Insight & Search Engine Marketing Ideas

I spent a couple of hours in a focus group with Dr Davinia Thornely, Senior lecturer, Department of Media, Film & Communication from Otago Univeristy, New Zealand, on Saturday We discussed landscape and identity as perceived by Kiwi’s living in Los Angeles as seen through New Zealand Films. A bright and clever group with fascinating insights. We discussed the many underlying currents and the mythological aspects that allow the production and dissemination of wisdom stories into the world. One of the compelling movies in my mind is Roger Donaldson, The World’s Fastest Indian (2005). He is an Australian-born New Zealand film producer, director and writer who has made numerous successful movies. He was a co-founder of the New Zealand Film Commission. I could not help but also mention the work of David Blyth’s Angel Mine (http://www.davidblyth.com/page.php?selected=angelmine2)  and his ongoing and fascinating articulation of the repressed shadow within culture, particularly New Zealand Culture.

It was a pleasure to meet fellow New Zealanders living in Los Angeles, Nick Divehall, A Global account manager for Autodesk, Craig Dawson who is focused on Xtreme Sports Insurance, Stephanie Paul a comic and actress and Angela Best from marketingtourguide.com
