Opposition to the Academy’s plan to award eight Oscars prior to the live telecast continues to grow, with more than 350 new names — including more than a dozen Oscar-winning editors, cinematographers and production designers — added to the petition sent last week to Academy president David Rubin urging a reversal of the plan.
Among the industry professionals signing are Oscar-winning cinematographers John Seale (“The English Patient”), John Toll (“Braveheart”) and Dean Semler (“Dances With Wolves”), and Oscar-winning editors Richard Chew and Paul Hirsch (“Star Wars”), Mikkel Neilsen (“The Sound of Metal”), Pietro Scalia (“JFK”) and Zach Staenberg (“The Matrix”).
Oscar-winning production designers Hannah Beachler (“Black Panther”), Barbara Ling (“Once Upon a Time in Hollywood”), Adam Stockhausen (“Grand Budapest Hotel”) and David and Sandy Wasco (“La La Land”) also signed on.
Cinematography will be presented during the live show, but editing and production design are among the eight awards to be presented during the 4 p.

Why does Olivia Pope wear those immaculate overcoats? How did Hannah Horvath end up in that famous mesh T-shirt during her coke binge? How does Saturday Night Live get an entire episode's worth of outfits ready in a matter of days? We got answers to those questions and more at the Vulture Festival during our panel discussion with some of TV's best costume designers: Jenn Rogien (Girls, Orange Is the New Black), Jenny Gering (The Americans), Tom Broecker (SNL, House of Cards), and Lyn Paolo (Scandal, Shameless). Among the weird facts we learned: Apparently, costume designers are often tasked with breaking the news to an actor that he or she will have to go naked! Stressful! Check out the whole discussion below.

One of the best parts of watching FX’s rollicking spy drama The Americans is getting to see just what Matthew Rhys and Keri Russell wear next — on their heads, that is.
Peg Schierholz, who leads the show’s hair department, has plenty to say about the fun that goes into creating the gorgeous 1980s styles that adorn Phillip, Elizabeth, and the rest of their Russian-American spy friends. And in fact, that’s why their hair is so big: it’s full of secrets.
Read on for eight little factoids we learned from Schierholz in anticipation of Wednesday night’s episode,...

When you think 1981, hold the big hair, neon and parachute pants. Please hold the parachute pants, preferably in a locked, dark closet. 1981, the setting of the FX sleeper-spy drama "The Americans," reflects the fashion dictates of the 1970s, but the classier aspects. And yes, those did exist.
"1981 is a transitional time," Jenny Gering, the show's costume designer, tells Zap2it. "Most people do wear clothes that are between 1 to 5 years old."
In the drama, Elizabeth and Philip (Keri Russell, Matthew Rhys) are Kgb spies posing as a husband and wife running a travel agency.
"The thing to take into account is where they are living," Gering says. "The East Village in '81 is very different from suburban Virginia in '81."
Gering says Elizabeth has "a certain classic element to her. She is not particularly trendy. However, she is very aware of her beauty. She takes pride in her appearance. Her look is fitted.
