NZTECHO #90 Update

Hi all,

And welcome to your NZTECHO #90. It would be

nice to be marking that number with some sort of

celebration of how well we are all doing and how bright

the future is looking.

But with Auckland – meaning the majority of our

industry and membership – still locked down as this

issue gets produced, I guess there's not too many reasons

to cheer about.

Still, the show must go on, and while we wait for the

industry to get its equilibrium back, we do at least have a

nicely packed magazine for you.

After the great reception to the ACC piece on

concussions in the last issue, we have asked our friend

Peter Thornton to contribute another piece. We really

like what he has sent us. We reckon you will too.

I also asked Wellington music critic and writer Simon

Sweetman to send us a few words on a subject very close

to his heart; New Zealand film soundtracks and the

people who make and compile them. It's a fascinating

read from someone who really knows his stuff.

We're also glad to have a piece from Adrian Hebron –

the beloved Wookie – on testing and tagging and the

importance of getting it right.

As well as our usual very welcome and well considered

regional wrap-ups from Auckland, Bay of Plenty,

Christchurch, Dunedin and Wellington. And the

legendary Marg Slater is our newbie of the issue!

So enjoy this, stay safe, please get your shots.

And we will see you all back on set, hopefully, very soon.

Graeme and Jason.
