Making It Work: Camera Up-Skilling with Tammy Williams (Wellington)

Making It Work: Camera Up-Skilling with Tammy Williams (Wellington)

Posted Tuesday 24 Mar 2026

This event is BACK after a successful run in Christchurch, we are now bringing it to Wellington!

How do you create great visual work when resources are tight and you're working in a smaller market?

Join us for a practical workshop with Tammy Williams that explores the collaborative process between camera operators, directors, and producers. We'll dig into the real questions: What gear is essential (and what can wait)? How do camera operators and directors work together to achieve a shared vision? How do you balance creative ambition with budget realities?

This session covers both the technical and creative sides, from building camera skills and confidence to negotiating visual storytelling decisions and finding pathways to experience. Whether you're a camera operator, director, producer, or wearing multiple hats, this is about understanding how to work together effectively to create compelling content.

We will be using current industry standard camera gear thanks to Portsmouth.

Drinks and nibbles will be provided.
Free to WIFT members and $20 for non-members.

NZ On Air - In Person (Christchurch)

NZ ON AIR – in person!

Join us in Christchurch for an informative session with Kelly Davis, Associate Head of Funding at NZ On Air. Moderated by WIFT Executive Director, Patricia Watson, we will explore the current funding strategy following on from NZ On Air ‘s newly published direction for the next four years, in their Statement of Intent, and the plans for the coming financial year.

We will delve into details too e.g. Identifying your audience – do you know who will want to watch your programme? What are some of the common funding application downfalls? Where are the opportunities? What is Te Pae Matarau, The Everyone Project Aotearoa, and how will it serve the wider screen sector?

Mostly, it's time in the room with one of our main funders. It's a chance to ask the questions a form never lets you ask.
Come along to connect, have a wine, and be informed.
