About

Prop Maker for Film & TV

Hands-on prop maker with practical experience across Film & TV workshops, art departments, set decoration, practical effects and on-set production.

I build practical props, character sculpts and prosthetic appliances for camera — from clay sculpting, moulding and casting through to 3D printing, laser cutting, scenic finishing and basic electronics.

A 10+ year background in IT gives me a technical problem-solving habit that carries straight into the workshop: I like builds that have to work as well as look right, whether that means an internal armature, a wiring loom or a servo-driven mechanism.

Trained at Odyssey Studios through WWETB in prop making for stunts and set decoration, prosthetics and makeup, and creative sculpting for film and TV. Based in Wexford, Ireland, and available to travel for productions.
