WILLIAM OSBORNE
Prop Maker

 ABOUT ME 

Welcome!

 

My creative journey began during the unprecedented times of the COVID-19 pandemic. Fuelled by a lifelong passion for the process behind Film and TV, I embarked on a transformative path that has reshaped my career.

​

In the midst of lockdown, I found solace and inspiration in prop making. Inspired by countless great storytellers, I seized the opportunity to pivot my career and wholeheartedly pursue my creative dream.

​

From self funding projects during the pandemic to building a diverse portfolio. This experience allowed me to delve deeper into the nuances of the industry, and I am proud to have gained valuable experience working on High-End Television (HETV) productions in Wales.

​

With experience working within the Fabrication, Creature FX, and Costume Props departments, I have learnt a variety of transferable skills. The fast-paced and dynamic environment developed not only technical skills but also a keen understanding of the collaborative nature of the industry.

​

Eager to perfect my craft and embrace new challenges, I am currently expanding my experience as a freelancer in Cardiff. My focus lies in furthering my understanding of materials and techniques, constantly seeking to refine and broaden my skill set. I aspire to take my passion beyond the borders of South Wales, envisioning a global journey that involves collaborating with diverse talents in a variety of productions and workshops.
