From LAFS to Hollywood: How Joshua Bramer Became the Prop Master Behind Everything Everywhere All at Once, Euphoria, Don’t Worry Darling, and More

Long before he became an in-demand Hollywood property master working on acclaimed productions like Everything Everywhere All at Once, Euphoria, Freakier Friday, and Blonde, he was a kid in Michigan, completely fascinated by movies like Hook and Jurassic Park, watching behind-the-scenes bonus content behind his favorite films, which he hoped would reveal how movie worlds were created. Today, Joshua Bramer helps create those worlds himself—designing and sourcing the props that bring characters, stories, and entire universes to life onscreen.
