Highlights
-
Borrowed Time, Feature Film - Set Dresser
Film London/Parkville pictures
June-2013
Borrowed time was a film produced by film London and the BBC as part of the microwave scheme, I had had many varied duties and responsibilities due to the small production team. I worked very closely with the art director making props in pre production, sourcing props, discussing ideas and developing them from the script and dressing the sets. I was also prop master while on set so was responsible for ensuring the actors had their props and checking continuity. I gained a lot of experience and had the chance to make unusual props such as taxidermy squirrels, miniature costumes, curtains and hats.
