Episode Synopsis

Karl and I sat down and spoke about some of his experiences in travel and what it took for him to start his travel channel, 'Karl Watson-Travel Documentaries.' We spoke about some of his early days and where his love for travel started. The conversation then led to us talking about filming documentaries and where that all started. He has gone on to make some wonderful feature-length films, usually as a one-man band, occasionally with the help of others. He spoke to me about a few key points when starting and what the content should consist of. He mentioned if there is no relevance to what the audience wants, then they will switch off. Consistency throughout the film is important, from what I gathered, which isn't an easy feat when filming a travel documentary. We also spoke about some of his travel experiences, and in particular, we spoke about travelling for the reason of wanting it and not necessarily doing it to tick a box or tick a country off a bucket list. I also spoke to Karl about the effects of travelling on his relationships. It was a brilliant talk, and I loved every bit of our chat. Karl came across as a down-to-earth, no-nonsense type of guy. His channel is so successful as there is a clear mindset on what he wants, which is vital.I look forward to more of his new work soon.You can also watch the episode on my YouTube channel (https://youtu.be/VPLJHcRq0r4).
