HOW DO WE MOULD THEFUTURE IN OUR HANDSThe world has always been ever-evolving, andnow more than ever, the future lies in ourhands. But how do we mould it for the benefitof the generations that come? We have to start with the basics: education.Education is one of the cornerstones of asuccessful future. We can encourage youngpeople to pursue their dreams and to acquirethe knowledge, skills and attitudes necessaryfor them to become active citizens in theircommunities. F I R S TE D I T I O NThis could mean providing access to diverse educational opportunities,ranging from traditional academic learning to career-readiness programsor vocational training. It can also mean providing access to critical servicessuch as emotional support, mentoring, and guidance counseling services.In addition to educational reform, we must work towards environmentalprotection and sustainability. The planet’s future depends on it! We mustprioritize the protection of our environment by implementing initiativessuch as renewable energy sources, preserving natural habitats, anddecreasing reliance on fossil fuels.4AUTHOR: AGATA AT AGATA BUSINESS SERVICES

Doing so will drastically reduceair pollution, water pollution, andother forms of harmfulenvironmental degradation. Finally, if we want to create abetter future, we need to focus onsocial inclusion and justice. It isour responsibility to make sureeveryone is given an equalopportunity in life regardless oftheir race, gender, religion orsocio-economic status. We mustmake sure our laws are equitableand that all members of societyhave access to resources such ashealthcare, education, jobs andfinancial support. Regulating social media use, campaigning for legislative reform andadvocating for greater affirmative action can help us create a moreinclusive society which will in turn lead to a brighter future. 5

Each project has its own challenges andunique creative opportunities, but I would say that working onBeauty and The Beast was particularly memorable. It was achildhood favorite of mine, and being able to help bring thecharacters to life in three dimensions was truly an honor. Interviewing Casey Nadine BanwellHOLLYWOOD MOVIE SCULPTURE ARTIST FIRST EDITION 2023114

As a model maker and prop builder, I have had the opportunity towork on a variety of productions throughout my career. Some of themost notable projects I have worked on include Cinderella, Tarzan,Alice Through the Looking Glass, Pan, Kingsman, Beauty and TheBeast, and The Nutcracker and the Four Realms. Each of theseproductions has presented its own set of challenges, from creatingelaborate sets to constructing intricate costumes and props.However, working on Beauty and The Beast was an experience thatstood out to me in particular. The film is a beloved classic that hasbeen cherished by generations of viewers, including myself. Being apart of the team that helped bring these iconic characters to life inthree dimensions was an absolute honor.One of the most significant challenges we faced when working onBeauty and The Beast was creating the enchanted rose. The rose wasa central element in the film's storyline, and we needed to make surethat it looked realistic while also being durable enough to withstandthe rigors of filming. It took a lot of experimentation and trial anderror, but we eventually found a solution that worked.Interviewing Casey Nadine BanwellHOLLYWOOD MOVIE SCULPTURE ARTIST FIRST EDITION 2023115

Another memorable moment during the production of Beauty andThe Beast was constructing the Beast's castle. The castle was anelaborate set piece that required intricate detailing and carefulattention to design. It was a massive undertaking, but seeing thefinished product on set was incredibly rewarding.Overall, my experience working on Beauty and The Beast was onethat I will never forget. It was an opportunity to work on a project thatheld a special place in my heart and to contribute to the magic ofcinema in a tangible way. I am grateful for the experience and lookforward to future opportunities to contribute to the world of film andtelevision.

Agata: What’s the most challenging aspect of sculpting for filmproductions?Casey: I would say the most challenging aspect is the timeconstraints. With film productions, everything is on a tight schedule,and there’s a lot of pressure to get things done quickly andaccurately. You have to be able to work fast and efficiently withoutsacrificing quality.Agata: You’ve also worked on private commissioned caricatures andportraits. How does that differ from working on a film production?Casey: Working on private commissions allows for more creativefreedom and collaboration with the client. With film productions,there’s a set design and vision that you have to adhere to, but withprivate commissions, there’s more room for experimentation andpersonal expression.Agata: Any advice for aspiring sculptors?Interviewing Casey Nadine BanwellHOLLYWOOD MOVIE SCULPTURE ARTIST FIRST EDITION 2023117
