Episode Details

Cat Miller designed the props that make Severance feel like a nightmare you can't quite name — including the deliberately wrong technology that nobody in the show is allowed to explain.

Cat Miller is a seasoned property master whose credits include Severance, Russian Doll, The Affair, Uncut Gems, and Confess Fletch. With a background in professional dance and a deep-rooted family history in the film industry, her props don't merely adorn the background — they shape the world they inhabit.

• How vending tokens and deliberately wrong technology create a feeling of control and claustrophobia without a single line of dialogue
• Why a background in professional dance informs a meticulous approach to physical objects on screen
• The storytelling power of a single carefully chosen prop — and how easily it can be lost in a bad edit
• What the challenges of prop design in comedy reveal about how differently tone works across genres
• The invisible integrity required to build a believable world that an audience never consciously analyses
