Behind the scenes with surface designer Gareth Johnson

Want to hear stories from behind the scenes from a set builders perspective? Then listen up.

Put a paintbrush in this mans hand and watch a piece of plain old MDF be transformed into something special and bespoke. In this episode I chat with surface designer Gareth Johnson and no – he’s not a set builder. He’s a whole lot more! He can build anything for a shoot but his speciality is in creating the most realistic surfaces that make him so sought after. We’re talking marble, terrazzo, concrete. During our chat, we cover things that go on (and go wrong) on shoots and how he came to be where he is today. With lots of behind the scenes talk.

Enjoy!
