Costume construction requires the making of garments suited to the modern body, while achieving the correct shape and silhouette for a given era and design. The garments have to be appropriate for the character to enable the performer to use costume to enhance their performance.
You will need to be sensitive to the stylistic intentions of the designer and director, and be able to research and understand the time, place and narrative of the production through analysis of scripts and creative concepts. These productions do not focus solely on historical garments and include a diverse range of projects.

About the course:
CB*MA was founded in 2006 by Academy Award award-winning hair and make-up designer, Christine Blundell, to share the experience and knowledge she has accumulated in over two decades working on film, TV and theatre productions.
Christine was inspired to create the school because she felt that in the training being provided in the UK, there was a lack of key skills. Therefore, she has designed her courses to ensure that every student graduating from CB*MA is at an Industry recognised level for those beginning their career.
Her extensive knowledge of the industry has enabled her to hand-pick your team of excellent tutors, all of whom continue to work regularly in the business and keep abreast of new techniques and skills, through constant collaboration with fellow film and TV make-up professionals.
We promise you not just a superb technical grounding but also an insight into the industry, based on the experiences of those who have felt the pressures of real deadlines and developed the tricks for managing the day-to-day realities of applying make-up and styling hair backstage, or on a bustling, often chaotic film set.
