Nina de Vet
Education:
In 2018 I started my studies in Theatre Design at the MBO Theatre School in Rotterdam. There I took lessons from Saskia Meulendijk (Portfolio & design), Caja Labordus (Make-up) and Dorine van IJsseldijk (Costume).
During my school years I also came into contact with many talented and passionate peers, who will certainly ensure good cooperation where necessary. Should multiple disciplines be needed to complete a job.
But there is always room for improvement, which is why I see every assignment and challenge as an opportunity to grow and improve my techniques.
Internships:
Before graduating, I gained work experience at theatre companies including 'Jeugdtheater Hofplein' with director Peer van de Berg, 'WORM' under the direction of Jari Winsen & 'Theater Rotterdam' (formerly 'RO Theater') where I helped create the costumes for 'Rumpelstiltskin & the Blind Princess', the annual family performance.
In my final year I mainly did an internship and worked there for the Blue Circle production 'The Masked Singer' (RTL4). With all that knowledge together I started my own studio.
Motto:
What I strongly believe in is that theatre and art should be available to everyone. And it can completely transport you to another world. Through puppets and costumes I try to contribute to something that can be that great experience for someone.
Because I strongly believe that everyone should be able to enjoy art, I am always open to collaborations with organizations or associations that may not have much money. To then put a low-budget job there. So if you are unsure whether a professional studio fits your budget, do not hesitate to email me! Then I will gladly think along with you about the possibilities!
Method:
By sending an email with your idea or goal, you can request a quote. We will get in touch and we can sit down together to discuss/arrange everything. After which I will propose one or more non-binding designs where necessary.
After all parties have agreed, I will get to work to bring your vision to life. Depending on the assignment, the time can vary from a few weeks to a few months. We will have regular contact and you will be kept informed of all major advances and steps. This is how we arrive at a product that everyone can be proud of and satisfied with.
