Kia Ora From New Zealand
 

Hey guys and gals,

I just found this forum through camcorderinfo.com and I am a vegas semi n00b. Look foward to helping out here

Hey Scott, welcome aboard from another Kiwi. What part of NZ are you in?

You will find a MASSIVE amount of information and help here - before long you won't be a noob anymore ;)

Cheers
Aaron

Kia Ora Scott--I'm not a Kiwi but your country is one of my favorite places on earth, after having trekked through it last year. Welcome to DVI.

Thanks for the warm welcoming guys, I am from Christchurch!!! Yeah, I have already started looking and found a HUGE amount of Vegas info, which is higher than any other resource on the net!

A Southerner, eh? Welcome aboard, Scott! Your country is at the top of my "most desirable places to visit" list.

Another Kiwi. Good on yer mate!!!! I'm from Auckland. Say. Where's Christchurch? Never heard of it :)

After the previous crack you'll probably write back and call me a JAFA!!! :)

Scott, a year later my girlfriend still dreams of our salmon dinner at "Cooking with Gas" in Christchurch...nice joint.

Hi Scott,

Vegas and NZ--I like you already! :) I say that because I use (and love) Vegas, PLUS Owen here is one of my dearest friends.

I'm saving up to visit NZ someday. After I give Owen a great big hug I'm going to find the place where they strap people in that huge ball and roll them down a hill. (What's that called again, Owen???) Sounds like a blast!

Have fun here, Scott, and welcome!

Ooooh Lorinda. That was a sneaky one!

The place is Rotorua. The ball is a Zorb. They strap you in by your wrists and ankles. Throw in a bucket or two of water. Then, let you roll down a bumpy hill till you hit the bottom.

I tell ya though. A hug from me will give ya a bigger thrill!!!

LOL! Sounds like a promise to me!!

Hey, you never mentioned those buckets full of water before. That could get interesting... :)

So...It's a roll down the hill and a wet T-shirt contest at the same time. I'm impressed.

Hahahaha! That's hilarious, Joe! The Kiwis think of everything. :)

Say, what happened to Scott? We didn't mean to hijack your thread, mate!

Hello Scott

What a coincidence! As we speak I’m editing in Vegas some HDV footage I shot in Deans Bush couple of months ago when visiting the family, Kahu Rd. Riccarton where they live. You know; ducks, grandkids, the Cottage, trees, the incredibly green grass. I’m from Christchurch too but I was born in Temuka; bet nobody else here knows that little village. Now I’m living in central Mexico and like everyone else I’m writing a screenplay!

There is another forum here that you might also find useful. Not as good as this one (had to say that didn’t I) http://www.sonymediasoftware.com/forums/default.asp. Look for ‘Spot’. He knows a thing or two.

Cheers mate.

John

Good call, John, but just in case ya didn't know, Spot's a moderator here too!

Hey All,

Yeah Deans bush is a very cool place, there was a major fire there a while back.

ZORBING! Thats such an awesome thing, I have never done it, but I am gonna fly and drive around NZ during the Xmas break and go Bungy Jumping and Base Jumping and Zorbing and all the crazy kiwi things :D

Good to know that there is quite alot of NZ'ers/lovers here

Keep it Kiwi

Aussie living in New Zealand here.
I'm up north in Whangarei.
