About me
I graduated in July 2011 with a 2.1 BA in Technical Effects for Performance from London College of Fashion. My degree included training in sculpture, mouldmaking and casting in fibreglass, resins, silicone, cold foam and plaster of paris, and vacuum forming, as well as costuming skills including pattern drafting and draping, stretch wear construction, special effects body padding, corsetry and leatherwork.After graduation I worked for two months for Rainbow Productions, a company specialising in the fabrication of large scale character and mascot costumes, gaining extensive experience of using Plastazote to produce large and detailed but lightweight structures, and pattern drafting to fit unusual shapes.
My previous experience, before completing my degree, includes costume and armour work for Shrek, The Musical while at Robert Allsop and Associates props studio, and the Royal Shakespeare Company's Dunsinane and The Arabian Nights. I have also worked with smaller companies and enjoy the challenges of producing high quality results on the small budgets this often entails.
