Hugh Macdonald

Hugh Macdonald began his long filmmaking career at the National Film Unit, where at the age of 25 he directed three-screen spectacular This is New Zealand (1970); he later produced Oscar-nominated short The Frog, the Dog, and the Devil. Macdonald established his own production company in 1986, for which he has made commerical and educational films, railways documentaries and animated shorts. 

"Like a lot of filmmakers, we wanted to make something we'd enjoy ourselves."
