Air New Zealand’s Epic Videos

By W. R. Miller on November 8, 2014

Air New Zealand wants you to know they’re the official airline of Middle- earth and to prove it, they’ve produced an amazing promotional video just in time for the release of The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies. Starring Elijah Wood and Sir Peter Jackson, Sylvester McCoy, Dean O’Gorman and Sir Richard Taylor of Weta Workshop. Directed by Taika Waititi. Is this “The Most Epic Safety Video Ever Made”? See for yourself:

Naturally, epic safety videos have to have behind-the-scenes documentaries.

As Air New Zealand says, “Go behind the scenes with Elijah Wood, Sir Peter Jackson and the wizards of Weta Workshop to witness magic being created. You’ll explore authentic filming locations such as the majestic mountain ranges in Queenstown and the lush, humble dwelling of Hobbiton. Go one on one with Hobbit cast members and discover that your Middle-earth adventure is closer than you think.”
