| Dean Mitchell was raised in Cambridgeshire, England. People thought he would grow out of his unrealistic ambition of working in film and television. However, during his 13 year career in computer support he always held on to that dream then gave up his profession to pursue working in the film industry. Over recent years Dean has been fortunate enough to work on set with most of his childhood heroes.
After all... “How many people get the chance to work in a job they enjoy?”
Dean Mitchell feels honoured to attend conventions when asked and enjoys meeting other Star Wars' fans and sees this as an opportunity to raise money for charity from convention appearances. He can also team up with Adam J Smith who also worked in the UK as Tundra Dowmeia (right) so fans can get both signatures on the one shot! “I'm suprised by the interest shown in what I did but understand some fans are die-hard collectors and completists. Maybe because few in the UK were lucky enough to work on Episode III makes mine a rare autograph to obtain?”
Having had some very near misses on the prequels he worked on the best one in the end. It's ironic that what is probably his smallest involvement in a production gains the most attention. Dean likes the variety of working in the industry that this level gives him and isn't interested in a main feature. While training in Performing Arts he decided the stage was not for him. “ “I'm a big believer in achieving your ambitions, you've got to take risks but sometimes you're just lucky!””
