A polymath from the get-go, Caroline, armed with a degree in graphic design, a folio of punk photographs and three collections of New romantic clothes designs, burst into the fertile creative world of MTV and music videos in the mid 80s.  There was hardly a more boundary breaking adventurous time in film making since the pioneers of the silent era. 

Art directing the best part of 800 music video clips and commercials she learnt everything she needed to know to make the leap to ‘real’ film making; the skills of drafting, construction, elemental special effects, scenic painting, gripology,  the uses and making of mattes and miniatures , the use of lenses with sets, landscaping, script breakdown, storyboarding, sourcing props, set etiquette and heading up a big department – all the tools of a well rounded production designer. 

Feature films were the ultimate goal, and to date CGM has designed 17 features and worked more recently on High end TV as Standby Art director, Snr Art director and Set Dresser.
