In this episode, I’m joined by TV director Richard Franc - better known as Butch -his credits include Aussie staples like MasterChef and Australian Survivor, as well as international hits such as Amazon Prime Video’s Beast Games and NBC’s Deal or No Deal Island.
Over the past 30 years, Butch has carved out an incredible career across a huge range of genres—from live sport and panel shows to game shows and large-scale reality formats.
I find out how he went from directing regional newsroom bulletins to becoming one of the most sought-after directing talents in the industry.
