About me
I studied Theatre Design at Nottingham Trent University graduated in 2012. During my time as university I did as much work with professional companies as I could, working for Rocket Scenery on 'Midnight Tango', Blind Summit working with puppets. Bamboozle disabled childrens theatre, I have worked in a lot of areas, for more information I am able to send my CV and portfolio. I am friendly and hard working. Since University I have done freelance working with Cbeebies in Salford as a prop maker, Splinter as a scenic painter etc. In the past couple of years I have gained great contacts and been able to meet fantastic people to work with on some amazing projects. For more information please feel free to ask.Additional skills:
I have worked in many different areas and have acquired many skills, I am a good set builder but would love to be fully trained up what I know I have self taught, I can read and understand AutoCAD and have basic drawing skills in it. I am a great user of Adobe Photoshop, am currently teaching myself Illustrator. I love prop making and puppets, I am more a carpenter than metal worker. I also have a certificate in Basic Life support. I love learning new skills and like a challenge.
