NATALIE BONANNO

Natalie Bonanno is an award-winning Production Designer based in Brooklyn, New York & Chicago, Illinois. Raised in Charlotte, North Carolina by Mexican & Uruguayan parents, Natalie often turned to films and visual art to feel more connected to her cultural roots. This brought her to Columbia College Chicago where she pursued a Bachelor of Arts in Filmmaking, with a concentration in Production Design. Natalie’s Production Design work primarily evokes a nostalgic aesthetic through her use of muted, neutral colors and bucolic design elements. When Natalie isn’t working on music video or narrative projects, she loves watching documentaries and riding her bike. 

Natalie’s design work has been screened at national and international film festivals including SXSW, Tribeca Film Festival, The Webby Awards, The CLIO Awards, Chicago International Film Festival, The National Film Festival for Talented Youth, Festival CineEuropa Puerto Rico, SCAD Savannah Film Festival, Chicago Latino Film Festival, and many more.
