Ros Chase (Theatre Technology)

Biography

What's been your highlight during your time at Guildhall?

My highlight so far has been Lighting Designing for Summer Projects which enabled me to work closely with a series of talented student and professional video designers and artists on live performances and video shoots. These projects included ‘Refractions’ moving screens and a shoot for ‘Waswasa’ by Soul City Arts. The exposure to collaboration with professionals and new, advanced technologies pushed my designs and practice as a Lighting Designer.

What's something you've learned that you feel will help you when you graduate?

Working on productions at Guildhall has taught me a lot about the importance of good communication and inter-personal skills. I believe that empathy for and understanding of other departments is essential to be a good theatre practitioner.

What are you most interested in working in after you graduate?

I’m interested in working with new writing and thrive off being part of research & development processes. I’m passionate about theatre which represents people from typically under-represented backgrounds, especially feminist and LGBTQ+ pieces. I also find myself drawn to theatre with music and immersivity to amplify audience experience.
