“Darryl is a valued Associate Lecturer here at the London College of Fashion on the B.A. 3D Effects for Performance and Fashion course. The course allows students to create a wide range of outcomes from across the spectrum of performance. Darryl’s years of industry experience has been a great asset to the students and has helped drive some really interesting projects over the past six years. He inspires students to produce their best of work through guidance and his extensive knowledge of puppetry, sculpting, moulding and fabrication from his own freelance practice in theatre, film and television.

Darryl has also introduced students to other industry specialists and helps them find a way into the world of work and is always willing to give guidance and advice.

During the time I have been working with Darryl, the course has had amazing Nation Student Survey results, gaining 100% satisfied students.”
