Documentary making is our passion. Be it a personal ambition or part of someone
else's desire to tell the world their story - we will listen, shoot and give it
all the attention it deserves. Bruce Nixon |
Nixon Pictures was established in 2001. Over the years we have supported both the
business sector and the television industry. However, to meet the demands of a
growing number of producers who want to shoot documentaries in New Zealand, neighbouring
countries and internationally, we now specialise in this field - documentary-making.
We are based in Auckland and have a wide network of crews and
interpreters on call. We also take the mystery and confusion out of filming in
a foreign English country for those wanting shoot 'down-under'. When you’re a stranger
in a strange land it makes life so much easier to be with someone who is
fully conversant with the local scene. |

Fly-fishing is probably the most enjoyable past-time I can think of. New Zealand
offers some of the best Trout fishing in the world and it's not hard to slip out
of the city and into a back-country river with not a soul in sight. My favourite
river would have to be the Ruakituri situated on the eastern edge of the Urewera
National Park, Eastland. This river is rare in New Zealand as it's now promoted
as a 'trophy' river where you have to release the big fish - not the little
ones! |
Going fast in any sort of aircraft... whether it's high, low, upside down or vertical,
I love it! While I have never considered obtaining my pilot license, I'll
still grab the chance to take the controls if offered. The golden era of the
RNZAF is long over now, but I was very fortunate to have spent it flying in Strikemasters
and Skyhawks, while friends with private pilot licenses weren't far
away either. I've even been known to have jumped out of a few... on purpose. |
