Cody Jones S3E130

Filmmaker, colorist and digital image technician Cody Jones, who takes us behind the scenes of a memorable shoot with the late Pope Francis. Jones shares not just the craft and technicalities of color and image in movies, but the deeper human connections that power his creative work across the globe, and how meaning and purpose for him are rooted in gratitude, collaboration, and making people feel seen.

Cody Jones’s passion for filmmaking began in childhood with home videos and evolved through photography and cinematography into his current role as a Digital Imaging Technician and Colorist, blending technical skill and creative insight to film production. Whether as cinematographer, assistant camera, colorist or Digital Imaging Technician, Jones has worked on projects for major brands like Netflix, Hulu, and Spotify, and - as a member of Local 600 DIT - the International Cinematographers Guild - continues to focus on feature films, including Daft State, The Snack Shack, Going For Two, and The Headliner.

stuart chittenden

I'm Stuart Chittenden—an existential coach, Certified Humanist Professional, and the creator and host of Lives Radio Show & Podcast. My work centers on helping people explore who they are, what matters most, and how to live well in a world that often rushes past those questions.

Throughout my journey—from law in London to brand strategy and community dialogue in the American Midwest—I’ve always been drawn to what lies beneath: the quiet, often unspoken work of making meaning. Lives is one of the most enduring expressions of that calling. For over eight years, I’ve invited guests from all walks of life into deep, human conversations about identity, purpose, and how we shape—and are shaped by—our stories.

Whether through coaching, workshops, or the microphone, I create space for reflection, connection, and the rich conversations that help us live more fully.
