Panda Cooper
HAIR & MAKEUP GRADUATE
Like so many others, the pandemic had detrimental effects on my small, events based face and body art business, but using this time productively was essential for my proactive mindset and the most perfect time to enrol on a course
I modelled at Bath Academy of Media Makeup for a previous student there several years ago, and after reading more about the infamous Peter Swords King TV and Film Course, I knew this was the right choice for me. My unwavering desire to create escapism for others, has now been upgraded and my previous skills refined, and what better way to reach the masses than joining the TV and Film industry. I feel so grateful to have completed this course as a mature student which has only aided my motivation, understanding and enthusiasm for all modules of the course.
I'm just as thrilled to start bringing my combined skills to causes, campaigns, projects, productions, shows, commercials, fashion and more. Click below to see more of my work!
