Set and costume design
Set and costume designer Bob Crawley describes his route into this job and explains what first caught his interest in terms of design and talks about the skills and qualities required in the job. He cites curiosity as perhaps more important than technical skills, as a stage designer needs a keen interest in researching all kinds of contexts and historical eras. There are glimpses of the set of 'Alice's Adventures In Wonderland' in construction, including the Cheshire Cat, a three dimensional version of the original illustration.
