After a slow start, winter 2023 is well and truly on!
Our team get frothy when it's frosty and we're ready to get into the mountains to capture your winter content.
Always a pleasure working with Sam Neill. Here's a little promo we produced for his new memoir "Did I Ever Tell You This", out via The Text Publishing Co.
We just received our copy and it's a great read. Here's to Volume 2 Sam :)

Some of our recent work with Skytrek Tandem Hang Gliding & Paragliding. Josh was able to shoot as he flew through the air, just another day as a Storyworker!
Skytrek is where tandem hang gliding all began in New Zealand. The company pioneered the adventure sport here!
They are also the only providers of Tandem Hang gliding experiences in New Zealand.

Wait for the drop… would you do this? We’ve shot at AJ Hackett Bungy venues a few times now, and it never gets any less entertaining to film. This recent drone shoot for a popular Japanese TV show was no exception.
Inky black waters, rare marine wildlife and incredible waterfalls, it's no surprise this dramatic location is one of New Zealand's most popular destinations.
We had the pleasure of producing @puremilfordnz brand video here, be sure to check out the video on their website. Be warned though, you may end up booking a trip of a lifetime. 😆🐬🏔

Puppets
Throwback to a music video we produced for Kiwi artist Molly Devine's single "Puppets". Shot on location in Oamaru's Victorian Precinct and at Donna Demente's incredible Grainstore Gallery.
Checkout some of our new mountain gear from @goproanz and @djipro 🤩🎥 as we start prepping for our upcoming free ski film ‘Alta Cirque’.
With thanks to our film sponsors: @mountainsafetycouncil @altitudebrewing @taco_medic @gopro @smithoptics @blackcrows_skis @smallplanetsports @northfacecanada
Can they do it? 🤞
This winter, NZ free-ski legends Will Rowntree and Pete Oswald will attempt something that’s never been done before - ski all the lines in the Alta Cirque in just one day.
Over 4000 metres of uphill and ten full on 50 degree descents in just 12 hours. That's comparable to climbing mount cook in a day from sea level 🤯
Naturally, we’ll be making a film about the whole shebang (no pressure boys)! Be sure to follow our adventures on the dedicated Alta Cirque - The Film page.

Storyworks have partnered with Skyline Queenstown and Fluid to produce a series of films showcasing the local producers who supply Skyline's Stratosfare restaurant. The first episode features the fabulous, organic winemakers Domaine Thomson Wines. On the last day of their 2022 harvest (a fantastic one 😉), we captured the hard work, enthusiasm and TLC that goes into making this very special (and delicious) product.

When we were filming a year-long documentary on life at Walter Peak Station, an unseasonal snowstorm trapped 1000's of merino up in the hills before the annual muster. The shepherds had to tackle thigh deep snow and hypothermia to get the flock down to safety in the lower pastures, and we were right there with them, camera in hand, to capture the drama.
