My interests lie in working on period film costumes is
my ultimate aim, specialising in handwork such as beading, hand finishing
and embroidery.
Skills I have acquired during training at TAFE include
Hand finishing, tailoring, time management and patience.
Work experience includes:
-
Opera Australia on the 1998 production of 'Beatrice and
Benedict' working on the ladies chorus costumes
-
The wardrobe department of the musical 'Showboat'
during its run in Sydney at Star City in 1998.
-
Anthony Philips Costumes making the costumes for the principals
of Baz Lurhmann's latest production 'Moulin Rouge' .
I plan to obtain an ongoing connection with a costume production
company - preferably for film. I also anticipate working overseas
at some point in time and hope to continuously gain skills from both workplaces
and through further education.
