Oscar-winning costume designer Deborah L. Scott closes out THR’s special edition of Behind the Screen with a fascinating look at the unprecedented artistry behind the costumes in Avatar: Fire and Ash. Each design was essentially created twice: first as a real-life, tangible garment and then as a digitally realized on-screen version.
