Director’s Bio

Fraser's love for film began at a young age and led him to graduate from the New Zealand School of Film and Television in 2009. He began his professional journey on Jane Campion’s “Top of the Lake” and has navigated the industry across numerous projects since, including the NZ television series “Vegas” and “One Lane Bridge” with a clear goal of directing his own material in mind. With his Directorial debut under his belt beginning the next significant and deeply fulfilling chapter in his career, Fraser is eager to continue on this path bringing more stories to life on the big screen.
