Baz Caitcheon
Director/Cameraman

After graduating with a degree in commerce and arts Baz Caitcheon taught English, music & media studies at various High Schools. The early 90’s saw him move into the heady world of television with his pioneering self-camming technique `Bazzacam’ which featured as a comic slot on TV3’s nightline.  

From 1995–2000 he was hired as Executive Producer of TVNZ’s New Digital Media wing, responsible for producing content on two community based cable TV channels, one in Auckland and one in Wellington.

Since 2000 he has worked as a director/cameraman for a variety of reality TV series and as a leading director/cameraman of corporate non-broadcast communications including the monthly team news for NZ retailer `The Warehouse’.

Baz has an amazing ability to tell and visualize the human story, no matter the subject matter. But what truly set’s him apart are his people skills and his ability to make everyone feel at ease in front of
the camera, regardless of their experience.
