A scene sampler I worked on with a class of other student producers in order to understand the process of pitching for funding for films in New Zealand

This is the first project I produced as part of my second year short film paper, producing was something very new to me but something i very much enjoyed, despite the experience being a bit traumatic and chaotic as is the way with working on student films, I definitely gained a lot of experience and a lot of experience in roles I hadn't attempted yet

My first short film I worked on as part of my Batchelor of Creative Media Production, whilst I was not in a super important role, I learned a lot by being there for other members of the team whenever they needed it and overall was happy with my contribution and overall outcome of this film

This was my most successful film I made when I was still in high school, looking back now it's far from the greatest thing i've ever made but after having won the X-Factor award at the briefs student film festival i'm proud enough to present it as an example of my work
