Masters of The Air
Apple TV 2024

Specialist Supporting Artist

​

In 2021, I was cast as a United States Army Air Force Medic, for the Apple TV series 'Masters of The Air'.

​

From March to November I took part in filming, between The Chilterns and Oxford; being featured on camera in a key scene involving the rescue of an wounded airman from a bullet/shell-ravaged B-17.

​

I was also featured (in silhouette) in both episode three's build up to the Regensburg Raid, and even more majorly, in the actual opening titles of the series!

​

With my background in prop making/buying, I decided to create a character for the role, the fictional Tech Corporal (later TEC. 3) Joseph James Clark, of Aurora Illinois.

 

As well as obtaining accurately stamped dog tags (for an early war draft); over the several months shooting, I created two sketchbooks 'in character' that a groundcrew member might have drawn, in those violent months when the roar of Wright Cyclone engines filled the skies.
