Richard la Motte

Richard La Motte loves stories. Stories about history, about people, about mysterious and exotic places, about love, danger, and adventure. Stories about behavior, about motivation, about self-realization and self-deception—in other words, stories about us: humans. This passion is a result of Richard joining the Marine Corp just out of high school. A passion born out of working in the motion picture industry as a costume designer (The Mask of Zorro, The Last of the Mohicans, Rambo III), art director, technical advisor, and director – traveling around the world, setting up departments in foreign countries, working with major Hollywood actors and actresses. Storyteller. Worked in off-beaten places in six continents. History lover. Reader and researcher. Collector. Artist. Designer. Music lover. Husband. Father. Observer of people. Full of life’s experiences, Richard LaMotte brings his unique talents, keen eye, and sense of humor to his writing—both fiction and non-fiction. Retired now from the motion picture industry, Richard is devoting his time to his love of stories—writing adventures for you.

Toby M. Bronson, Set Costumer, Pirates of the Caribbean, The Aviator, Deadwood – May 10, 2016:

Richard has structured his book from an insider’s point of view – a rare glimpse of what it takes, step by step, to achieving your goals in the costume industry. A road map to success from a true master of the craft.
Edward Marks, President, Western Costume Company – May 10, 2016:

The information in this book is both true and valuable, and anyone who reads it has access to years of the kind of mentorship that has largely vanished from our industry.
John Bloomfield, Costume Designer, The Mummy, Waterworld, The Scorpion King – May 10, 2016:

Richard loves his craft and it shows in every line. He has given us a comprehensive, step-by-step analysis of the Costume Designer’s work. Of great value to both the interested amateur and the budding professional.
