Jasmine Barron

BA (Hons) Costume Student


Biography

During her BA Top-Up year, Jasmine is studying dress symbolism in late 18th Century France, focusing on tailoring and recreative practices. Alongside historical studies, she is also interested working on-set in film and television, having previously completed work experience on ‘Worzel Gummidge’ (Leopard Pictures, BBC1) and ‘Peaky Blinders’ (Tiger Aspect, BBC1). Credits during training include: ‘The Book Club’ as standby/supervisor; ‘Far From the Madding Crowd’ (Redgrave Theatre) and ‘Kyoto’ (Wardrobe Theatre) as costume maker; and ‘Troilus and Cressida’ (Redgrave Theatre) as costume supervisor.

It was always stressed that the contacts you make during your training are incredibly important, and your classmates are likely to end up being on set alongside you in the future. After working with a director of photography on one of the School’s short films, I was invited to work on a project with him outside of Bristol - proving that the professionals we meet via the School, may one day give us a call to action!
