Elizabeth Callaghan

About

I studied Theatre and Performance Technology and Design at LIPA and graduated in 2019. Throughout my degree I developed many skills from Lighting, Costume design and construction, Puppetry, set construction, and scenography, to Production Management, CAD, and flys operations; however, I specialised in Stage Management & Prop Making and Live Sound Technology. I have since created a career in Television and Media, which I began in November 2018 as standby props. Since then I have been freelancing in Television as Dressing Props or Standby props, and occasionally in Events as crew, site control, or admin.
