Hi my name is Erin and i have a production

2
00:00:06.090 --> 00:00:07.960
company down in the south island of new

3
00:00:07.970 --> 00:00:10.200
zealand, here in wanaka and we're

4
00:00:10.270 --> 00:00:11.879
predominantly a documentary

5
00:00:12.250 --> 00:00:14.180
film production company but we also do

6
00:00:14.190 --> 00:00:15.940
marketing and other promotional content

7
00:00:16.050 --> 00:00:16.550
along the way.

8
00:00:21.610 --> 00:00:24.119
We decided to take on Henrik because he

9
00:00:24.130 --> 00:00:26.419
approached us and his approach was

10
00:00:26.430 --> 00:00:28.250
wonderful. He clearly explained the kind of

11
00:00:28.260 --> 00:00:30.280
placement he was looking for and told us

12
00:00:30.290 --> 00:00:33.000
about his background and his experience so far.

13
00:00:37.220 --> 00:00:38.310
He's been great!

14
00:00:38.940 --> 00:00:40.510
Even though he's an apprentice

15
00:00:40.980 --> 00:00:43.470
but his company in Germany - Pirate love - that

16
00:00:43.480 --> 00:00:45.129
he was working for obviously trained him

17
00:00:45.140 --> 00:00:48.310
really well he's been able to slot in

18
00:00:48.320 --> 00:00:50.430
nicely just like he's part of the part of

19
00:00:50.440 --> 00:00:52.790
the family part of our team. He's been

20
00:00:52.800 --> 00:00:55.250
able to go out on shoots and help us

21
00:00:55.600 --> 00:00:57.820
with editing and with planning. So all of

22
00:00:57.830 --> 00:00:59.269
the tasks that our team would normally look

23
00:00:59.280 --> 00:01:02.190
after he's been able to just walk in and

24
00:01:02.260 --> 00:01:04.009
get straight into it and has been really

25
00:01:04.019 --> 00:01:05.509
really valuable already for us.

26
00:01:10.270 --> 00:01:12.020
We hopefully can be quite supportive of

27
00:01:12.030 --> 00:01:15.760
Henrik here. He knows that he can come to us

28
00:01:15.770 --> 00:01:17.770
with anything he needs. In the weekends, you

29
00:01:17.780 --> 00:01:19.120
know, we're not just leaving him to his own

30
00:01:19.130 --> 00:01:22.000
devices and so he's come to barbecues with

31
00:01:22.010 --> 00:01:24.430
us and some of our team love hiking and

32
00:01:24.440 --> 00:01:27.160
they're all going to go out and explore the

33
00:01:27.170 --> 00:01:29.540
outdoors outside of work as well. So it's

34
00:01:29.550 --> 00:01:31.980
not just work. He's here to kind of learn

35
00:01:31.990 --> 00:01:34.339
about the new zealand culture and and what

36
00:01:34.350 --> 00:01:36.399
we do down here in in the south island.

37
00:01:41.060 --> 00:01:43.480
So yeah, we would love to do it again. It's

38
00:01:43.490 --> 00:01:44.970
been a really great experience. The whole

39
00:01:44.980 --> 00:01:47.150
process has been so nice and easy for us.

40
00:01:47.320 --> 00:01:49.289
And the cost benefit has obviously been

41
00:01:49.300 --> 00:01:51.110
great. We've been able to have someone slot

42
00:01:51.120 --> 00:01:53.530
into the team at very little cost to our

43
00:01:53.540 --> 00:01:56.390
company. It's just been really fantastic

44
00:01:56.400 --> 00:01:59.220
for our team to have someone with some

45
00:01:59.230 --> 00:02:01.030
international experience and a different

46
00:02:01.040 --> 00:02:01.950
perspective

47
00:02:02.440 --> 00:02:04.770
that they can learn from as well. And it's

48
00:02:04.780 --> 00:02:06.600
nice for us to be able to share our

49
00:02:06.610 --> 00:02:08.130
experiences with someone.
