Auckland, NEW ZEALAND – 29 July 2026: Canon Oceania has launched A Different Lens, a new podcast celebrating the people and stories shaping New Zealand and Australia’s photography and filmmaking community. Designed to inspire creators at every stage of their careers, the series explores the creative process, career-defining moments and evolving craft of some of the country's leading visual storytellers. Available now on YouTube, Spotify and Apple Podcasts, the podcast premieres with fitness, automotive and lifestyle filmmaker and photographer Josh Hilliam.
Hosted by Canon Ambassadors Wil Calabio, a Sydney-based content creator and photographer who has built a strong community through his travel and commercial storytelling, and Kate Cornish, an award-winning cinematographer whose credits include Netflix's Heartbreak High and ABC's Optics, the series brings together two distinct perspectives on modern visual storytelling.
Through candid conversations with photographers, filmmakers and digital creators across disciplines including cinematography, filmmaking, content creation, photography and commercial production, Wil and Kate explore the creative decisions, challenges and defining moments that shape careers behind the lens.
As the creator economy continues to evolve, aspiring photographers and filmmakers have more opportunities than ever to share their work, but building a sustainable creative career can be challenging. A Different Lens creates space for deeper conversations about creativity, careers and craft, offering practical insights, career advice and honest reflections to help the next generation navigate the industry.
Aaron Berthelot, Senior General Manager – Consumer Sales & Marketing, Canon Oceania said, "At Canon, we've always believed that powerful stories begin with people who are driven to create something meaningful. Every creator starts with an idea, but turning that idea into something more takes determination, curiosity and a willingness to keep learning. Filmed and produced in the podcast and vodcast studio at the Canon Experience Centre in Sydney, a collaborative space designed to empower creators, A Different Lens celebrates that journey through the stories of the people behind the lens. The series shares the honest lessons and experiences behind successful creative careers to inspire the next generation to pursue their own ambitions with confidence.”
The first episode of A Different Lens, featuring Josh Hilliam, is available now on YouTube, Spotify and Apple Podcasts, with new episodes released fortnightly from 9am (NZST) on Wednesdays.
