NEW WORK 🎥

Vahry Insurance is a nationwide life and health insurance advisory company. They wanted an emotive, cinematic and thought-provoking piece of commercial content to use across social media platforms.

Starring Managing Director Julia Vahry and her daughter, we created a 30-second spot which tugs on the heart strings and encourages people to protect what they love.

🎥 WHAT GEAR DO WE USE? 🎥

Behind every shoot with 2113 is a carefully considered process of gear selection. Depending on the budget, scope and creative - we will select the best gear for the job.

For this branding shoot with Matrix Security, we wanted a nimble camera package (we shot a range of outputs across numerous locations in 2 days) that could also give us a slick, cinematic and elevated look.

We used our Canon C-70 camera paired with the Lomo Illuminas MKII lenses to remain light on our feet, but still pack a visual punch.

Lens selection plays a huge part in defining your overall aesthetic. Whether you choose prime or zoom, anamorphic or spherical, we think it’s crucial to ensure you make these choices with purpose.

We chose the Lomo Illuminas for their fast T-stop, creating shallow depth of field, beautiful vintage characteristics and a striking halo lens flare. The best creatives will understand these technical aspects and find the right tools to tell your story.

While you can shoot content with cheaper, DSLR or iPhone cameras - using cinema quality gear elevates your brand and marketing to the next level.

CLIENT SPOTLIGHT 🎥

Last year, Auckland Theatre Company launched the Youth Company: an exciting programme of events and initiatives designed for the next generation of theatre-makers.

They wanted a fresh, dynamic video to capture the spirit of this diverse group learning theatre craft, and communicate the importance and vitality of these arts programmes.

We created a brand story video and 15 film images for use across fundraising events and social media.

“What I love most is 2113 are artists at their core. They understand collaboration, have a short hand when working through a creative process, and it’s all underpinned by incredible technical knowledge. 2113 understand, interpret and realised our ideas, and are our go-to creators whenever we need content that is beautiful and heart.” — Samuel Phillips, Participation Coordinator

Great to have our project featured in Waikato Times this morning 🎥🎥🎥

A psychological thriller shot in one of the most isolated parts of the Waikato will soon be on its way to the international film festival circuit.

We're incredibly excited to share the first look at THE WOMAN IN THE HOUSE BY THE SEA.

Today we're launching a fundraising campaign to help us finish the film. It's a psychological thriller following ALICE (Sheena Irving) and her dog MOSS as they hunt a mysterious, threatening presence on the wild west coast.

We shot over three days in September on a remote part of the west coast that's never been filmed before - and we're so, so proud of what we have made.

We know it's a very difficult time for a lot of people at the moment. Any donation, big or small - is greatly appreciated. But if you're not in a position to donate, we'd love it if you would consider sharing our post.

And a huge thank to our amazing seed donors who have already donated - Mia Blake, Hannah Adams, Hannah Marks, Mike Minogue, Kate McGill, Morgan Leigh Stewart, Anna Duckworth, Asuka Sylvie, Bala Murali Shingade, Kyan Krumdieck, Angela Cudd, Jaimee Poipoi and Stephen Kang (plus a few wonderful anonymous donors) - THANK YOU!

Head to the link to read more about the project, and please donate and help us.

Let's make a movie!
