Summer to winter, captured every 50 minutes for three months.
Air New Zealand's winter campaign followed a snowboarder flying into Queenstown in summer, then journeying through the seasons to the ski fields. The brief required a genuine, continuous seasonal record, not a staged shoot. Three PhotoSentinel Pro units, a Canon 6D, and three months of patience.

Making of
Setup
Three PhotoSentinel Pro units were deployed at Arrowtown, The Remarkables, and the Queenstown area. Canon 6D cameras captured RAW images stored locally; preview JPEGs transmitted every 50 minutes via 3G. Partners Syrp and Diaries Downunder coordinated ground logistics.
Operation
The cameras ran continuously through the full seasonal shift: summer grass to autumn color to winter snow. The final campaign video was edited from the timelapse sequence and released as part of Air New Zealand's winter marketing push, reaching audiences globally.
“The final video follows a snowboarder who flies into Queenstown in summer and then walks up to the mountains and through the seasons to the ski fields.”
