Ziga Zupancic is an award-winning cinematographer with 11 Gold awards from the New Zealand Cinematographers Society and a nomination from the British Society of Cinematographers. His work has been recognised at leading international festivals, including Ciclope, Kinsale Shark Awards and AICP in New York.

In my view, there is a certain magic that happens when creative people come together to collaborate. Ideas bounce off one another, and the project takes on a life of its own. It's an exhilarating process to contribute your sensibilities with a team of talented individuals who share your passion and drive. The energy is infectious, and the result is often more than the sum of its parts. Collaborating with other creatives is where I feel at home and it’s a deeply rewarding and joyful experience.
