I worked as a producer for “Our Aotearoa”, which is an animated documentary series about the lives of immigrants. To ensure a smooth production process, I worked on dealing with internal/external conflicts and communication, structuring an efficient line of communication and workflow, and tracking the schedule. It was an absolute pleasure to work with these amazing people for a project that I deeply care about on a personal level.

Our Aotearoa is an animated documentary series that speaks to immigrants' personal experiences of living in Aotearoa. These episodes explore themes of racism, discrimination, loss, loneliness, and maintaining cultural ties while living in another country. We feel there is little multicultural representation in mainstream media in Aotearoa. This project's purpose is to help open a dialogue for a more diverse representation of Aotearoa – the one we know, Our Aotearoa.
