I first met Archie Proudfoot back in 2016 when I had just spent too much on a new video camera I didn’t have the work to justify…

I wanted to make a series about artisans in London and contacted a handful of people with Archie not only getting back to me the quickest but being fully onboard with the idea. With nothing good to show him I’m still not sure how I convinced him to agree to it but that one film turned into my long running series “Made in London” and effectively kickstarted my career.

Skip forward to 2021 and I made time to revisit him with Work/Life Films to chat about his current work and the role of the artist in today’s society. Looking forward to returning in another five years…

In The Studio is short documentary series going behind the scenes of the artist’s studio to learn about their creative process and the things that inspire them.
