blood. I asked how this team prepares for all of this and so much more. And like any family during the holidays, the answer came back to two things: great leadership and a lot of foresight preparation. "It's truly a team effort. It starts off with Alayna Bell-Price, our Costume Designer, with her vision and leadership and us keeping that vision while also making sure the actors are comfortable and safe. Lots of communication will happen between the set team and office team and it's all of us coming together to make the costumes work for everybody," explains Moe. I think it's important to note that Alayna Bell-Price started in Season 1 as a 705 Trailer Costumer, so she knows through firsthand experience what the set team needs in this environment of constantly moving sand. Joe mentions that the key in the preparation process White Long Sleeve Shirts Day on 9-1-1: (L-R) Alayna Bell-Price, Isabella Gama, Gabrielle Giarrusso, Arin Thompson, E.

Alayna Bell-Price Costume Designer Alayna Bell- Price says of her crew, "I feel incredibly lucky and blessed to work with this talented crew! Not only are they dedicated and hardworking, everyone is so lovely and supportive of myself and their fellow crew members. They take on each day and each challenge fearlessly and they inspire me to do my best each day. We have become a family and I'm so grateful for them and every day player that comes in and helps us. They are the BEST crew ever!" for him is "starting by reviewing the script, documents, and outlines closely. Anticipating challenges, staying alert, and flexible to handle changes or adjust plans. Having backups and thinking both micro and macro on everything." Then adding: "A lot of the scenes are visually intense and emotionally charged, and the costumes need to reflect that while still being safe, functional, and camera- ready. It's a delicate balance of time management and turnaround." Tiana adds that on her side of things, the best thing she can do to help prepare with these bigger set pieces is to scour the entire city for "multiples and fiber content" because when it comes to playing "with fire," fiber content is the difference between a safe burn and a trip to the hospital, and it's that kind of thinking that keeps everyone safe. While talking to Moe, I discovered not "What makes 9-1-1 special are the people. The cast is always a pleasure to work with, and the crew is the best in the business." — M O U R I C E " M O E " M A R T I N MOTIONPICTUREC O S T U M E R S .O R G 25
