012: Huw Talfryn Walters
Welcome to the Idle Hands Society Podcast - where we hope to discuss and learn more about the effective creative process.
In this episode, Dan and Paul talk with Cinematographer & Photographer, Huw Talfryn Walters.
Every so often you get a quick sense of the person you’re speaking with; Huw is a patient and deeply thoughtful man.
In this chat, he shares some of his wisdom from over thirty years in the industry. He tells us how it all started (including his nine years assisting), some of his considerations when he’s choosing the right tool for the job, self-funding his travels as a photojournalist, and more.
Reach out to us @idlehandssociety. Your hosts today are @dan_s_higginson, @paulbenceuk and @huwcamera on Instagram.
“Treat the somebodies like nobodies and the nobodies like somebodies.”
