Andrea Hood
- Costume and Wardrobe Department
- Additional Crew
- Art Department
Andrea started working full time in the film industry in 1984. Her first film was Burke & Wills (1985) an Aussie feature set in the outback of Australia in the 1860's.
She spent her early years learning as many diverse skills as she could, fabric dying,screen printing, distressing costumes, embroidery and knitting.
Over the next couple of years she dressed hundreds of extras in costumes of diverse periods and built up a thorough knowledge of the working film set.
The first really major feature film that Andrea worked on as a key costumer, was The Matrix (1999). She has been a Key Costumer on many big features since then.
She works on smaller Australian Feature films and T.V. series as well. Where the costume crew is small, Andrea can use her art finishing and other skills, having a more hands on approach.
Andrea is developing her own breakdown product, as she feels most of the products available on the market are too difficult to use on set. She has been making this product, with her own formula, for years but now is going to start marketing it. The feedback from the people who used it on _Banished (2014)_ and _Mad MAx Fury Road_ was very positive.
