Palmer found Diana's magic through her collaboration with movement coach Sarah Perry. "I call her my magic coach," quips Palmer. "Together, we came up with how the spells are elemental and how we use the movements and the choreography to depict the different knots and it's very, very particular. I learned a series of knots. It's become a dance. I love having someone to bounce ideas off of, and together, we created how the magic would translate and how it manifests itself."
