The Filmmaker as Shooting Director, Christchurch

Posted Monday 28 Aug 2023

There are many reasons these days why a filmmaker may find themselves shooting their own footage – not least of which being logistics – think Dame Gaylene Preston at the United Nations, Steph Damm-Logan on Grand Designs or Survivor, or Vanessa Wells in the Antarctic, or so many of you out and about with your iPhones!

Come along to this workshop, with camera in hand, and join in with Dame Gaylene, Vanessa and Steph as they discuss the pros and cons of directing as the camera person with broadcast quality in mind. This is an interactive workshop. FUN and instructive!!! Clips will be screened!

NZ On Air - In Person (Christchurch)
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.
