About me

Alex trained at the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts. During his time there he designed the visuals for many shows including Esther - Queen of Egypt, Freckleface Strawberry, American Woman, The End and two external shows at the Unity Theatre, Hansel and Gretel and Pied Piper contributing elements such as moving backdrops, animated elements, projected shadow puppets and even a talking tree. Alex also worked on many external projects including assisting in the filming and editing for Momentous which was created by Illuminos as part of Leeds Light Night in 2013, and worked as both a technical assistant on the Food for Real Film Festival, as well as creatively contributing to two films. Alex is now participating in the Emerging Artists Programme as a film maker, and is contributing both in the form of visual design and in documentation of the projects. Alex is happy to contribute to any project with a digital element, but he also enjoys working in more traditional design as he has many skills such as sewing, painting and construction. Alex also has a background in technical theatre.
