EditorialFollowing the intensity of the exams and the clamour of end of term activities including Cabaret, Sports Days, the Art Exhibition, Charities Day and Prizegiving, you would think that the tranquillity of the summer break lies ahead. Not so! Nowadays the school campus operates throughout the year with many activities taking place on site and elsewhere during the holidays. It is fantastic to have such a vibrant School with so much on offer for our pupils.

As you will know, Gareth Edwards has indicated his intention to step down as Principal in June 2014 and our new Principal will be Melvyn Roffe, currently Principal of Wymondham College in Norfolk. Features on both will be included in forthcoming issues of Caritas.

At the time of going to press we await with interest our first ever International Baccalaureate results in early July, with the SQA and GCSE results due in August. This is always a tense time for pupils and we hope that they reach their own personal goals.

It is encouraging to see how far the School has come in its bursary provision for pupils with financial needs. Without the extensive financial assistance offered through the George Watson’s Family Foundation, Watson’s would be a very different place. Please give your support to this year’s Annual Fund, details of which are included with this issue of Caritas.

On a sadder note, the Watson’s community has been stunned by the recent losses of Rodney Mallinson (former Deputy Principal) and Ken Dunbar (Master of the Merchant Company). More information will be carried in The Watsonian, which is published in October and all Watsonian obituary notifications we receive can be viewed at Watsonians Online.

This year we say goodbye to our retiring staff once again and pictured below are the staff who retired in June, (left to right) Peter Stark (29 years), Hugh Paterson (21 years) and Jennifer Grant (15 years).

Finally, congratulations to Niamh, our Director of Fundraising, who married Mark Allan (Class of 1998) in May.

I wish everyone an enjoyable summer!

Every gift in every Willmakes a difference.

My first memory of the Music School at George Watson’s is being marched over from the prep in Primary 2 in my short trousers to see the Duke of Edinburgh visit it! This musical Starship Enterprise figured a lot in my musical and personal growing-up over the next 11 years.

Right from the start in Primary 1, I was struck by the joy of music-making with the wonderful singing led by Mrs Stewart. She was a great improviser and could embellish a song in any key and at the age of five it sounded as if she had 50 fingers! My primary school experience was further enhanced by inspirational teaching from Ian Gordon for two years. I will never forget being taken through all the details in the Quintinshill railway disaster in episodes, rather like a soap opera or the best whodunnit!

As I entered the Senior School a great eccentric character pootled into all our musical lives, Patrick (Paddy) Criswell. Usually late and as if he hadn’t brushed his hair for a month he breezed in on his “pop-pop” (scooter) wearing yet another paisley-patterned bow-tie (self-tied of course!)

Patrick was a great enabler and enthusiast. The musical standard may not have been as pristine as in Norman Hyde’s time but Paddy made sure that everyone who wanted to be involved in the orchestra or the choir was included. He could play various instruments himself, piano, organ, bassoon, viola,

all with more flair than polish and my abiding memory of him is with a viola under his chin, legs entwined, peering through his filthy glasses at some score that was slightly beyond him! He would organise read-throughs of piano quintets, quartets etc before school or in the lunch hour just for the love of playing music. Made better for him, if there was a particularly attractive young French or Geography teacher playing second fiddle he could gently flirt with!!

Aside from the Music Department I really would not be doing what I do today in my profession as a song pianist, playing songs in French and German almost every day of my life and working in those countries, if it hadn’t been for the enthusiasm and expertise of Ron Looker and Sandy Keith. Ron gave me the thrill of language and the structure of grammar in my Latin classes with more than the occasional diversion into Gaelic, Norwegian and sometimes even Mah Jong, and Sandy the particular skills in French and German.

Mike Gill from the Art Department also gave me wonderful opportunities in performing in his productions of Oliver as a seedy undertaker, Mr Sowerberry and as the poet in James Elroy Flecker’s Hassan. Mike instilled in me a passion for drama and the theatre, which is still with me, and I go to the theatre whenever I have a day off anywhere.

Lessons for Life The music teacher who luckily was still

teaching until I was in Third Year and whose generosity towards me still feeds my musical life and of many others was Richard (Dickie) Telfer whose colourful and not always tasteful organ playing greeted the school each morning at Assembly. A founding member of Scottish Opera and a great friend of Sir Alexander Gibson (AG as Dickie called him!) he was the first person who introduced me to opera. I still remember the LP that he lent me with Carmen on one side and Tosca on the other! He provided tickets for many performances and sneaked me into rehearsals, even getting me to play when I was 15 years old for a session with Janet Baker! If he wasn’t free to use his season ticket for the SNO concerts on a Friday he also just gave me his ticket in the front row of the Grand Tier! From that seat I was lucky to hear Rubinstein, Menuhin and many others. His classes were entertaining and informative. As he took us through the implausible plots of Turandot and Boheme his very expensive coffee machine dripped in the corner!

My time at Watson’s was such an amazing training for the life I am incredibly lucky to be leading now. I am very happy to see the tradition continuing both in the musical and academic departments.Malcolm Martineau(Class of 1977)

Important News for our American DonorsFrom October 2013 we will be supported by the British Schools and Universities Foundation, Inc. (BUSF) to process our American donations. BSUF was used by George Watson’s College previously and has been in existence for over 50 years. It has been approved by the United States Treasury Department as an exempt charitable organisation.

The huge benefit is that grants are paid in Pounds Sterling, at 100% of the amounts contributed by donors, who then qualify for US tax deductions. There are no fees or other charges.

BSUF is a non profit, tax-exempt Foundat ion with no ful l - t ime staff or office overheads, managed by volunteers who serve without compensation of any kind. Its operating expenses and awards are supported by income from investment of its own funds, by member dues and by contributions from friends.

If you express a preference for the George Watson’s Family Foundation, BSUF will notify us with your contact information by email, the same day they receive the donation.

Please visit the website (www.bsuf.org) for more information, to donate online, or to download a BSUF Donor Transmittal form. Cheques should be made out to BSUF with a notation that preference is given to the George Watson’s Family Foundation and should be sent to the British Schools and Universities Foundation, Inc. 575 Madison Avenue, Suite 1006, New York, NY 10022-2511.

Ex Corde Caritas

Thank you to Watson’s pupils and their family and friends who once again came together to support the vital work of the George Watson’s Family Foundation in the second term.

On a very cold March Day our Lower Primary and Nursery pupils completed a Dinosaur Stomp around the School grounds. Pictured above are some of the pupils with School mascot Rex Corde in the George Watson’s College Centre for Sport.

The Upper Primary completed year group activities with great enthusiasm, all of which related in some way to the curriculum. In addition there were many other fundraising events, which brought the final total to £11,362. The funds raised by the Junior School will contribute to the funding of a new Junior School Hall.

In the Senior School on Foundation Day the pupils had a dress down day with all funds raised going towards financial assistance for pupils to experience the opportunity of a Watson’s education. In total £3,757 was raised.

Donation with a Difference

Donations to the School can take many forms. Pictured above is an S3 Chemistry Class with a sodium chloride model, which was donated to the School by current parent Dr Gavin Whittaker.

Roy’s Legacy“During my last year at Watson’s, I will be working to raise awareness of the importance of legacies and, where possible, to secure pledges which will benefit the School for many years to come. Watson’s was founded on a legacy and the need for support of the School has not diminished. At present we know of 105 legacy pledges which is a wonderful commitment from those who have chosen to inform us of their intentions, and I believe that together we can significantly increase this number. To date, legacy income has made a considerable difference to Watson’s and has helped, amongst other projects, to build The Convie Wing, create the new George Watson’s College Centre for Sport, establish bursaries and support numerous prizes and projects. Recent legacy notifications are from the estates of Margaret Newton (Class of 1938), May Nicol (former staff), the remaining installment from Margaret Weir (Class of 1934) and Peter Fraser (Class of 1944).

I shall be contacting many people in the coming year, as I believe strongly that with your help we can make a significant difference to the future of Watson’s. If you are considering leaving a legacy, and would like to discuss the impact that a legacy can have, please contact me.

Those who pledge a legacy can join our Caritas Society, and, as a member myself, I would be delighted to see you at future events. The Caritas Society event for this year was a private viewing of the School Art Exhibition.”

Scotland isn’t a newcomer to hosting the Commonwealth Games – the city of Edinburgh has twice had the honour, in 1970 and 1986. Glasgow 2014 will sell an estimated 1 million tickets to some 250 medal events. The Games will be broadcast to hundreds of millions of viewers, with the Commonwealth accounting for about a third of the world’s population.

Sports included in the Games are Aquatics, Athletics, Badminton, Boxing, Cycling, Gymnastics, Hockey, Judo, Lawn Bowls, Netball, Rugby Sevens, Shooting, Squash, Table Tennis, Triathlon, Weightlifting and Wrestling and we are hopeful that some Watsonians will be included in the Scottish team for the Games. Please let us know if you hear of any Watsonians who have been selected. This information will be put on Watsonians Online or Facebook so that we can all get behind our Watsonian competitors. Below is an article from one of our Commonwealth Games hopefuls.

Glasgow2014It was at Watson’s that I started the sport that would begin as a hobby, but would quickly become both my job and my life. At the time of writing this I am in the process of completing the final preparation for the 2013 European Judo Championships after qualifying through a gold medal in the Argentina Panamerican Open in March. I remember sitting in assembly and listening to Sir Chris Hoy talk about his days in Watson’s and being incredibly impressed by him. He spoke about focus, determination and self-belief. These are traits that not only help you excel in sport, but in life. I had played a number of sports before judo, including rugby, cricket and briefly, hockey. Despite being naturally competitive, I never found a sport that was for me. In fifth year I started judo after school on a Friday afternoon, with Just-Judo coach Tony Penfold. These classes are still held on a Saturday morning and continue to produce some fantastic judoka!

I quickly fell in love with the sport and spent every moment I could on the judo mat, finding all of the qualities Chris Hoy had spoken of. My training was quickly upped from Friday afternoons to daily as I joined the Edinburgh Judo Club,

Seven yea r s later, as a part of the Scotland and British teams, I look ahead to next year. A year that sees Scotland hosting the most exciting sporting event it has ever seen. I am referring to the 2014 Glasgow Commonwealth Games. George Watson’s has a fantastic sporting history. You need look no further than the most successful Scottish athlete ever! Next year I hope to step onto the Commonwealth Judo mat and continue Sir Chris’s legacy, and to continue that success in 2016 in the Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games.Patrick Dawson(Class of 2006)

JasonReturns to Watsonians

I was very fortunate to receive the Adrian Strasser Scholarship to enable me to spend my sixth year at Watson’s, staying in the bughut. I have some great memories of Matron and Mr Brown running a tight ship in the boarding house, or at least trying to! Coming from a great state school in Aberdeen I was still greatly impressed by the School’s facilities and how the School went about educating us all. We had a great season with the 1st XV, only losing one game.

After leaving School I fought my way into the senior Watsonian rugby team and was delighted to sign my first professional rugby contract in 1998. I then played for clubs in Scotland, England and France

in a 14 year career. To represent Scotland was a great highlight and to also be the captain was something I could never have imagined doing.

Now that my career has finished it has been time to look to the future. My family and I are moving back to Scotland after 10 years away. I will be working in two roles, with an oil company called Xodus and also with Red Sky Management. I will also be coaching at Watsonians with Marcus Di Rollo (Class of 1996), and Barry Stewart. We are all looking forward to next season and the chance to work with school leavers like Matt Poole and Neil Irvine-Hess. I am looking forward to catching up with many friends through the rugby club, but also strengthening the ties with the School.

Pre season training started on 2 July and I hope to see as many of you there as possible.Jason White(Class of 1996)The Adrian Strasser Scholarship was a one year award in memory of former pupil Adrian Strasser (Class of 1974).

Please visit the links on Watsonians Online to our Watsonian Sports sections. Special congratulations to Watsonian Ladies Hockey who will be playing in National League Division 1 next season.

The Road to Sochi

Congratulations to Anna Vincenti and Devon Troup (both Class of 2013) and to Catriona Rother (Class of 2007), Elizabeth Boyle (Class of 2008), and Kirsty MacMillan (Class of 2009) who have all been awarded Watsonian Travel Grants. Pictured above is Anna, who is a freestyle skier and aims to gain selection for the GB team at the Sochi Winter Olympics.

I think I have one of the best jobs that there could be. I work as a doctor and clinician scientist and specialise in diseases due to genes going wrong. I use the skills and experience from my clinical practice to research better ways to care for our patients, not only by making new discoveries in the lab and the clinic, but also directly by improving the services we offer to patients in Scotland. Here I have outlined how childhood at Watson’s and later training placed me to do my job, and some of my achievements I made in this fascinating field.

I was born in Edinburgh, the youngest of four. My long name comes from my Polish father. He fought in World War II as a bomber pilot, and then was an RAF test pilot for many years. He moved to Edinburgh to work for Ferranti with my English mum three years before I was born. Nowadays, it is not that unusual for someone with a very unpronounceable name to have a native Scottish accent. Back in 1970, very few of the little “ladies” enrolling at GWLC had non-British names; no others were bilingual. My earliest memory of school is sitting in a classroom in St. Alban’s Road. Mrs Fraser slickly read the register to the end of the “Ms”, but then there was a long pause as I squirmed in my seat and she attempted to say some part of my name. Thereafter the lesson to any new teacher on how to pronounce my name became an annual anticipated source of amusement for the class.

I enjoyed four years at the all girls St Alban’s Road. Memories are of PE in regulation underwear, playground tig, skipping, the sand pit, little glass bottles of milk with paper straws, and, age eight, coming home alone on two buses across Edinburgh. I first expressed an interest in medicine around that time. I persuaded my much older brother to help me to operate on my doll with a two-handled bow saw. She was left with a most satisfactory scar.

Moving from the all girls GWLC to Colinton Road to “join up with the boys” for P5 was a big step. The new

The DNA of Success

class was 2/3 boys, 1/3 girls. This was 1975, the year of the Sex Discrimination Act. For the first time, UK law required men and women to be treated equally. No wonder I became passionately aware of equality issues in school and the workplace. I remember the teachers really working to ensure that both sexes were treated equally, in a social context of massive gender gaps in employment and achievement. Watson’s gave me the chance to see that both sexes could be equally treated, that girls could achieve in all areas as well as boys, but also to see that the inevitable experiences of prejudice can be addressed and generally triumphed over. A low point was knitting mittens with the girls whilst the boys did an exciting construction project with sticky tape and margarine tubs. In contrast, I have fantastically positive memories of my friend Susan and I being the first girls to join the school projection crew. The “proj crew” not only ran the sound system for all assemblies and school performances, but also set up and operated the School’s professional stage lighting systems. We built full size scaffolding towers, hung heavy lights out of hatches in the assembly hall roof and manned the lighting panel with virtually no supervision. We never dropped one, we never got hurt and School shows ran efficiently and well. Best of all, we were congratulated for effective lighting of the school show by a member of staff who had thought we could not do the job. He left us to try and then he celebrated our success.

Watson’s encouraged me to learn to try to succeed in a wide variety of areas, which I still reap the rewards of today. Opportunities in drama made the transition to lecturing to medical students straightforward, and I am especially grateful for the classroom opportunities that prepared me for a career in medical research. I loved caring for the biology department menagerie, dissecting rats and bulleyes, fishing for leeches in the canal and coring soil

samples from the School flowerbeds. Beyond class, School gave me my first tastes of real hillwalking- at Ardtrostan and S3 Projects – which has become a lifetime’s pleasure.

I studied medicine at University of Aberdeen and graduated with Commendation in 1988, awarded gold medals for surgery, as best female graduand in medicine. Following house jobs and a year of obstetrics, I won a competitive research fellowship and went on to complete my PhD. The gene for cystic fibrosis had just been discovered, and I performed the first test in our lab for the common gene change. For the first time we could test a member of the public for a gene change that put them at risk of having an affected child. Having set up the lab tests, I developed a project to evaluate the scientific, psychological and economic aspects of use of that test in the clinic, work that is still being quoted in the medical literature today.

Therea f t e r I comple t ed ba s i c obstetrics and gynaecology training and examinations, and entered higher specialist training in clinical genetics in 1996. I had had thoughts of moving on, but the Aberdeen genetics training post became vacant just when I needed one. One year later, I moved to a Clinical Lecturer post in the University of Aberdeen which once more gave me dedicated research time, as well as duties teaching genetics to medical and science students.

That year I met Chris at a kayak slalom and we spent many weekends paddling Scotland’s whitewater together. We married following a successful descent of 250 miles of a Northern Canadian wilderness river in an unsupported canoe.

Susan is awarded PrestigiousMedal

Congratulations to Susan Tomes (Class of 1972) who was recently awarded the Walter Willson Cobbett Medal by the Worshipful Company of Musicians ‘for distinguished services to the art of chamber music’. The award is one that means a lot to musicians in the chamber music world; previous winners have included Sir Edward Elgar, Vaughan Williams, Dame Myra Hess. Yehudi Menuhin, Pablo Casals and Gerald Moore. The 2013 award was presented at a dinner in Stationers’ Hall.

Coronation TreesIn 1953 to celebrate the forthcoming Coronation, 23 cherry and crab apple trees were planted at the front of the School. The Junior School trees were planted by pupils Brian Thom (Class of 1962) and Colin Young (Class of 1965). We were delighted that Colin returned to Watson’s on 4 June with brothers Graham (Class of 1958) and Gordon (Class of 1962) to commemorate the event. Below is the original photo from 1953 and a second photo taken in June 2013 of Colin beside the tree he helped to plant 60 years ago.

After leaving school in 1965, C o l i n l i v e d a n d w o r k e d i n Edinburgh before emigrating to Sydney, Australia, where he took up a position with Singapore Airlines. There, he also married a girl from Bathgate and raised two boys who still live in Sydney. Throughout his 25 years in Australia he worked in the Sydney Opera House and Norman Hyde would have been proud of his knowledge of opera. Following the sad death of his wife, he returned to the UK and now lives near Durham. But, as a staunch Hibs fan, he often comes north to frequent the terraces at Easter Road.

The Watsonian Club Open MeetingThe Watsonian Club Open Meeting will take place on Thursday 6 March 2014 at 7pm at Myreside, chaired by Watsonian President Lorna Baird. The meeting will outline the key elements of activity within The Club and School over the past year and provide the point of handover between the outgoing and incoming President. All Watsonians are welcome to attend.

The following day, Friday 7 March 2014 is Founder’s Day and the retiring President will lay a wreath in the entrance hall. At the beginning of the formal proceedings the Principal will ask the retiring President to hand over the chain of office to the new President in front of the School pupils and guests.

The Watsonian AwardFollowing many successful years of awarding travel grants to Watson’s leavers and more recently to former pupils, The Watsonian Club asked former President and Watson’s staff member Rod Slater to come up with some ideas as to how the money could be used to greater benefit. Following Rod’s presentation to Watsonian Council, the following was agreed.

The Award will be for up to £4,000 for a Watsonian aged 25 or younger.

Applicants will be asked initially to complete a short online form, which summarises how receiving this award could enable them to make life changing decisions for the benefit of themselves or others. Applications for gap year travel and medical electives will not normally be considered.

Applications should be made by Friday 11 October 2013 at www.watsonians.org/fundingforwatsonians

Sarah holds her UK Coaching Certificate and currently runs her own equestrian coaching business. In her spare time Sarah competes in showjumping and dressage on her own horse Allezara.

Robin Goodfellow (Classof1986)

Whilst enjoying basketball and swimming at school, he was more at home in the library as the likes of Miss Fortescue and Mrs Stewart fed his lifelong passion for the written word.

Surprisingly good exam results led to time at Napier, followed by various jobs before he settled down to a 21 year career with Standard Life. Last year he left to set up his own consultancy company, which allows him to travel widely and get paid for it!

JohnHogg(Classof1980)

John has happy memories of his schooldays. He pursued an engineering career with British Rail, moving on to fulfill a long time ambition to become a Firefighter, retiring in 2012. Now he lives in Grantown on Spey, working with Scotrail as an Engineering Instructor. He enjoys annual return visits to the “Old School”, and travelling around as Past President of the Rotary Club of Spey Valley. He feels both privileged and proud to be a Watsonian.

Neil Dickson

Neil Dickson (Classof1967)

Neil’s influential teachers were “Tiger” Jamieson and Ivan Wells (Mathematics) and Donald Doull (English). After graduating from St Andrews and Oxford, he lectured in Mathematics at Glasgow University. Early retirement gives him time to independently examine charity accounts. After 56 years as a bachelor he married Pippa. They live in Kelso. Neil is a keen swimmer, in spite of hating sports at school! Research into academic dress led to his election as a Fellow of the Burgon Society (see photo).

JillAllan(Classof1959)

Jill has happy memories of George Square from 1947 to 1959 – including the ‘commute’ from North Berwick. An MA/Dip Ed at Edinburgh led to a London job with Unilever, teaching on their ‘in house’ typing courses. Jill joined her ‘ex-Stewarts’ husband in Germany then Sweden before returning to the Midlands. After her third son reached school age, she worked for a small advertising research agency, eventually staying for nearly 30 years and watching it become part of WPP. Now settled in Rugby, she is well placed transport-wise for involvement with her local grandchildren and those in Grantown on Spey and Tring. Jill keeps busy with badminton, quilting, The National Association of Decorative & Fine Arts Societies and The University of the Third Age.

JohnHastie(Classof1953)

Following his National Service, John emigrated to Canada embarking on a successful international banking career with The Royal Bank of Canada.

John was posted back to the UK on three separate occasions making him wonder why he left in the first place. His recollection of Watson’s is centred on Sandy Mac’s leather strap and the Cadet Corps. John lives with his wife, Sheila, in Southern Ontario, Canada and has two adult children. Last year he was awarded the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Medal for his volunteer service to Prostate Cancer Care.

John Hastie

On completing genetics training in labs and the clinic, I was promoted first to Senior Lecturer and Consultant, and then to Reader in Medical Genetics. Six months on from the birth of my daughter I additionally acquired the role of head of the NHS Grampian genetics lab and clinical services.

I enjoy management and ensuring genetics services are of the highest quality, but my biggest buzz still comes from research. High points have been running the largest study in the world of clubfoot, discovering a new gene and a new mechanism for autism and introducing DNA testing to identify a rare variant of high cholesterol – familial hypercholesterolaemia – ahead of the English NHS.

Most recently I have enjoyed establishing a new University Centre, that has raised the funding for equipment I dubbed “The Aberdeen Gene Machine”. This has created an infrastructure for large scale gene sequencing that can look at all of an organisms genes – from single cell bacteria to humans, sharks, bees and bugs. A key use of the equipment will be to sequence the genes within cancers, with the goal of targeting the right treatment to each cancer. I take a junk model of the “Gene Machine” to public engagement events and have really enjoyed explaining genetics to even the youngest primary school children.

I live in the Aberdeenshire countryside at the Back of Bennachie, with the family, five hens and a hamster. I have a great job in a booming city on the largest hospital site i n Eu r o p e , in a wor ld-leading medical research institute. A s a p a r e n t I p a d d l e a n d w a l k l e s s t h a n b e f o r e , b u t s k i and run a little more. And I even learned to roller ski this year… I have many blessings.Dr Zosia Miedzybrodzka MB ChB, PhD, FRCP Edin, FRCOG(Class of 1983)

InspiringFounder’s Day Speech

We were delighted to welcome back former Head Boy David Wolstencroft (Class of 1987) as our 2013 Founder’s Day speaker. David is an award winning screenwriter and author and wrote the BAFTA nominated series Psychos, for which he received the Royal Television Society’s Best Newcomer Award. He is also the creator of Spooks, which ran for ten series on BBC 1. His current project, The Escape Artist will air on BBC 1 later this year.

Coming back to Watson’s sparked many memories for David and he admitted that he had enjoyed himself immensely – those of us who were in the Assembly Hall to hear his speech also thoroughly enjoyed their day.

I joined George Watson’s College at age five and I was there all the way to age 18, so at the time I never knew anything different. However, I now increasingly realise how special that opportunity was and am extremely thankful and grateful to have had the opportunities and experiences that were possible in those 13 years. I loved School art competitions and all the projects we got to do at a younger age. The Art Department was like a second home to some of us in Senior School and when they built the very cool new graphics department, and with the enthusiasm of Mr Bell and Mr Dean my curiosity of graphics and Photoshop really took over! We were a very small class when they first launched it as a subject, with only one other girl in my class. Gary Horton and I used Photoshop to scan illustrations and

create the design with Illustrator; also to make the tickets to all the dances, and in 6th year we were even given permission to design a graffiti wall for the Common Room. I cannot believe that, given the opportunity to start working with Photoshop at the very early age of 14, I now have 18 years of experience of the tool which has proved to be the backbone of my career so far.

Growing up with unconventional hairdressing parents I was always drawn to anything creative and was obsessed with fashion and glossy images – I was always asking permission to miss class for little modelling jobs or going with my parents to live shows in London, work placements, photoshoots, or for TV filming, and got my first photography credit at age 12. Although I had no idea what I would do or where I would end up it was pretty clear to everyone else it would be something in the world of creativity. Somebody even wrote in my year book that I would end

Still Colouringup in Hollywood but at the time I never would have believed that would come true just five years later. All I knew and focused on was that I wanted to create beautiful pictures and loved the possibilities all the new technology brought.

I had a secret dream of becoming a photographer since being a child but knowing that it was an incredibly competitive industry I focused on my love of graphic design and Photoshop as a safer route to get me there. I was incredibly inspired by one of my parent’s peers, creative director Robert Lobetta, who made some crazy and wonderful imagery. It became my absolute mission to work with him and learn how to create images like he and his wife Kay Lobetta were creating using old techniques and new technology. I studied in Manchester

learning everything I could over five years including graphic design, advanced Photoshop, studio lighting, photography, fashion, film processing, printing, website design, marketing, video and editing.

During this time I went to Los Angeles for a work experience placement with the Lobetta’s and after graduating was offered a three month internship with them. The day after I graduated I went to LA and stayed for eight years after qualifying for the 0–1 visa which was a great honour in itself. I worked exclusively with Robert and his team taking on more and more responsibility. I started with Photoshop and graphics, my first images being some of the most challenging creations to date and were published all over the world; it was a fantastic way to learn – it was sink or swim time! Soon, I was in charge of fashion styling and some art direction and production roles along with the most coveted post-production specialist. It was an experience that set me up for life. I was soon styling for magazines

and other b r a n d advertising campaigns and wi th celebrities for music video and events such as the Oscars.

I have travelled all over the world, fashion styling huge shows which we actually featured in ourselves, for audiences of up to 4,500. One job just led to another; at the same time I was working with the most prestigious retouching lab in LA and before long I had “retouched” covers of all the big magazines I could only have dreamt of working for growing up. LA was a fantastic experience, working on an

amazing set in Malibu and the Hollywood Hills and the amazing movie and photo studios. All through this time I learnt everything I could on all the biggest sets and productions until recently deciding that it was time to pick up a camera myself. I moved to Paris after a show with the Lobettas there and I just fell in love with the city and have never been happier. I now manage the whole production, around and including the photography, and can be as hands on as the job/client requires. Sometimes I just have to pinch myself – it has been a lot of work but I have met some amazing people and now the next chapter is beginning I am very excited about what comes next!

One constant remains true, to this day some of the best people I know in the world came from the friendships made and encouraged at Watson’s and I love seeing how everyone is doing all these years later. Ebony Cheyne (Class of 1998)
