    Hi Terrance

    New Zealand has a lot to offer in the way of Islands, Rolling Hills and Epic Landscapes. Joyride Films offers a dependable service that caters for diverse media capture requirements. We have a wealth of experience with aerial filming and in fact have an aerial mountain unit up filming today with two helicopter crews. If we can help provide any location reference and budgeting to assist your pitch please just drop me a line with your brief. Would love to be of assistance to you.

    Best of luck for your shoot in NZ!

    Kia Ora Tanya (Kiwi greetings!)

    We can help you on both fronts.

    It’s the perfect time to be filming snow in New Zealand and we have much experience in that area. You can see a bunch of this work on our website. Last year we filmed a rugby game in the snow which was fun. You can see this work and a bunch of other spots on our website. Also we are associated with some talented directors who have handled sport spots before.

    Please let me know if I can help with any reels, location reference and budgets? Be most happy to help.

    Warmest Regards,

    This is Anzak from Joyride Films here – how are you?

    Yes if you want winter locations it is actually a better time of year to be considering the Southern Hemisphere. The ski fields open in New Zealand this month so it is all about to happen!

    We have a lot of experience shooting in winter/snow environments here in New Zealand and you can see a bunch of this on our website. Last year we shot a snow shoot with an Indian company and we have worked with several more.

    NZ has so many great locations close together so it can be very rewarding if you are trying to cover a number of different settings without excessive cost. I can provide extensive location references if you are interested…

    Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance. Would love to have you down here with us!

    Warmest Regards – Anzak

    Hi Laura

    Here are a few ideas from New Zealand that I felt were relevant to your reference. We have hundreds more on file so let me know if you wish to look further.

    We are just arriving in our Summer season so it is a wonderful time to consider NZ.

    Hi Kasia

    Hops season is not far away. We have shot hops as early as January in the past. Earlier this year we transported a bunch of hop cones overnight to another location so are familiar with moving them.

    Here you can see some examples of local hop plants from previous shoots.

    Let me know if we can help further.

    Best of luck!

    Kia Ora Alex!

    Yes indeed. A great time to be thinking of shooting Wheat in NZ, or Barley and other grain crops for that matter.

    Would you like mountains, rolling hills or flat ground with that?

    Get in touch if we can help. We have shot crops twice already this year.

    Hi Antoine

    We are so mad on rugby here in New Zealand that we can put a game together just about anywhere you can think of in any kind of landscape. There are some amazing little fields in far flung parts of the country where some of the legendary Allblacks are born. Let us know is we can help on anything.

    Best Regards – Anzak (anzak@joyridefilms.com)

    Dear Miki

    New Zealand also services the Pacific Islands including Tahiti, and is more economical than getting crew and equipment from USA or Australia. Have personally spent some good time in Moorea and Bora Bora. Let us know if we can help with anything.
