Graduation!
Saskeya's time with Screen Manchester was an intensive deep-dive into the professional film and TV industry. It taught me how the Wardrobe Department integrates with all the different departments.
HETV Standards: Trained in professional set etiquette and the fast-paced workflow of high-end television.
Continuity Management: Responsible for ensuring costumes looked identical across multiple takes and filming days.
Departmental Collaboration: As Director, I learned exactly how a Costume Designer must communicate with the Director of Photography (DoP) regarding colour palettes and lighting.
Problem Solving: Adapted to "on-the-fly" wardrobe needs during a live shoot, maintaining a calm and proactive presence on set.
