Write a short summary of what happens in the film

The series was comprised of our unique people showing off our unique culture and place. Like 2-year-old Sadie, blowing the world a kiss and wishing the world a good morning from her rural Northland beach house. Or the eccentric Eddie, showing the world his favourite alpine swimming spot on Lake Wanaka, encouraging people to take the plunge with him. And Shane from Bluff shucking New Zealand’s world- renowned Bluff oysters, Terau from Tokomaru Bay about to ride along the beach with his horse, and Ray from Te Anau featuring his prized pet, Penelope the Pig. Every Good Morning World film was unique and enabled Kiwis to say good morning, while showing the world what they were up to from their little part of New Zealand, and inviting travellers to come on down and experience NZ’s people and places for themselves.

Cultural / Context information for the jury

New Zealand’s traditional owners of the land are the Māori. They have occupied and tended to the land and waters of New Zealand for over 700 years. It is their worldview that significantly influences the New Zealand culture you see today. The core Māori principle discussed in this entry is the principle of “Manaakitanga.” It loosely translates as “hospitality,” however the definition goes further, encompassing behaviours of hospitality, kindness, generosity, support — it is the process of showing respect, generosity and care for others. Another term mentioned is “bach” (pronounced ‘batch’) — New Zealand slang for a small, modest holiday home or beach house.

Explain how the work innovatively used the film medium.

We embraced a truly social-led, content-first approach, with a new ‘Good Morning World’ video released every morning on our new ‘Good Morning World’ Instagram account and YouTube channel, as well as other existing Pure New Zealand channels. 365 individual films... 365 castings. The innovation of creating a campaign of 365 individual films (instead of one big one) to share with the world every day was huge, shifting from the expected epic landscapes, to showcasing the epic Kiwis who make those landscapes so welcoming. In the process, we flipped traditional tourism advertising on its head and generated incredible results because of it.
