We’ve had the privilege of creating some incredible projects over the years for a wide range of viewing experiences; from socials to the Biennale. The bedrock of knowledge, connections and skills developed in-house has made for a mighty and robust shoot-to-edit workflow specialising in the aacquisition, chromakeying and rendering of 4K, 6K & 8K projects. From 2D background plates to camera tracked 3D world building.

Fills two floor-to-ceiling spaces in the Aotea Centre foyer, enthralling viewers with the story of Ranginui and Papatūānuku playing out on 65 square metre digital screens. This makes it one of the largest and most significant works of contemporary Māori art in Aotearoa New Zealand.

The work is also an excellent example of how critical greenscreen chromakeying can be, due to its scale and proximity to audience. Hair and mesh are some of the most difficult materials to key.
