Okolo Kino.
In this episode, we're going to talk about the greatest outfits in cinematic history and the people who made them. If you love “Fight Club”, “The Great Gatsby”, “The Grand Budapest Hotel”, or “The Wizard of Oz”, you are sure to find plenty of fascinating information in this video.

It’s easy to explain our tendency to adore actors. They are right in front of us on the screen. We associate ourselves with their characters and experience their emotions alongside them. Sometimes, we allow directors into the spotlight and into our hearts. But to do that, they have to either film a collection of phenomenal pictures or introduce something entirely new to cinema. But is the film only made up of those in front of the camera and those who yell “action”? No, it is more like a machine, which only moves thanks to hundreds of little mechanisms.
How much blood, sweat, and tears actually go into editing a film? How does the editing affect the final result and history of the movie? This documentary talks about the challenges faced when editing Star Wars, Apocalypse Now, The Godfather, Scarface, and literally every influential film in movie history. This is “Hidden Heroes”, a series in which I will discuss the people who create these masterpieces.

He went from "fat Cavill" to Geralt of Rivia, and from Albert Mondego to Napoleon Solo.  Why was he called Hollywood's greatest loser?  How did he land a role through Instagram and what did Russell Crowe have to do with it?  Henry Cavill is the hero of our new Okolo Kino episode.

This new Kolo Kino podcast is dedicated to the charming actor who set out to conquer Hollywood just 15 years ago. Despite this short – by Hollywood standards – career, Henry has managed to work with dozens, if not hundreds, of the greatest minds in cinema.  He is gaining ground and will soon take a bold new step.  We will gladly tell you about his achievements, shortcomings, and stratospheric career advancement.
