"So What's This About?!"

Hi I’m Chris Weaver, welcome to ‘Through The Lens’.

 

Whilst giving a talk to students it became apparent that it's very hard to get solid advice from experienced Film & TV professionals if you're outside the industry. So, I set up this blog to present how-to information, practical advice, tips, tricks and stories from ‘Behind the Scenes’ that you can use immediately in your own work. I hope along the way you’ll find it entertaining, after all there’s no point in being too serious about this stuff – it’s not exactly brain surgery.

 

I’ve got lots of experience and knowledge and I’m keen to share it with you having worked in the Film & TV industry for over 30 years, first as a film cameraman, then a director, then director of photography and more recently as a producer running the UK based production company Free Spirit Film & TV. Anyway enough said. Thanks and have fun! -- Chris.
