I ended off the year working on two more promising Reality TV shows – Rumble and Hum, and High Alert in collaboration with New Vision Studios. The film explores how the mineral wealth, rightfully belonging to the people of South Africa, has been sold to capitalist interests for the enrichment of a few elite and at the expense of the country and how traditional communities have been divided in this process. The year also saw some controversial content come through the doors with Director Joseph Oesi’s Feature Documentary “ Black Lives Matter” that premiered at the 2016 Durban International Film Festival. The film is based on the true story about Phiona Mutesi, a Ugandan chess player, who worked herself up to greatness from humble beginnings. This film is visually beautiful with an authentic, heartfelt storyline. My involvement in the project was as a Dailies Colourist during the production phase in 2015. The African premiere of the film was hosted at Montecasino in Johannesburg North. In October, I was excited to welcome the release of Disney’s “ Queen of Katwe“. This was another great opportunity to work with quality footage as a Dailies Colourist using Blackmagic’s Da Vinci Resolve. In September, Netflix released another one of their original feature films, “ Siege of Jadotville” This film was shot in South Africa and my company, The Refinery, handled their dailies workflow. I also worked on a music video with Fresh2Def Productions for Da L.E.S.
A local crime-drama based on a female protagonist caught in a struggle between internal and external prisons. It was such a privilege to work with such a pleasant and humble cast and crew.īack at home, I worked on the grade for Zallywood’s first feature film “ Thembi“. Directed by Alex Kurtzman, it stars Hollywood heavy weights Tom Cruise and Russell Crowe. This Universal Pictures film, due to release in June 2017, is an action-adventure reboot for the Mummy franchise. The latter part of my year was highlighted by my involvement as a Dailies Colourist on-set for the African leg of “ The Mummy “ being filmed in Swakopmund, Namibia.
Whether it’s treating animals for injuries, tracking rhino poachers, conserving the park’s pristine habitat, treating guests to once-in-a-lifetime animal encounters or operating vital local outreach programmes – this is the story of the daily lives of the staff that keep this vast park running, discovering the tremendous effort it takes to make the Kruger the park it is today.
This show is the brain child of New Vision Studios founders Graeme Swanepoel and Damien Brown.

Hot off the reality production chain, I moved onto a wildlife series called “ Keeping Up with the Kruger“. This was the second time that I was privileged to work with Jane since “ Celebrity MasterChef South Africa” and “ Feast” back in 2014/2015. The tight turn-around and momentous process of stitching story to order would not have been possible without the calm, motherly, and experienced direction of Jane Kennedy. With the support of my talented co-workers at The Refinery, we worked with Gary King from Picture Tree and Stephan Le Roux from Eject Media to produce this unique and voyeuristically hilarious show for a weekly broadcast on the Sony Channel on DStv. My first big project of the year was “ GoggleBox South Africa” – an international Reality TV format based on the award-winning UK show. Personally, I had the opportunity to work on many great Films and Television Shows as well as a steady stream of TV Commercials and the occasional Agency / Corporate AV. 2016 was another great year for the Film and Television industry in South Africa with increasing international productions entering our shores and collaborating with local talent on co-productions.
