AUCKLAND’S LARGEST TV STUDIO UNVEILED, SETTING STAGE FOR INDIGENOUS CONTENT
Auckland’s largest television studio floor and training facility, Hawaikirangi, was officially inaugurated today with a dawn karakia.
Iwi, politicians, broadcasters and creative producers joined Whakaata Māori kaimahi for the event. Spanning 232 square metres and located beside the Whakaata Māori building, the facility includes two studios, offices, audience spaces and live broadcast capabilities.
Māori Development Minister Willie Jackson called for political backing of the initiative. “We must tautoko this kaupapa. Don’t use us in the games. We are in a fight for our reo. We are in a fight for our culture,” he declared.
