Days of thunder meet Monster truck derby Nesian style


It's been a little while in the making, but we can now unveil to you our latest video. The concept came from songs concept of not wanting to come second in to win this girl. So with that in mind I approache Luke Sharp the director with a racing car enalogy and without needing to pitch he saw the concept. I was alittle nervous how we were going to pull this off with it easily being our ambitious work we're ever set out to achieve in front of the camera.


But with the relationship we had with Luke and the bond with the rest of the team there was a respected trust which can only come from seeing what quality he can really deliver. I mean if it was anyone else i was dealing with i wouldn't have had the kohuna's to dream of being able to achieve what the Bunker media team can deliver.


The next step in the process was Tarsh our stylist, this was beyond any other shoot we had ever done before because our clothes were really our only props.....everything else apart form a little box and the steering wheel were graphics. So it was so important that the gear was spot on. The look I requested for the bro's was a more leatherly look along the lines of a motor bike racer and Tarsh came with the idea's of different colours and characters. What she sourced was bloody amazing and she took the production on set to a whole new level. We had a bro who was on hand building stuff and altering the little box prop car we had.


It was important for me that we kept a simple storyline to accompany the race and commentators were a great idea Luke brought forward just adding to the whole drama and humour of the race atmosphere. Our good friends Nate & Jandals had been ribbing Donie for always saying he'd put him in a clip only for it never to happen, so when the commentator positions came up it was a no brainer. Their chemistry is a natural one and they were awesome as true to Nesian 101 principals we were running 3 hours behind schedule and they were so patient....true brofreshionals.


Obviously the post production and graphics were a massive part of the video and we had a great team that gave over and above of their talents to see this come to fruition. Our aim was to take Aotearoa video's to another level, as the financial crunch we felt had really affected what people were willing to try to achieve.
