A while ago I asked you to ask me your questions that you have about video, and thank you to everyone who came back with a question. In this episode I cover podcasting on a budget, podcast set up ideas, video kit ideas, live streaming platforms and questions about microphones.   A right mix of different questions!

In this episode I'm joined by former BBC presenter Rob Smith. 

Rob worked as a presenter at the BBC for almost 20 years, and working in radio before that. I wanted to talk to him about his career and his lessons in dealing with live broadcasts, and how to cope with the pressure of being live with a person talking in your ear. And what the HELL do you do when something goes wrong?

Hello you!

Happy New Year! As we start 2023 I'm joined by Nell Op De Beek a franchisee of Action Coach, public speaker and all round good egg. I wanted to talk to Nell about how she advises her clients to use video, how she uses it herself, and how public speaking can help your videos, especially your presentation skills on camera. 

Nell holds the record for being the only person to invite herself onto the show (something I'm extremely grateful for as it was a fantastic conversation)

And let me know any burning questions you have about video going into the new year.

In the final Christmas special of 2022, I'm joined by Social Butterfly Media's Laura Budd as we discuss all of the John Lewis ads from 2013 to 2021. There have been some great Christmas ads from the King of Christmas ads over the years so it was great fun to watch them back and talk about how they worked so well.

I've worked with Cameron Harris on and off for around 5 years. But during the first and second lockdowns in 2020 I was talking to Cameron every single day. We were creating wall to wall content to help his business keep running and attract new customers during the pandemic. 

It's been really interesting talking to Cameron about how these videos changed how his business worked, from a gym in the City of London to a number of prestigious clients worldwide, video has really helped his business grow. This is a fascinating conversation and I hope you enjoy it. Cameron is really killing it on Linkedin as well, so it was interesting to talk to him about his unforgiving posting schedule.

I met Dan Farrell at the ICAP Conference, and during my interview with him as soon as I heard the words 'film school' I knew I needed Dan to come onto The Video Show as a guest. 

Dan runs Sparks Film and Media which is a film school for children ages 5-18. They put together extra-curricular classes for kids to create their own films and hone their skills to become film makers. 

It's a subject I'm hugely passionate about.

A lot of what I do involves creating videos that are specifically for, or are repurposed for social media. So it made sense to talk about how best to create social media ads with an expert. So I enlisted the help of Rob Kearsey from RMK Marketing. In this episode we discuss Rob's career in radio, the best place to create social media ads, and what could improve from various platforms.

In the second episode of our Christmas series I'm once again joined by Laura Budd from Social Butterfly Media to discuss the John Lewis Advert for 2022.

I love talking to other people who compliment what I do as a video producer, whether it's photographers, editors or today's guest a motion graphics designer. Steven Mills is one of the directors at Traphic Agency. They're graphics and motion graphics designers specialising in animated videos.
