MARK BROADBENT ACS IS A FREELANCE CINEMATOGRAPHER CURRENTLY BASED IN BRISBANE, AUSTRALIA AND AVAILABLE TO WORK WORLDWIDE

Mark’s passion for photography and cinematography all began when at the ripe old age of 7 he received his first camera - a blue Fisher Price 110 film camera. It was love at first sight and whilst his toys may have gotten more sophisticated over the years, Mark’s passion for photography hasn’t waned. Mark’s discovery of cinematography at 15 when he started studying Film and Television at high school set him onto the path he is on today; combining his loves for both photography and cinematography into a successful career.

His credits vary from feature and series documentaries, commercials, drama including two features as well as numerous music videos and brand films. His work has taken him all over Australia as well as international shoots in the UK, Ireland, USA, Samoa, South Korea, Malaysia, Thailand, PNG, Solomon Islands, Fiji, Tonga, Vanuatu, Iceland and Antarctica.

Along with traditional cinematography work Mark also specialises in underwater cinematography with a large range of housings and camera options.

Mark’s personable manner, down-to-earth approach and can-do attitude have enamoured him with cast and crew alike.
