TreeTop Productions
Initially established to support ThePlops - a popular nationwide musical children's entertainment show that aired on television and toured New Zealand for nine years - TreeTop Productions brought high-energy performances to council celebrations (such as Christmas in the Park), zoos, teddy bear picnics, kindergartens, and self-promoted live tours.
We also offered private party appearances, bringing the beloved characters directly to local birthday celebrations. Building on this live-entertainment foundation, TreeTop Productions produced ThePlops’ award-winning music videos before successfully expanding into broader film and media production.
Producer | Director | Production Manager
Nominated for APRA Best New Zealand Children's Music Video and APRA Song of the Year.
Garnering 6 million views on YouTube and a nationwide television broadcast, I independently spearheaded the entire project from conception to completion - serving as Producer, Production Manager, and Director, leading a compact crew of three and a cast of 4 adults and about 30 children.
Lets Go
Amazing
Producer | Director
A multi-camera production utilizing a 3-camera setup. Winner of the WhatNow and APRA Children's Music Video Awards, and nominated for APRA Best New Zealand Children's Song, with 127k views on YouTube.
I led the project from conception to completion - overseeing casting, producing, and directing. Leading a crew of approximately 30, my department heads included a 10-person art department, a digital VFX artist, and a compositor. (Key takeaway: Never color the eyebrows!)
