We’ve got a new home.
Well, new name — but it finally feels like a proper home now.

A new website, a refined brand identity, and a platform to showcase the projects, people, and clients we know and love.
Same hard-working crews getting it done, now with a more cultivated strategy.

To all of those (too many great hard working humans to name!) who have helped with our journey, THANK YOU!

One of the best parts of film production is collaboration (aka making cool stuff look even cooler than you thought cool could look), and we’ve had some absolute doozies over the years.

Every one of them has been a team effort, and every one has taught us something - it truly means a lot.

Since 2008, we’ve evolved our services to build out tailor-made campaigns and productions that connect creativity and logistics seamlessly.

We are still working just as tirelessly to get great results — just without hideously long email addresses.

So, everything .nz now lives under one roof at www.diaries.nz (link in bio).

[email protected] instead of [email protected]

Feels pretty good.

Recent brand piece for .

When the brief for this one came through it seemed to good to be true. Long story short - The script was already written..we just needed somebody exactly like Sue.

“I remember Katie going up the poma over at Rocky Gully and now of course she’s a better skier than me.
She’s doing the same with Clara and the baton will be passed on no doubt when Clara is Katie’s age.”

Featuring the talent of Sue Knowles, and Clara Obermoser.

Very happy to finally share this piece about passion, family and passing on the baton.

More behind the scenes on Linked In but for now do nothing except let the video play until the end..oh, and turn the sound on.
