Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to look at my Hiive profile :)

I am a trainee hair and makeup artist based in Manchester and looking for work experience and/or trainee positions in the northwest, UK & abroad.

I am an enthusiastic and hardworking indiviual with a true passion for make up atistry and inspired by the TV & film industry as a whole, my ultimate dream being to be a part of a team able to create the magical images we see on our screens everyday.

I have recently graduated from the award winning School of Makeup in Manchester in Media Makeup for theatre, TV & film including SFX and also also period hairstyling & wig work.

Since graduating I have gained invaluable work experience with the RNCM (Royal Northen College of Music) in the hair and makeup department for their opera production of 'Cendrillion' (Cinderella) The multi award winning tour of 'Miss Saigon' during its recent Manchester run and also at the Lowry Theatre on 'Singing in the Rain' aswell working for 'Selladoor Worldwide' on various of their theatre productions/promo shoots including 'The Wizard of Oz' and 'Madagascar The Musical'.

All of experiences I have had so far in theatre have been invaluable as they have given me a brilliant insight into the fast paced theatre life and have also taught me a lot about working under strict time constraints and under pressure.
Although I have not yet had a wealth of experience in TV to date, the small amount I have had has shown me that I would be a valuable asset to a makeup team on a television production.

I have a UK passport, full UK driving licence and my own transport and I am fully willing and happy to travel wherever work may take me.

Many thanks,

Lucy x
