Film & Costume
A hardworking team player with a vast range of skills who is willing to try anything.
I'm a young film enthusiast keen to make my way in the Maltese film industry. While my primary focus is the costume department, I'm a hardworking team player with a vast range of skills, so I'm willing to try anything.
Most recently I worked as a Costume Trainee on National Geographic's Surviving Pompeii, where I sewed and maintained costumes, made jewellery, assisted with fittings and alterations, and supported the production wrap.
I also have experience outside the costume department, having worked as a Sound Trainee on Breathe Deep for Cornerstone Films. In the future I'm planning on doing a Bachelor of Arts in Costume Design and Construction in Edinburgh.
