Welcome to episode #24 of The Filmmaker's Playbook, hosted by writer-director Jason Branagan.

On today’s show I talk to cinematographer, JJ Rolfe. JJ’s feature film credits include Dublin Old School, The Bright Side and Deadly Cuts. His TV works includes KIN, Smother, Blackshore, Witness Number 3, The Night Caller, and Harry Wild, amongst others.

In our conversation we discuss JJ’s time at IADT, what he learned as an editor, bringing challenge to your work, the importance of surrounding yourself with a great team, pitching for jobs, dealing with rejection and much more.
