Deanne Rohde began her career in film as a Set Decorator. Her background in photography helped prepare her for working in motion pictures by giving her a great understanding of light and a keen eye for detail.
In a relatively short time as a Production Designer, Deanne has amassed an eclectic body of work. Working with internationally acclaimed director Guy Maddin on the Emmy Award-winning gothic masterpiece Dracula: Pages from a Virgin’s Diary, Rohde was nominated for a Gemini Award, and took home Manitoba’s Blizzard Award for Best Art Direction.
The gritty urban decay of Seven Times Lucky, directed by Gary Yates and starring Kevin Pollack, garnered Rohde a Genie nomination for Best Achievement in Art Direction/Production Design. The film premiered at Sundance in 2006, played festivals around the world, and amassed several nominations and awards.
Other feature film credits include Niagara Motel, and Blue State, which premiered at the 2007 Tribeca film festival.
