Trust me, I'm a director
Our next HerioVisual featured artist is editor and
director, Mark Davis.
If you've seen Sherlock, Black Mirror, Peaky Blinders or Unforgotten, then you've also seen Mark's work.
As post-production on his second feature film, The Dark Channel, nears completion, Mark took some time out to talk about his work and how many of the techniques he uses in drama production roll through into his corporate and commercial film making.
