This Side Up

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No! It’s a… pink horse? We’ve filmed a lot of things over the years, including horses, but this latest shoot for This Side Up has to be the strangest and one of the most fun we have done. See the results below.

Tech Tips

For our latest shoot we donned our gumboots, threw on our rain jackets and headed to the countryside. We were filming some Tech Tips for PGG Wrightson. The wind decided to have fun with us and blow really hard every time we pushed record but we got the last laugh by using our secret tricks. … Read more

We recently filmed some promotional videos for European Car Imports. They are a great company with wonderful people behind it.

Te Papa Eco Cottage

We had a great time filming the latest episode for Thinking forward. We were in Waiuku, South Auckland on a Dairy Farm where the owners have built a beautiful eco cottage. The family who runs it have been on the same land for generations and have a keen eye on the environment and the future.
The views from the eco cottage are absolutely stunning. It seems like the perfect place to get away from it all.
Sometimes the filming was rather adventurous, as can be seen in the video below. (Taken on Kerrin’s phone)
