The Power Mix

Meet the women mixing up Dunedin’s DJ scene. This short documentary dives into overcoming setbacks and remixing what it means to be behind the decks. Ōtepoti DJs share stories of resilience, creativity, and a deep passion for music as they step up as promoters, mentors, producers, and true scene shapers. Through this project I aimed to amplify the voices of women DJs in Aotearoa and offer a glimpse into their lives and endeavours.

As well as paying homage to how they have shaped the scene, I hope their stories inspire the next generation to break barriers and be heard. My drive is to highlight stories and issues from passionate people by creating impactful visual narratives. With a background in graphic design, I bring a distinctive style to each film project I pursue. I’m most inspired when collaborating within the music scene. Merging music and design through rhythm and the feelings that music evokes, elevates each story I tell.
