We've had many incredible times with some amazing people in the most stunning places in the world. Here's what a few of them had to say...

Kyle Pusateri. Senior Producer. Garmin

‘Cam and the ReelNZ crew took great care of us and made everyone feel right at home in and around Queenstown for the Garmin Enduro 3 production in April 2024. Cam's deep knowledge of many great shooting locations around Queenstown, as well as his connections to streamline the permitting process, were crucial in making a smooth production happen on relatively short notice. He was able to assemble a great local crew of hardworking, professional and talented individuals.
Cam hasn't met a challenge he couldn't conquer, and that mentality made us feel safe and that we were in good hands throughout the shoot. The awesome images and videos are proof for how seamlessly the production ran. We recommend ReelNZ to any brand or agency seeking to capture New Zealand's magnificent beauty.’

Mark Hoffman. Director

‘We brought a large, complicated production halfway across the globe and put all our trust in Cam to find the right set-up and locations for an ambitious three day shoot. He delivered above and beyond on everything we asked for, our shoot went incredibly smooth and on time, and in the process I made a great friend. Cam had an excellent eye for the locations we were looking for, both expected and out-of-the box solutions. His understanding of creative and production logistics made him an invaluable asset to our production as we planned for our shoot and during the shoot as well. Cam was professional, collaborative, and a joy to work with, and having grown up in the Queenstown area he had an intimate connection to the local crew and natural beauty. I highly recommend Cam for any film project and hope to get the chance to work with him again.’

'Cam scouted a multi day TVC for us recently. Cam really understood the size and kind of approach that was required for our job - and was really great at offering up a selection of the right kind of locations to our director. He was efficient, communicative and responsive - with a great dropbox presentation and good back up in terms of maps and budget indications. I had no hesitation at sending our director down to scout with him directly, and overall found him really good to deal with.'

'There are many different things that I appreciate about Cameron and his location scouting. I think the first thing, because it’s the coolest, is that his location scouting comes with a location overview shot from his drone. There's nothing better than getting a bird's eye view of the location. more importantly, he has incredible scouting skills. Cameron's knowledge of locations in NZ as well as his ability to find the exact spot I need is unmatched in my opinion. While on the South Island of NZ we had some weather issues. Cameron was able to find solutions to keep our production on track and not kill the budget. Cameron worked hard to make sure that we are on target with the many as well as keep our shoot moving forward despite snow and rain issues throughout. I wish I had Cameron here in the States as my location scout and manager.'
