MIKE OLDERSHAW
Mike is a New Zealand based director who regularly works throughout NZ and Australia, although he has shot all around the world in countries such as India, UAE, USA and Thailand. His ability as an actor, and his years of experience as a casting director, have given him the perfect background for his career as a performance focused director. Mike has enjoyed great success as a director of commercials, working on major campaigns for companies like Woolworths, IGA Supermarkets, Oporto, RAC, Nestle, PepsiCo, AA Insurance, NZ Police, ITM Building Supplies, BP, AUT University, Dominion Breweries, Fisher & Paykel, Coca-Cola, McDonald’s, Lotteries, Ford, NIB Insurance along with many, many others.
He directs stories for various media platforms and is just as at home making long format viral content as he is making a traditional 30 sec TV commercial.
Mike loves creating and developing strong characters for storytelling/performance based scripts.
He also quite likes it if they’re funny…
