Introduction to the Costume Department

CARDIFF | Thu 26th February - Fri 27th February

Ever wondered who’s responsible for what actors wear on screen - and how it all comes together behind the scenes?

You’ll learn about the creative processes that bring characters to life, the different roles within the department, some key practical skills to have up your sleeve, and how costume teams collaborate with directors, designers, and cast.

Taught by Lindsay Bonaccorsi (Costume Designer for BBC, Channel 4, Boom Cymru, S4C, Mammoth Screen)
