The good folk over at Stuff are featuring my short film ‘Winter 2012‘ to greet the first official day of winter for us kiwis. The film was splashed across the home page this morning until news of some revolutionary space venture came through! Aha! Anywho, ave a looky over here - http://www.stuff.co.nz/entertainment/film/7026350/Welcoming-in-winter-with-film

As winter approached this year I found myself hanging out with my camera in the fog that shrouds the Clutha & Hawea rivers. The scenes that the fog and frost create are incredibly eery & beautiful. They inspired me to shoot this spooky, weird and quirky short film. It’s a visual narrative following a mysterious lass throughout the vast landscapes, with a few props thrown in for extra weirdness. Big thanks to JoJo Ross for being talent and wardrobe, and Andy Bamford for the colour grade and FX. Behind the scenes photos & tech info will follow soon.

I have a large variety of clients that demand quick turn around videos to be used online, in stores and at tradeshows. These videos are a little different being the first clips I have done in a foreign language for french olive oil company Dumaine Dubois Gentil. Nothing fancy, but achieved on a tight budget, in a tight time frame. I have absolutely no idea what Marc is saying but he delivers well. I edited the clips with the Marketing Manager from the company.

Although Marc owns a 3 Michelin star Restaurant in France, these two meals were cooked on zee kiwi barrrbeee!

The latest issue of NZ Skier Magazine has hit the shelves with Winter of Wells The Doco DVD strapped to the front. For $12NZD you can get your self not only two magazines jam packed with content, but a feature 52min doco. Beauty! WOW the doc has been ticking away with great sales on itunes, and is currently screening on television in several countries around the world. Hopefully it makes it to NZ TV stations this winter.

This stop-motion short shows ya’ll how I use one of my favourite camera bags – The F-stop Bandon. This hip little number is perfect for stuffing a DSLR and a couple of lenses into when you’re on the run and traveling light. Whether you’re strolling the big city streets shooting photos and video, or heading away for a quick over night trip, it fits the bill. In this film I show unloading my gear from my F-Stop Satori, jumping in the car and heading down to one of my favourite spots on the Clutha River. I really dig this bag, it’ll always have a home with me. Find out more here – fstopgear.com/en/millar/bandon
