December Drop In
Our guest at the December Drop In will be Franc Biffone who recently arrived home after shooting in Qatar. Franc was working for petrochemical company Qatro shooting footage for inclusion in both TVCs and a corporate video. He will discuss working with the new Panasonic GH4 and talk about some of the challenges he faced working in the Middle East and having sometimes to look on the brighter side of the situation. Franc will have some interesting stories to tell and some great images to show.
