BA (Hons) Design for Costume and Performance

Ombline Durand

I’m an aspiring costume designer wanting to specialise in film and TV. Throughout my time at AUB, I’ve worked on various projects both live and theoretical with a focus on film and painting.

I have a lot of interest in the historical aspect of design as well as the fantasy genre. I like the dreams and whimsy of fairytales and the darkness and depth of history

I designed costume for a graduate film, and it really cemented how much film is something I wish to take further in my career. Coming up with ways to make each character visibly unique and different through costume was really what I discovered I loved, and this project allowed me to realise that.

I also developed my painting through scenic art for theatre sets but also on a canvas and a corset. I wanted to produce a full canvas because it really helps plunge into the world I am trying to describe and embellish through costume, and a corset to combine design and hand-painted art.

Plans after degree

After graduating, I intend to work and gain as much experience in the film and TV industry as a daily, trainee or design assistant to better develop my skills and understanding.
