BACKGROUND
I ( Adele Flere ) began working in the Film & Television Industry in the mid 80s. Having studied Fashion Design I worked for a short time in Costume , however quickly got lured into the magical Art Department to work as a Stand By. Then I moved onto Buying / Dressing and Decorating, followed by Art Directing and Designing. Every so often I get the chance to combine my costume role which is always fun !
This evolution has given me a solid understanding of how the Art Dept works and what is required from each and everyone in the team. I love to be hands on where possible. Most of my work has been in Australia but I have been lucky enough to do a couple of films overseas which has been both challenging and rewarding.
I went on to study Interior Design while working and have a keen interest in Art, Architecture, History and Culture, Restoration and Travel. My partner and I have owned and run a mid century furniture and collectables store for three years alongside the film and T.V work. I have also done a number of café/ pub fit outs and decorated privately for clients selling homes.
My experience is varied in Film and TV, contemporary and period, comedy and drama. I’ve also done some TVC work with companies to include Exit, Radical Media, Film Business and Great Southern.
Film & TV projects include - The Secret Life of Us 1,2,3 & 4, Irresistable featuring Susan Sarandon, Till Human Voices Wake Us with Guy Perce and Helena Bonham Carter, and The Pacific to name a few. Utopia Season 2 , The Spirit of the Game, and The Dr Blake Mysteries 1,2,3 & 4 most recently.
