During my time studying BA (Hons) Costume at AUB, I have developed my costume-making skills across a range of productions.
For the internal production of Jekyll and Hyde, created in collaboration with the BA (Hons) Acting and Makeup, Hair and Prosthetics courses, I made a Victorian-meets-contemporary costume for the principal female character. I also contributed to external productions, including La Traviata with Hurn Court Opera, where I made a 1930s three-piece suit for the principal male, and Dick Whittington at The Oxford Playhouse for which I constructed the Rat King's walk-down costume. I have further strengthened my historical costume skills through the creation of a 17th century women's costume for a project based on Girl with a Pearl Earring by Tracy Chevalier.
Alongside my course projects, I have gained experience in film. I was a Costume Assistant on What Remains on Calico Hill, a graduate film produced this year, and developed my costume supervision skills on the student short film Ludwig and Lucian. In addition, I worked as a Costume Store Assistant, supporting the organisation of stock and undertaking small making projects for both the on- and off-campus costume stores. While in my final year at AUB, I also completed a placement with Disney, which progressed into a Costume Trainee position.
Plans after degree
After graduation, I hope to pursue a career in costume for the film and television industry.
