Bachelor of Creative Media Production

Our Aotearoa was an absolute pleasure to work on. With such a solid team of talented creatives, it’s hard to go wrong!
In my role as lead Editor/Co-Colorist, I was mainly responsible for cutting and piecing together the stories for each episode and the final product combining visuals and audio together with a color grade. I also edited videos for our Boosted marketing campaign and behind-the-scenes footage.
Overall this project was a huge learning experience for me. From the hard skills of learning new techniques in hardware to storytelling and the stories themselves. I myself made a continuous effort to become more aware of this topic and this issue in our society.

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.
