TWO STOPS OVER is a podcast about filmmaking with two ruffians, director Nigel Dick and cinematographer Vance Burberry ASC, ACS. They have travelled the world together and independently, shooting hundreds and hundreds of music videos, movies and commercials and, in Vance's case, a lot of fish. Drawing from their film-making experiences over the last three decades these two mischief-makers will interrogate, question and cross-examine a different guest on each episode in their efforts to establish final closure on the time Vance tried to blow off Nigel's leg with a bag of fireworks during a location scout. Guests will include a wide array of reputable peers and friends working in the industry and at least one rock n’ roller who has had it with music videos. Our hosts are based in Los Angeles and, although one is technically a Brit and the other is technically an Aussie, it is hoped that some useful film-making tips and interesting behind-the-scenes gossip will be shared, not to mention passionate discussions about whether the craft service table should include Marmite or Vegemite. You have been warned - and so have their future guests!
Two Stops Over is produced by Milktmade.
