Cancer Society - 'One in three, could be me'

One in three kiwis are affected by cancer in their lifetime - an incredibly sobering statistic. It was a privilege to assist the Cancer Society of New Zealand in spreading their message ahead of this coming Daffodil Day.
A massive thank you to our crew and wider community for their support in bringing this project to life.

The talented team at Qube Productions recently hit us up to help execute the NZ portion of their campaign for General Motors Special Vehicles, showcasing the new Chevy Silverado. This super fun project saw Mad Mike and his son Linc let loose in the volcanic green hills of Rotorua to put the Chevy to the test.

TP (Beards Director) ‘Yo W***y, wanna shoot for workwear tomorrow? I think the sun will come out.’

Will J ‘ Yeahhhh bro, All day, every dam day! I just gotta sneak in a cheeky 18 holes of golf prior to!’

That’s pretty much how it went down. Check out these campaign stills featuring the legend that is Will Jackways. He’s pretty sharp on the tools and even sharper at manu into the Clutha river.

Over the past few years, we have had the privilege of capturing a significant milestone in Scapegrace New Zealand Distilling Co.'s journey — the construction of their new headquarters and distillery in Central Otago.

It has been phenomenal to see this Kiwi company excel both locally and on the global stage and we're excited to now have them based here in our backyard.

The still images and video assets we have captured are being widely used across various digital platforms, including social media channels, websites, and PR outlets. A few sneaky images below.

We’re looking forward to more shooting (& whiskey) soon!

Harrows are one of New Zealand's leading furniture manufacturers, making waves in the commercial industry. We were tasked with shooting some new imagery as they rebrand their business with a new direction and growth aspirations.

Some imagery is starting to surface across their catalogues, website and social media channels. A few of our favourites below.

Never a dull day at The Beards!

We take great pleasure in the huge variety of businesses we get to work with across a range of sectors, creating content & campaigns covering many genres and durations.

In this instance the Tourism New Zealand business events team tasked us with capturing a case study video of the 28th Asian Seed Conference in ChCh, NZ. We witnessed around 1,100 people from more than 45 countries holding some 10,000 meetings with an estimated US$150m to $200m of new business generated from congress directly, and upwards of $1bn indirectly as a result of deals, leads and partnerships formed during congress week. We'll never look at a humble seed in the same light again!

A fascinating project to be a part of, and a pleasure to help share this story far and wide.

A big thank you to the Tourism New Zealand Business Events Team, Christchurch NZ and Te Pae for having us along.

Last year we were lucky enough to spend a day huddled in garage with a smorgasbord of amazing people representing the core of NZs freestyle ski / snowboard community. Safe to say the sports are looking healthy! Supported by one of NZs original outerware companies .
