Ross Jennings

One of NZ’s most experienced and prolific TV producers, Ross Jennings cut his teeth at Avalon in the late 1970s on dramas including Close to Home. After stints as TVNZ Head of Drama and at Crawfords in Melbourne, he had a long-running association with Screentime Communicado where he created Middlemore, NZ’s first reality series, and Police 10-7. He has executive-produced Māori TV’s ANZAC day coverage since 2009.

I have absolute faith in the New Zealand audience. Once they become comfortable with our own sounds and stories their appetite for local drama will grow and grow ... but you have to give New Zealanders good product, made with heart and passion and integrity.
