Winery Video Production Gisborne

In Gisborne

Gisborne is one of New Zealand’s main wine-growing areas and is especially known for chardonnay. Its clear East Coast light suits early morning vineyard shoots.

Gisborne is among the first cities in the world to see the sun each day, with surf beaches, vineyards and a strong Māori community across Te Tairāwhiti.

Billie travels to Gisborne for productions, bringing the full team or working with local crew depending on the job.

What it’s for

A winery sells a place as much as a bottle, so its content leans on the land, the season and the people who make the wine.

Cellar doors need imagery for bookings and tastings, trade and export buyers want a clear story about the site and the winemaking, and weddings and events at the vineyard need their own promotion. The vintage, the vines through the seasons and the winemaker at work give a year of material that only comes round once a year.

What gets made

Vineyard and harvest films
Winemaker profile and brand story
Cellar door and tasting room imagery
Bottle and label photography
Trade and export presentation video
Wedding and event venue promotion

On the shoot

Light across the rows

Vineyards look best in low morning and evening light, so outdoor work is scheduled around sunrise and the last hours of the day, with the winery and cellar door filmed in the middle of the day.

Alcohol advertising rules

Wine advertising in New Zealand is covered by the Advertising Standards Authority’s alcohol advertising code, so casting, scenes and captions are planned with it in mind from the start.

Which retainer suits

Essential at $1,500 NZD a month suits a cellar door that needs a regular flow of short-form content and a few finished pieces. Creative at $3,000 NZD a month suits a winery covering harvest, releases, a restaurant or events across the year, and Studio Partner, on enquiry, suits a larger wine brand with trade and export audiences. A single brand film is quoted as Bespoke Production, and weddings or launches at the vineyard can be produced by Billie Private, quoted per project.
