SUMMARY:Dean Hewison and Matty Warmington - Video with your SLR
DESCRIPTION:Did you know that today it is not uncommon for feature length films to be shot on DSLR/Mirrorless cameras? Is your video feature on your camera one of those features that you have never quite got around to mastering? \nThings may well be different for you after hearing our two guest speakers on 12 September. \nWe are fortunate to have two talented Wellington-based cinematographers in Dean Hewison and Matty Warmington talking about their work and how you can take the first steps along the way to unlocking your skills as a videographer. \nDean is a writer and director for film\, theatre\, television and web. He was written and directed several plays\, many of which have won awards in various festivals and competitions\, including media satire “Live at Six”\, advertising love-letter “Jingles – The Musical” and the comedic two-hander “Conversations With My Penis”. \nDean has written and directed a multitude of short films over the years\, and is a veteran of the 48HOURS short film competition\, having directed and co-written 13 short films since 2004. His team Traces of Nut were the 2013 National Champions with “The Sleeping Plot”\, with Dean winning the national award for Best Director. His 2018 duo entry (with Richard Falkner) “Master” won the Wellington Final\, and won national awards for Best Editing\, Best Script\, and Best Ultra Film. His other film writing and directing includes the feature length comedy “How to Meet Girls From a Distance”\, which was nominated for six New Zealand Film Awards including Best Director and Best Screenplay\, and winner of the Grand Prix du Jury at the Festival de Antipodes in France. Dean’s short “Judgment Tavern” was selected by Lee Tamahori for NZ’s Best in the NZIFF 2016\, and in the same year he directed the 45 minute comedy special “On the Conditions and Possibilities of Hilary Clinton Taking Me as Her Young Lover”. \nDean is also a freelance television director\, having recently directed two episodes of the New Zealand comedy hit “Wellington Paranormal”. Dean currently has three comedic feature films in development: “Tough Crowd”\, “Big Business”\, and “Everyone Dies” – the feature length expansion of his short film “Judgment Tavern”. \nMatty has over twenty years experience in producing\, directing and shooting all over New Zealand and the world. He runs Kaboose Media – a Wellington based production company that produces high quality corporate and promotional videos. He has a strong background in documentary and an artistic flair for motion graphics and animation. \nAs a cinematographer\, Matty has worked with Dean on multiple films\, commercials\, and web series\, including the 48HOURS National Champion “The Sleeping Plot”\, children’s nature web series “Wild Eyes”\, and the feature film “How to Meet Girls From a Distance”. \nDoors open at 7:00pm\, meeting starts at 7:30pm.

SUMMARY:Sean Gillespie: Documentating Wellington's Suburbs
DESCRIPTION:Sean is a Wellington based freelance writer\, photojournalist and videographer. His LinkedIn profile suggests an extremely wide range of roles\, including working in the New Zealand parliament and US Department of State. \nHe is a keen Wellingtonian who is not bothered by the slight breezes we have down here. In fact he has headed out into cyclones to record the city in action\, with the images appearing on the Spinoff website (https://thespinoff.co.nz/author/sean-gillespie/). \nIn 2014 he decided he would explore the suburbs of Wellington to see if he could capture images that reflected what was unique about them. When he started he did not realPhotoerise that he would find that there were 57 separate suburbs! \nBy using references to this project Sean is going to demonstrate that you don’t need to venture to overseas locations to create a body of work.
