Amelia Alexandra Darcy Paul
Hello, my name is Amelia Paul
I am a 2019 graduate of the Iver Makeup Academy’s 30 week intensive training course.
Although I consider myself to be an all rounder, I have a particular love and interest in SFX, prosthetics and wig styling (specifically period styles).
A key thing to know about me is that I used to be a competitive figure skater for the best part of 12 years, so from a young age I have obtained hard work, discipline and determination in achieving my goals and is a mentality that I have therefore applied in this career. Also as I used to wake up at 3am to go to the ice rink and train, the demanding call times for film and TV have never phased me.
I work very well within a team environment, I watch, listen and apply it into any task at hand. I also am a very kind individual and treat everyone with kindness and respect.
