This week on the podcast I'm talking to Director Carl Tibbetts. Carl started his career editing before writing and directing his debut feature 'Retreat' starring Cillian Murphy, Thandie Newton and Jamie Bell. Carl then went on to direct two monumental episodes of Black Mirror as well as several other high profile shows like 'Humans', 'Hemlock Grove' and 'The Lazarus Project'.
I talked to Carl about how he got his debut feature off the ground, how he turned that into a career directing television and some of his tips for you to do the same.

Check out the re-release of Jim's first solo directing feature The Witches Hammer - out now on amazon
