FASHION
FASHION EVENTS: Full production from pre-development and design stages to event management. I work with both 2D and 3D software to create floorplans and design elements where needed; and I focus on high-end projects as well as small-budget projects, concentrating on local businesses and sustainability. I lead on all aspects including:
-
Location sourcing, design and development of the event, spaces, and technical aspects
-
Contractor relations/ Overseeing operations/liaising with event contractors (AV, Suppliers, Rigging, Furniture/Decor, H&S, Food & Beverage)
-
Budget responsibility
-
Floorplans (Autocad)
-
Supervision and coordination of teams and build days
-
Maintaining the visual and moral integrity of the event
-
Coordinating Technical and Production aspects
-
Planning and scheduling catwalks, speaker sessions, etc.
WRITING: From articles and essays to trend reports and catwalk live reporting. You can find some of my writing here.
ART DIRECTION & PHOTO SHOOTS: Much like my work in fashion events, I can take a project right from the pre-development phases right through to fruition.
CONSULTANCY: I take on a variety of freelance consultancy roles, sometimes one-off to support individuals or companies with various elements of their work and support any areas which need a little TLC.
FILM
With my specialism set firmly within production, I am also a screenwriter and script editor and often work within the two spaces. I work largely with short films, documentaries and fashion films; and aside from production and writing, I often support projects through editing, consultancy, film editing (short) and critical writing/articles.
My first film made it into the SIFA Festival and my clients have included projects within BAFTA, the BFI and other international film awards and festivals, and for over four years, I have specialised in exhibition films and documentaries for two local museums based across London.
THEATRE
Within production, I collaboratively shape and safeguard the artistic vision of plays. This includes conducting and sharing research in:
-
The factual accuracy of the characters portrayed
-
Cultural accuracy of characters portrayed (e.g. dialect, popular culture)
-
World of the play
-
Themes present in the writing
-
Written/illustrated guidance so that this research can be reflected in the plays: -
Costume design
-
Dramaturgical structure
Production and writing work includes: Park Theatre London, Unnamed Friend Productions.
CLASSICAL MUSIC
Working with press and research departments to support clients both nationally and internationally. This work has also included:
-
Monitoring and clipping press
-
Transcriptions (radio, TV and interviews)
-
Client coverage reports as necessary
-
Creating schedules for the internal team and journalists, reporters and critics for concerts and festivals (including travel and accommodation)
-
Making wrap-reports for clients
