About Amela | |
| “…the costumes by Amela Baksic, which drape the characters in flawlessly tasteful fashion, contribute to the sense that design is a pathetic hedge against fate and human nature.” - New York Times Amela Baksic, was awarded the prestigious Design Fellowship from The National Endowment of the Arts. Since then she has worked extensively in Theatre, Film, and Television having designed costumes for a wide range of directors and actors including Al Pacino, Neil LaBute, David Mamet, Estelle Parsons, Dana Delaney, Kyra Sedgewick, Amy Sedaris, and Julie Harris, to name a few. Most recently, she designed costumes for feature films “Trophy Kids” and “Beware the Gonzo”. She also, most notably, she assisted Albert Wolsky on Julie Taymor’s “Across the Universe”, which received 2008 Academy Award Nomination for best costume design. Her most recent episodic TV work includes “Fringe” (Warner Brothers Television/Fox) and “Kings” (NBC), and “Law and Order” (NBC). Highlights of her theatre career are: Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf at the Stratford Festival of Canada; Shakespeare’s R&J in London’s West End and in Japan; productions at off-Broadway theatres that include Playwrights Horizons, Second Stage Theatre, New York Theatre Workshop, Ensemble Studio Theatre, Actors Studio and also significant regional theaters across the country.
