#98 - Cine Glass, Grading & Careers Without Film School w/ Elliot Holbrow
<p>London-based cinematographer Elliot Holbrow joins Tom and Greg to talk about building a career through curiosity rather than formal training, the craft of collaborating with directors, and why shooting on film, whether a Canon Scoopic or 35mm Vision 3, continues to shape how he thinks about images. From decoding the DP's role on a commercial set to the politics of the colour grade, this is a rich conversation about what it actually takes to develop a visual sensibility in the moving image world.Thank you for listening to The Exposed Negative Podcast.
