Kohuorangi Communications captures kaupapa Māori through photography, videography, social content and long-form storytelling. We work alongside whānau, hapū, iwi and organisations to document events, people and stories that deserve to be seen and remembered.
KOR was invited to Maketū to capture the Ngā Herenga o Papatūānuku wānanga, supported by Te Pae Tūroa – Natural Hazards and Resilience Platform.
The kaupapa brought together tangata whenua, researchers, practitioners and community leaders from across Aotearoa to share experiences, knowledge and approaches to climate change adaptation and resilience.
Our team captured the wānanga and produced a series of videos highlighting the kōrero, people and place-based solutions shared throughout the kaupapa, helping extend these important conversations beyond the event itself.
Photography, videography, interviews, drone photography and aerial videography that capture the whenua, waterways, people and kaupapa connected to the taiao.
Photo and video coverage of wānanga, restoration projects, species releases, field days, environmental events and community kaupapa, both on the ground and from the air.
Communications support for taiao kaupapa, including campaign development, social media content, promotional videos, key messaging and ongoing project storytelling.
Clear visual and written documentation of environmental projects, including progress updates, project summaries, photography, video, interviews and content that helps communicate outcomes to whānau, stakeholders and funders.
KOR travelled to Ōrākei to capture a climate resilience and adaptation wānanga led by Pou Take Āhuarangi, the climate pou of the National Iwi Chairs Forum. Hosted at Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei and facilitated by Kiri Allan, the kaupapa brought together iwi leaders, practitioners, researchers and taiao experts to share knowledge and kōrero around climate risks, resilience and Māori-led approaches to adaptation. Our role was to capture the people, kōrero and key moments from the wānanga, creating video content that could help extend these important conversations to whānau, hapū and iwi across Aotearoa.
KOR captured the Toitoi Manawa rangatahi programme, a kaupapa designed to reconnect young people with the taiao, their whenua and one another through hands-on experiences and learning. Across the programme, rangatahi took part in activities including rafting the Mōhaka River, horse riding in Mōhaka, learning about the taiao, and gathering and preparing kai. Through these experiences, they developed confidence, strengthened relationships and grew both individually and as a collective. Our role was to document that journey and capture the growth, learning and connection that unfolded throughout the kaupapa.
KOR worked alongside Maungaharuru-Tangitū Trust to capture the release of kākā back into the rohe, documenting an important milestone in the ongoing restoration of native species and the wider taiao. Our role was to capture the preparation, people and key moments surrounding the release, creating content that could help share the kaupapa with whānau and the wider community while highlighting the connection between mana whenua, conservation and the return of taonga species.
