David Curtis-Ring

Brilliant presentation from David Curtis-Ring today who came to visit level 5s.

Some really fascinating & interesting work, and a lot of use of puppetry within it.

Some notes I took from this session:

Fashion/Costume/Set-designer:
- Foundation course at BCU, Bournville
- Studied Textiles at Goldsmiths
- Assisted Set Designers...developed from there...


- Recently worked with designer Craig Green in his Autumn/Winter 2013 collection to create wooden headpieces for the models to wear with his collection of clothing - there was a lot of press coverage at the time around these headpieces!
- Worked on music video (puppetry) - 'Bloodface' by Lisa Li-Lund
- Worked with puppeteer Billie Achilleos
- Worked with Jenna Foxton on music video for Sinead O'Connor
- Made 'Bling' peacock feathers for online advert for Converse

Be practical - get making & take ideas from there

"Filming in the dark really transforms the use of space"

Kepp a collection of images you like/inspire you as a reference - always a good starting point to look at when stuck on a new project.
