Sun rays and s***k by for the thirst quenchers

Seducing the holiday vibes and long lazy sun filled days to come with this cheeky little shoot.

Here we go!

Wrapping up the year with some super meaningful work. Photographer brings sensitivity and artistry that blends perfectly with heartfelt brief for ‘Nuture The Future Within’. What a buzz it was crafting with this talented team!

‘Contributing to something that matters not just artistically but socially brings a sense of meaning that stays with you long after the work is done. This project felt like a chance to connect my art to something bigger, and for that, I feel truly grateful’ - says Katya.

This campaign calls on all of us to nurture the future within, to recognise our role as future ancestors, and to keep pregnancy alcohol-free. This is about looking after our next generations, now.

Katya’s and Dahnu’s partnership between photography and film resulted in a visual unity and purpose, aligned to Curative’s powerful messaging.

This campaign is a conversation starter, and now the real Mahi can begin.

A soggy crew braving the elements with as much durability as the new Find X8 Pro.

Behind the scenes, the shoot was a testament to trust. “I held my breath every single time the phone left an actor’s hand—part terror, part exhilaration,” says . It went against the grain for the actors to throw the phone in the air - trusting that the props team would catch it. Each catch required multiple takes and a level of coordination. “To be honest, there were a few spills, but the phone survived them all without a scratch.”

saddled up and hit the road for and .commonground with the new OPPO Find X8 Pro and its epic built-in lenses. The brief was to capture a natural landscape, portrait, urban landscape and an open concept. And the breif was also to show how mighty this phone camera is, job well done Soph! 🤎🤠🤎

Slides 1-4 were exhibited at the OPPO Find X8 Pro launch, slides 3-7 are a few extra snippets gathered along the way.

Last week’s BELONGING Exhibition was epic, 🙏 to everyone who came along and filled with warmth and good heart. It was so cool to be reminded that we’re a community, regardless of the competitive nature, and the high’s and lows. We’re all basically pretty amazing human’s who care about our craft and the people we make stuff with. And this exhibition was all about belonging, and in some magical way, the vibe in the room amplified that completely.

So here’s to the work, the exhibition that explored and then embodied Belonging. And here’s to our team of talented image makers.

Producers of Epic Filmy Stuff...

Two young men, armed with a singular vision and a hand-levered La Pavoni espresso machine, decided to take over a basement office beside a student pub in Auckland. The year was 1996, and they knew this much – they were passionate about filmmaking, and partial to a good coffee.

Since then, Film Construction has grown beyond the bounds of a basement and into one of Australasia’s most creative and awarded film production companies with offices in Auckland, Sydney, Queenstown and Singapore.

And while Film Construction has always been passionate about filmmaking, we’ve never been more excited about things than we are today. With the explosive evolution of technology, we can now shoot in many formats and for many different screens. We work all over the world with our mantra still being “do great work and that speaks for itself”.

Our coffee machine is still at the centre of the office. So of course, drop in for a brew and tell us your story.
