Trainee Set Dresser/Prop Maker

From August 2024 - October 2024 I was a Trainee Set Dresser/Prop Maker on Shaun the Sheep Series 7 with Aardman Animations. In this time I worked on individual sets, dressing and finalising them for shoot. Alongside this I also created handmade props across all episodes. Some of my work can be seen below.
