Filming Re-enactments
We are currently writing screenplays for specific scenes, which are required to complete the short film.
We are constantly looking for actors and actresses to play both characters and extras for these re-enactment scenes.
The late Taawhi Kerehona plays rangatira (chief) Moka Te Kaingamata, in a re-enactment for Moka, Muskets & Mayhem! an interactive historical novel, written by Brent Kerehona.
Please check back here regularly to see whether we have an upcoming shoot, for details: i.e. dates, locations, scenes, characters, and extras, etc.
Scenes will be shot in New Zealand and Australia and possibly in England.
