Christchurch

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!

RSVP to office@wiftnz.org.nz

WIFT NZ members FREE; Non-members $20, Students $10; includes wine and nibbles.

Date: Wednesday 13 Sep 2023
Location: Toi Auaha Rolleston House, 5 Worcester Boulevard, Christchurch Central City

Wift & Wine AUCKLAND

“A Toast to Creativity, Connection, Community and Cinema!”

Join us for a special edition of WIFT & Wine — an evening of relaxed networking, connection, and celebration before we head out to support wāhine-led films at DOC EDGE’s Auckland opening night!

We’ve shifted the timing slightly so you can enjoy a drink, some cheese (who doesn't love cheese), and great company with fellow WIFT members — then head out to one of two DOC EDGE WORLD PREMIERE screenings, both directed and produced by incredible wāhine storytellers.

A big ngā mihi to The Spinoff for hosting and helping bring us all together.
