Yes, Virginia

Considered for an Emmy Award ( Production Design ) we worked closely with Director Pete Circuitt to create his production and character design for this 22 minute Christmas special that is aired perennially on CBS and is sure to become a well loved classic. Working very closely with the director, we helped developed his very specific character design, production design and modeling for the show.
