Filming has wrapped on a TV series showcasing the people and stories of Te Arawa.
The last footage for Nga Tangata Taumata Rau - Nga Waru Pumanawa was shot this week with the show to on Maori Television in August.
The award-winning production is now in its second series.
This series' presenter is Rotorua's Kahurangi Maxwell (pictured on front page) - daughter of long-time district councillor Trevor Maxwell - while the director is Chey Milne, also of Rotorua.
There will be 13 episodes based on the people of Te Arawa showcasing their local stories in their native tongue.
Miss Maxwell was asked by creators and producers Maui TV Productions to join the show.
"I jumped at the opportunity because anything that is kaupapa Maori and that is about te reo Maori is always inviting to me, but in particular the opportunity to sit with prominent people of Te Arawa and hear stories and hear their perspective on where we at as an iwi and some past stories as well."
She said every episode was based on either a person or a couple and was a profile on them as well as their knowledge and understanding of the Maori world and in particular their iwi.
"Because this is a te reo Maori show they need to be able to hold an hour episode in te reo Maori, so that has been part of the selection process.
"Most of them have been obvious choices and we just have to check whether they are available and if they would give us their time, so we are very, very lucky that they are willing to share their knowledge ," she said.
"We started in November, so it's been a little while, we are fortunate enough that Maui has a great formula in terms of capturing this documentary, we have been able to capture things within a day.
"It's gone quite while, we've got a good team. They've done series one so they have obviously picked up on some techniques on how to make it efficient, it's a great crew."
She said Maui TV Productions would want to do a third series and would probably move onto another region, but it was all funding dependent.
"I've been lucky to have this role and to sit and listen with some awesome people," she said.
The first series, Nga Tangata Taumata Rau - Nga Tamariki o Te Kohu, aired in August last year.
It was presented by Mere McLean, and native speakers of Ngai Tuhoe shared their true life accounts in a dialect unique to Tuhoe.
