Hi! I’m Matt.
During the creative process I pride myself on working closely with professional directors and writers to fully research and fulfil their brief. I have worked in many roles for theatrical productions including: acting, producing, production design, Stage Managing and as a scenic artist. This combined experience enables me to see problems from many different perspectives and I use this to influence the props I make. With each prop I make the aim is for it to be practical, aesthetically and historically correct and will always strive to be hardwearing and easy to use.
· Foam work to create lightweight flexible props and costume items
· Ageing and distressing
· Wood working and carpentry
· Set and production design
· Adaptation and modification of existing items to make them suitable for their new life as a theatre prop.
I’d love to work with you at any stage of the process from set design to set construction and prop making.
