About me
Postgraduate Diploma in Theatre Costume at RADA, specialising in costume making and wardrobe supervision. Graduate of the BA (Hons) degree in Entertainment Design Crafts at Cleveland College of Art and Design, specialising in the costume and prop-making fields. Currently working to establish myself as a specialist in costume design and realisation for the stage and screen.I always have a positive attitude towards the work I undertake and believe myself to be very hardworking, a fast learner and am always keen to develop my practical and technical abilities. To do this, I will always extend a body of work beyond the basic requirements to really ensure that I have explored as many avenues as possible with relevance to the work I am undertaking. I also complete small individual design and realisation tasks in my own time, particularly needlework projects, to further expand my practical ability. Whilst studying for my degree, I have been able to take the time to really define the skills necessary for me to achieve my ambitions, particularly with reference to costume construction. I am able to thoroughly research a topic and develop a range of designs and experimental sampling which really takes an individual approach towards meeting a brief, although I am able to negotiate and develop my work through discussion if necessary. I have a good knowledge of period costume and fashion history, the origins of art movements and their effect on all aspects of the decorative arts. As I find these aspects particularly interesting, I am constantly building my independent knowledge through reading and visiting relevant exhibitions and museums.
In terms of practical ability, I am fully capable of drafting and adapting my own patterns as well as modelling on the stand to realise my designs. I am experienced in the use of domestic and industrial sewing machines and overlockers and can undertake independent fittings throughout construction. Due to the requirements of my degree course, I am also used to thoroughly documenting and recording via photographs the work I produce, which enables me to keep track of successful projects and the mistakes I make, in order that I may work on improving them in the future. As a model maker, I have a good range of sculptural skills and am constantly investigating and testing new materials through practical research. I work diligently both as part of a team and individually, as demonstrated by my contributions towards live projects undertaken during my years at college and during various work placements in the industry. I am an independent worker, capable of using my initiative, taking responsibility for myself and am always willing to attempt new and unusual techniques and processes to meet a brief. I have a determination to succeed which drives my dedication to work and methodical approach.
As a person, I believe myself to be honest and approachable and always open to discussions about my work. I respond well to constructive criticism and am keen to learn from those more experienced than myself.
Additional skills:
I work on a voluntary basis as a heritage tour guide at Godinton House, a Kentish stately home and have recently been nominated for the Pride of Ashford Tourism award. I am also trained in classical guitar and have a background in music and performance myself.
