Description

This course will look at different aspects of textile printing, and how it can be designed to enrich and enhance costumes for film.

Print can have many different uses as part of the costume design process. It can be a recreation of an 18th C print, a particular width of stripe, or used to add a texture, a colour gradation, or motif.

Participants will learn how to create a print and the different ways to put it to use. How to use colour from mixing the inks to dyeing the ground fabric. Not just a print, but how to put it to the best effect.

About the Tutor:

Jane Clive originally studied Fashion and Textiles. With a keen interest in theatre and acting, she realised that her love of fabric and design would be more suited to the world of the performing arts than that of high street fashion. After leaving college she worked as a freelance costume maker, buyer and supervisor at prestigious venues such as English National Opera and the Chichester Festival Theatre. But it was in the costume painting department at the Royal Opera house that she developed a passion for the transformation of costumes through the use of ageing processes, nuance of colour, texture and print. Jane set up her own costume painting studio in London, working on many stage productions such as ‘Cats’ and ‘Phantom of the Opera’, and films including ‘ The French Lieutenant’s Woman ‘ and Kenneth Branagh’s ‘Henry V ‘.

It was Jane’s collaboration with Oscar-winning costume designers James Acheson and Colleen Atwood that led to her working almost exclusively in film where she created costume and textile effects for a diverse range of productions such as ‘Frankenstein’ , ‘Little Buddha’, ‘Man in the Iron Mask’ and ‘Sleepy Hollow’. Responding to specific briefs, she invented printing techniques to imitate lavish embroidery, reptilian surfaces or reduce fabric to a threadbare state. Following her election to the Costume Designers’ Guild of America in 2001, she worked in Hollywood on Tim Burton’s ‘Planet of the Apes’.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
