Spencer Byers, who is completing a Master of Applied Science at Otago Polytechnic - Te Pūkenga, is juggling his studies with exciting roles at Animation Research Ltd and Otago Rugby. Spencer clocked up some serious air points earlier in the year, helping ARL cover major golf tournaments such as the Mexico Open in Vallarta, as well as other PGA Tour events in Washington DC, Dallas and Tulsa.

His role as a graphics operator involved being in constant communication with the director and producer of each show, providing live tracking of shots, ball positions, fly-overs of each hole and much more.
