Adrian Ashmore
Technical Team Lead
Creative Arts & Technology
Currently I am Technical Team Leader for Creative Arts & Technology, leading a team of gifted technicians delivering the highest quality technical workshops across the NSA&D. I studied 3D at North East Wales Institute HE and Wolverhampton Polytechnic and gained my Masters degree in Digital Communications at NTU and have worked in the School of Art & Design for over 28 years. Right now my main passions are costume design and making Ai enhanced image, music and video. I am serial crafter and maker and turn my hand to whatever traditional or tech tool help me achieve my vision, whether that is 3D printing, laser etching , digital photography or AI, it’s all a means to an end, I love making and creating!
My work demonstrates my passion for story telling and technology and uses my original lyrics, AI generative music , image and video software to create narratives drawing from personal life events. I believe everyone has a story to tell, these are some of mine
