We're joined by special guest Andrew Davies to talk networking.
Is it necessary? Can you just go it alone? We discuss both the pros and cons of networking and socialising with peers and clients.
We also have a chat about our go to lenses, what we love about them as well as what niggles us!

Can you change your filming style overnight?
We all want to do something fresh and exciting, it's one of the things drives us to become better filmmakers. But can you just 'level up' overnight? What will your future clients think? Did they book you for your new or old 'style'?
Plus we get technical and talk back up workflow and best practice for archiving old data.

Have you ever lost your 'creative mojo'? There are so many questions when it happens. How did you get there? Can you get that creative spark back?
Rich is stuck with 'creative block' and he can't figure out why it's happened or how to get going again.
Ben offers some advice to help Rich back on his way.
It's one of our biggest concerns, geting someone to shoot for us when we're
unavailable. How do you find someone? Do you have a trusted list?
Did your chosen crew not turn out as good as their showreel?
All this and more in this weeks show!
With the removal of SLOG2 from the latest FX3 firmware, is Sony going to completely give up on LOG? Or are they just housekeeping?
Plus audio issues, kit list wishes and top tips!
Okay so we're running a bit behind, we should probably change the title of this show to our six months in video! This episode was recorded in November but we've only now been able to get it out to you.
In the show we're talking about crazy aspect ratios, wedding backlogs, using the A7S3 for TV work and trusting your 2nd shooters!
In this weeks show we're both feeling a bit de-motivated about the standard of our current work. Is this due to rushing edits, filming the same things over and over again, or are we just getting a bit long in the tooth and it's time to stop. Therefore we're asking each other, can we still be proud of the work we're producing?

In this special we're talking to corporate videography company owner Matt Wilsher. In the space of a few years, as his commercial work took over, Matt went from shooting over 50 weddings a year to zero in 2022.
Matt ran a highly successful wedding videography company, Tear Drop Films, and now after slowly moving to commercial work, he runs an even more successful business, Bullet. He tells us the whens, the whys and the hows in Episode 156 of Our Week in Video

Under the hood they're pretty much the same camera. But let's delve in a bit deeper and weigh up the pros and cons of the FX3 and A7S3
Plus battery talk, audio tips and finding an alternative to the Sony TX650s
In this long awaited show I'm joined by OWIV founder and former host, Mr Ben Bruton-Cox! Yes you heard that correct, I've managed to coax Ben back onto the show for a catch up chat.
Let's dive in and see what he's been up to these last 2.5 years!
In this weeks show we're chatting to Toby Johnson of Handcraft Pictures. He's recently teamed up with London photographers Olivia and Dan to launch a photography/videography workshop.
We speak to Toby, Olivia and Dan about why they're doing this workshop. We also chat about the sometimes thorny issue of photographers and videographers working together! Do you meet before the wedding? What if your styles don't match? What happens if you both want to shoot different ways on the day? All these questions are answered plus much more.
