Our Guest This Episode
Ed Bengoa
ITN
Director of Post Production
Ed is currently the Director of Post Production at the UK-based news and content producer ITN, where she has worked since 2021. Prior to this Ed was the Head of Post Production at MSV Post, part of the Tinopolis group of companies and also has experience working as the Facilities Manager with Directors Cut Films. Audio was her first love, and she spent nine years working with BBC Studioworks in a variety of audio-related roles. Prior to this, she worked as a dubbing editor at the leading post-production house, Molinare.
Even if you don't want to move from one thing to another, just experiencing something else does give you a better understanding of what you're doing day-to-day as well. So all that cross pollination I think is always positive
