Thomas Gould

BA Production Arts


Biography

Born and bred Bristolian, Tom is an interdisciplinary scenic construction and prop builder. He is in his third year of BA Production Arts (Stage & Screen) at Bristol Old Vic Theatre School.

For his final year, Tom has specialised in construction management. His duties included overseeing the construction department, creating working drawings in CAD, and costing for multiple student productions.

Tom has also acted as Prop Supervisor in this third year, a role which has an emphasis on the finish and scenic elements of productions. Tom has industry experience working as an Assistant Carpenter on film and TV productions, and as a flyperson at Bristol Old Vic.

One of my favourite parts about BOVTS is that it feels ‘homegrown’. From the set to the costume, lighting, acting and sound, every single aspect of a theatre production or film is down to the students. The location of Clifton is so serene and the School being so small everyone knows each other and it feels so personal and special. Violet Morris, BA Professional Acting Student
