'Creating videos for conferences using collected footage from others and my own captured footage.'
There’s a lot more to milk management than just machines and processes. At its core, it’s about people - those behind the technology, managing the systems, and keeping everything running smoothly. My role was to capture this human element, showcasing how Waikato’s innovative solutions integrate seamlessly into real-world dairy operations. I filmed at one of their managed facilities in the Western Cape, while other teams covered additional locations across South Africa.
The result? A series of insightful videos designed to bring their system to life at major conferences, emphasising not just efficiency but the people who make it happen.
