Working collaboratively as a DOP, dinosaur photography and lighting set-ups that keep him up at night.
On this episode we speak to Josh Mitchell-Frey, one of Monster & Bear’s founders and in-house Director of Photography. This guy knows everything about cameras and will do anything for the shot. We chat to him about starting out in the industry, to then working his way up to being a DOP of his own company. Josh also talks us through the beauty of differing creative approaches that each person brings to a project and the constantly changing tech landscape (whilst making sure he doesn’t become a ‘tech boffin’).

Finding success little by little.
Time, money and scope are things often associated as a producer’s priority, but Maria sits down with us and tells us more of what’s in the heart of a producer’s role. We discuss how necessary it is to be adaptable as a producer (especially when the weather can be a producer’s worst enemy).

Working with good creatives and being willing to take a little risk.
Listen along as we chat to Monster and Bear’s Creative Director (and general creative powerhouse) Sarah Hickey, as we discuss her role as a business owner, Film Director and Creative Director. We discuss what those roles look like to her, how she juggles them, and the benefits of diving in the deep end. Sarah tells us about the importance of having thick skin, the power in reframing ‘failures’ as an opportunity to learn, and how sometimes the best thing you can do for a mental refresh is to go for a (really long) walk.
