This week on the podcast I'm talking to Cinematographer Benedict Spence. Benedict has been working in the industry for over twenty years having started out on reality television, working on the very first series of 'The Only Way is Essex'. He's now working on big shows having been Emmy nominated for his work on "The end of the f***ing world" on Netflix, he also worked on 'This is going to hurt" for AMC/the BBC and most recently on Eric starring Benedict Cumberbatch and a seven foot monster called Eric.

I talked to Ben about his career, how he got into the industry, we talked about some of the challenges of being a cinematographer, we talked about Eric and what it was like working with a seven foot puppet on a television set and we also talked about his tips for you to get into the industry. Enjoy!
