  Professional Recommendations

  

  Charlotte Annice Spruch Makeup Artist (SFX)

  I'm always happy to work on a production where Clare is involved. She's organised and friendly with her crew and makes sure everyone's morale is high to get the job done.

  

  Agnieszka Kukulka Makeup Artist (SFX)

  It is absolute pleasure to work with Clare. Incredibly professional and friendly. I also found her helpful and supportive on many occasions. Great communication with cast and crew.

  

  Scott Toms Production Manager

  I have worked with Clare before and she is a very personable, hard working professional. She trained me as an AD and took time to get me through the duties required and still managed to keep everyone on set happy. All round good lady

  

  Fabio Guglielmelli Cinematographer

  Clare Cahill is one of the most sensitive and competent 1st AD I have worked with. Always able to handle the stress of the role with incredible calm without creating any tension, leading the crew to complete successfully the project within the deadlines.

  

  Tara Mascara Make-up Artist

  I worked with Clare who was 1st AD on a low budget feature film last Year. She was really calm under pressure, friendly,motivated and very efficient at her job. I hope to work with her again in the future.

  

  Greg Brand Camera Operator

  It was a fantastic experience working with Clare. She was an outstanding AD, always keeping the crew on schedule, whilst making sure we were all well looked after, allowing us to keep our minds on the task at hand.Clare has a vast amount of experience on set, and yet always has time for any questions and queries... even amidst a frantic shooting schedule.
