‘Perry Mason’ Season 2 Production and Costume Designers Crafted 1930s LA Noir for the HBO Series | How I Did It

“The one mandate that we had from everybody was, let’s make this as real as we possibly can”

If watching the HBO series “Perry Mason” felt like stepping right into 1930s Los Angeles, that was no accident. The design team behind the prestige drama had one mandate: make it as real as possible. And the immersive nature of the production design and complimentary (and period accurate) costumes did just that.

“The period of 1933 Los Angeles was just such a great opportunity for production design and to show off this world,” producer designer Keith P. Cunnigham said in TheWrap’s latest installment of How I Did It, presented by HBO. “I love research, so that was easy,” costume designer Catherine Adair said of her experience on the second season of the show.
