Benjamyn Bird

I graduated from Arts University Bournemouth in 2020 with a Master’s in film production, specialising in Production Design. I then worked steadily as Art Department Assistant for ITV’s Grantchester, BBC’s Killing Eve and Netflix drama Obsession. Here I undertook a lot of draughting for small construction elements on location; plugs, cover-ups and location enhancements. I was also responsible for managing locations and overseeing construction during install. This is where I found a passion for Art Direction. On Back to Black & All Creatures I started draughting for all construction elements large scale cover-up, plugs and set peace’s. On CC: Emily I was promoted from Assistant Art Director to Art Director, fulfilling my career long goal. I also had the opportunity to design and manage my first set. Since then I’ve had Art Directed four more project, managing crew, budgets, vehicles and schedules.
