About
Pre-Film and TV
I initially studied mechanical engineering degree and industrial design.
Shortly after graduating, I unexpectedly found a job as a Supporting Artist on a BBC documentary about the Tudors.
​
Before that, I hadn’t had anything to do with the industry whatsoever.
I really enjoyed the experience, and it made me realise that I would like to work in the film and TV industry in some capacity.
However, I knew absolutely nothing about the film and TV industry.
As you would imagine, this is not the sort of thing they teach you about in a mechanical engineering degree.
As a result, I was effectively starting from ground-zero.
Entering the Industry
In the following years, I continued to work as an SA.
I also did a lot of research about the industry, watched what happened when I was on set, asked lots of questions, completed several courses, and spoke to as many people as I could.​
It often felt like trying to build a complex LEGO model without any instructions. (Sometimes I felt like I didn’t even know what the model was supposed to look like!)
But it was also exciting to be discovering an industry as interesting, challenging, and varied as this one.
Looking back, I refer to those years as my quarter-life crisis – an experience that I know a lot of people go through.
Ultimately, I realised I would like to design and create props and sets.
One thing led to another, and I ended up doing just that.​
Current Work
To date, I have worked in the Art Department on productions such as:
-
Bridgerton
-
The Winter King
-
The Gallows Pole
-
The Power
-
The Souvenir Pt. 2
-
Fast and Furious 9
I have also worked as a Supporting Artist and SPACT on productions such as Vanity Fair, World on Fire, Vikings: Blood and Conquest, Father Brown, and The Personal History of David Copperfield.
Furthermore, I have sourced SPACTs and Supporting Artists for Father Brown, and comedian Sam Campbell’s UK tour.
