Listen "Behind the Scenes in Bangkok, Thailand with TV & Film Producer, South-Londoner, Zoe Popham [Ep 17]"
Episode Synopsis
Equipped with a law degree, an internship from the BBC White City in TV script writing and film production, plus certification as an ESL teacher, and still only in her 20s, Zoe Popham headed for Thailand for adventure, and to teach English. Serendipitously, she knew an English guy working in Bangkok on a film and he invited her to work with him. The realization that there was international production work in Thailand, led to a job opportunity with an Indian-Thai production company that made TV commercials for India. Over the next 18 years, Zoe worked her way up in the industry, but after a nearly 2-decade career in Asian TV commercial, news and feature film production and post-production, in 2015 she relocated to Portugal in search of a more balanced and healthy lifestyle for herself, and her young son.
