Art Department Assistant and Runner. Graduated from University of the Arts London in 2018 with a First Class Honours degree in Film and Television Production and a minor in Theatre Design from Wimbledon College of Art.

Currently seeking opportunities to work as a trainee in the film sector. I am very keen to learn about all aspects of the art department and ready to take on any challenge I encounter. I aspire to work my way up the ranks and enjoy the process along the way. After some caring responsibilities at home in Fermanagh I am now living back up in Belfast seeking work opportunities to learn and grow. Aware of what is required, I have started a part time course in the evenings with Belfast Met in AutoCAD to top up my experience. I am also doing a workshop in sculpting for a few months. Although finding work may be difficult on this isle, I am doing all in my power to upskill and join as many film clubs and societies.

Worked on a temporary contract for a short part of 2019 with Game of Thrones on the Legacy Project as an art department assistant and on the Prequel Pilot as a sculpting trainee. Have also worked voluntary in the industry in companies such as ITV, Ealing Studios, Pinewood, RIBA and The National Theatre. A very motivated, committed artist with a keen eye for detail and full of enthusiasm. Can pick up new skills very quickly and thrives in a fast paced working environment with an ability to problem solve well. Looking for opportunities and work within the film sector.

Skills; general art department work of set building, wood/ metal work, set and costume design, 1:25 and 1:50 scale model making, technical drawing, prop buying/ making, set dressing, costume, lights, sound, AD, camera work and admin runner work.
