Host & Producer Marielou Mandl (@MarielouMandl) interviews Gary Kordan!

Gary Kordan, the Emmy-nominated production designer who has made an indelible impression on the world of TV comedy. Gary is one of this year’s heavyweight Emmy contenders thanks to his work in constructing the on-screen worlds of three award-winning shows:

· Nobodies, produced by Melissa McCarthy and Ben Falcone, TV Land

· Teachers, executive produced by Alison Brie, TV Land

 
· Just Add Magic, critically acclaimed Amazon Original Kids series
 

With Nobodies and Teachers being TV Land’s top original series, Gary can talk about rewriting the parameters of design in comedy TV and how he has created the mysterious, layered vintage and surprisingly dark look of Just Add Magic (and how the kids contributed).

Emmy-nominated for Key & Peele and The Late Night Show with Stephen Colbert, he is also known for his work on Time Traveling Bong, The Meltdown, @midnight and Workaholics. Soon viewers will also see his work on FOX’s new comedy, Ghosted, premiering this October, starring Adam Scott and Craig Robinson.
