MA Performance Design Student


Biography

Yifan completed four projects in her final year of study which focused on different directions, stage set, costume and concept.

During the year she collaborated with people from different departments to work on two plays, taking on challenges that she had never encountered before, such as transforming a painting book which she had drawn years ago, into a dance opera.

After a series of training sessions, Yifan hopes to continue working for the stage or screen in the future.

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!
