Bruce Newton

A love for art, photography, writing and music led Bruce to the world of film making. But that was just the dream. His first job in 1998 was as a driver for a film catering company.

He cracked it as a runner some time later and did that for almost 4 years. He did cameos as a spark, a grip, an art department assistant, as a loader and a VT Operater assistant.In 2001 he decided to specialise in Video Assist and in 2002 opened Scarab Industries. Bruce says - "Even though I have been operating for many years now, I work with such inspiring creatives and directors that I still enjoy my job thoroughly. It is great to work on a project of high quality and have the opportunity to offer the best DIT and Video Assist solutions to some of the top film makers on the planet". After doing VT for 9 years Bruce has recently been working as a DIT as well. Bruce continues "I love DIT jobs, there are so many changes and so much growth in that part of the industry at the moment it is exciting to be involved in."
