The Z-Nail Gang – WEEK 2

Tanya Horo and Paul Ballard take a break from the picket line

One tired director tonight spending some much needed quality time with his son. Thanks to all of you over the first week, especially the mums & dads who been away from family for hours & days at a time to be part of this movie! Hugs to all the kids tonight

Yay for the catering team – we provided over 200 meals in week 1!
Great to be underway and we had a great week with some challenging locations (doing the dishes with the possums for company was a novel experience!).

Thanks so much to everyone that contributed this week including Subway Te Puke, Phoenix Drinks, New World and The Fresh Market, The Healthy Soy Adventure, Growell Nurseries and of course Maketu Pies.
Also a special thank you to Mr and Mrs Brann, the awesome local ukulele group (Highly Strung, as pictured), the Rural Woman’s group and many others (including Mary’s and Tracey’s friend’s) that provided salads, baking and on site assistance, we are really grateful for contributions to the success
of this project, roll on week 2!

Z-Nail Santa's do the Beatles and other antics – Tauranga late last night...

Shooting in Tauranga as we speak. Seen here Pai, part of
the Z-Nail Gang and best known as our 'wonder hugger', all round super support, gaffer & grip, hilarious actor, breakfast maker, garage cleaner, fab uncle & friend.

So stoked to have him round every day! x

No comment necessary really – huge thanks to Brent for a great week of being our first AD – been crack up!
