This travelogue was made by the French company Pathé Frères. An article in The Dominion newspaper in February 1910 reported that “through the medium of the kinematograph the public now know many people, cities, and scenic spots ‘by sight’ that they would not otherwise have known”.” Across the Mountain Passes of New Zealand was coloured using Pathécolor – the best of early colour processes. The process utilised a multitude of female colourists, who cut stencils for each colour in each frame of film and then laboriously hand-coloured each frame.
