Congratulations to all the WIFT NZ members involved in the successful roll out of TVNZ+! Designed in-house by the award-winning Blacksand, Product and UX teams, TVNZ+ replaces TVNZ On Demand. Publicity material said the platform aims to "firmly cement [it's] position as a comprehensive streaming destination and much more than the catch-up TV service first launched 15 years ago".
The rebrand is part of a multi-year digital transformation as TVNZ focuses on redesigning itself for a digital future.
A host of exciting content is rolling out this month too, with a new movie catalogue of over 300 titles and a bunch of new TV series, including much-anticipated international titles Everything I Know About Love, The Responder and Queer As Folk; and new local Good Grief s2, stand-up specials Laughs Unleashed, TVNZ and TikTok Present: Purapura Whetū - Stars of Matariki (a live event in collaboration with TikTok) and The Social Media Virgin.
The service now reaches one million viewers each week - way to go TVNZ!
