Sports Cinematographer Josh Laszlo and I discuss how Josh discovered his dream job, traveling for work, gear, the difficulties of getting the shot in the 60 seconds you have with the players and trying to make it feel fresh every time. He and I catch up on projects we ran into each other on, and how sometimes you need to ditch perfection and having proper work life balance.

Other topics include the chaos of working in sports media, working with famous athletes, using Twitter to find work, how much money it can take to invest in your own camera gear, and the challenges of finding work-life balance, especially when you're traveling a lot for work.

The J-Cut Podcast is a weekly podcast hosted by me - independent filmmaker Mike Chantaj - where I sit down to talk with other creative people about their careers, passions and lives. The hope is to expand people's ideas about what kinds of creative careers are out there, be it in film, art, music and more.
