Here’s a little sneak peek into the developing costume designs for or lead characters in the PURE pilot episode, created by our amazing costume designer, Kumie Asai! 

We’ll continue posting about our pre-production journey on social media and at www.journeytotheannex.com. More to come!

Our director, Cate Carson, is working on another bad-ass project with the Alliance of Women Directors, premiering in October at Disney Studios. We can’t wait to share more about it, and will definitely release more info as it develops. 

In the meantime, Cate, and the rest of the core team and department heads of PURE are still plugging away at pre-production for our pilot episode. Locations are locked, costumes are being made, and we are meeting with weapons masters to begin creating the prop weapons for our fight sequence. More to come!

We are so excited to bring on an amazing Executive Producer to the PURE pilot episode - John Titchenal! Thank you so much, John, for coming on board and supporting our project. We look forward to working with you and can’t wait to develop a fantastic episode with your generous help.

John has also produced projects including “Judas Kiss” (also starring our lead actress Julia Morizawa), “The Dark Place,” and “Don’t Be Afraid of the Light.” You can learn more about these other projects by visiting John’s IMDB page.
