"Casanova" 4 Pts for BBC set in Venice, Paris, London and Naples shot in Manchester, Venice and Dubrovnik. It required 5 looks, one for the A story, and 4 different looks for the B stories, Royal Courts of each country. I was asked to break the mould of how period was done and have fun with it and so I did! The producers visited the set to say thank you. This predated the Kirsten Dunst "Marie Antoinnette" by a year.

"Funny Cow" Feature Film set in the Sheffield area over 4 decades, 1950's-1980's. The story is loosely based on the life of Marti Caine, a woman who becomes a successful stand up comic in the challenging environment of working mens clubs of the 1970's. CLICK HERE TO SEE THE HD TRAILER

A richly textured period/present day ghost/mystery tale requiring all the family be redheads. The picture also required adult and child doubles/fire stunts to be redheads which called for wigs, wefts and colourwork which included me flying to New York to fit Vanessa Redgrave for a wig and commissioning it in a colour scripted as 'unknown in nature'.

Single card credit. Probably the best experience of my career. CLICK HERE TO SEE THE TRAILER
