Fk yeah!
Talented Bottles and Chains youngster, Benny McCamerabitch, took out the Bronze Tripod for outstanding News Cinematography in the 2008 Australian Cinematographer Societies Victorian / Tasmania awards on Friday night.
Benny and his Camera-sidekick, Mitchmash, shot the pants off Cameramen from the other Tassie stations and a whole heap of Melburn competition by capturing some freakin’ amazing footage of the Myer building burning down earlier this year. Fk yeah!
