On today’s episode of That Bad Review I chat with Andrew Kennedy. With over 40 years working in video & television production and has worked in various roles in the industry. From shooting jewellery, fashion, medical procedures and interviews, to editing a 4WD programme in the middle of the Simpson Desert or producing and directing commercials.
