Ryan Chapman, Chief Octopus
I've followed stories and subjects to every corner of the globe: from favela evictions in Brazil to Shaolin monks in China and from high fashion in Milan to high altitude in the Alps.
Filmmaking has been my thing for over a decade, since graduating from the Cambridge School of Art with a first-class honours degree in Film and TV Production in 2012.
I started Videoctopus because I wanted to offer a middle-ground option. Somewhere in between basic, bare-bones productions on a shoestring, and large scale productions with a big crew and an even bigger budget.
