    paper 'Change is possible' documentary series

    Over a 18-month period, I directed and produced this documentary series for the Ministry of Social Development in NZ. We filmed all around Aotearoa to capture stories with men who had struggled with being abusers throughout different periods of their lives - they each shared their stories and journeys of their struggles, when they realised they needed to change, how they got help and how they rehabilitated.

    I produced for this series over the period of 18 months, looking after all the communication between client, talent and crew. Booking and organising all shoot dates, travel and call sheets.
    I also directed all of the shoots, with a small crew of 5.

    We were absolutely stoked with the outcome, and so was our client.
