Welcome back to another exciting episode of The DizRadio Show! As spooky season rolls in and our Not-So-Scary Halloween Celebration fast approaches, we are celebrating by highlighting one of the most versatile up-and-coming talents in the entertainment world today.
Whether she’s stealing scenes in front of the lens or crafting unforgettable visuals behind it, AUBREE PAYNE is a name you need to know.
It’s rare to meet a creative who can command a set from every angle, but Aubree Payne is doing just that.
Joining us this week Aubree opens up about her sprawling journey as an actress, art director, set dresser, and graduating film student.
From High-Profile Sets to Indie Horrors
If Aubree’s work looks familiar, that’s because you’ve likely seen her design touch in commercial spots for major brands like AT&T and McDonald’s. Her eye for detail and atmospheric design has also graced independent feature sets, including her work as a set dresser and designer on the film Pillow Armor.
Now, just in time for Halloween, Aubree is stepping directly into the spotlight starring in the film Hansel and Gretel’s Halloween.
A Rising Star to Watch
