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.
