Long Term Collaborators

Toi Whakaari
I've made many films with Toi Whakaai, and each year I work with the students creating Mise en Scene - where we reconstruct feature films. This allows the students to gain experience with professional video production, and what to expect on set.
I've helped these guys create spectacular productions in the weirdest of places! I've made music for them, taught singing, I've even made instruments for them. You will hear, see and experience things from this company that you'll never experienceanywhere else.

This production company was started by the uber-talented creature sculptor, director and writer Bill Hunt and the lovely Sherryn Matthews. I have a close working relationship with them and have co-written three feature films with Bill.
