Underwater & Aerial Videography
Since 1992 I have been shooting underwater video. As
technology changes, I keep current with the latest equipment on the market.
My main camera is the Sony
Z1, which shoot in 1080/60i, 1080/50i, HD and DVCAM.
My backup camera & deep water camera housing (rated
to 200m) is the Sony
HC1 which also shoot in 1080/60i, 1080/50i, HD and DV. This has been used to film the Yolanda Wreck in 160m in the Red Sea. Egypt.
I have HID underwater lighting for my cameras, and have
2 underwater DPV (scooters) that are equipped to carry a camera to shoot
perfect underwater tracking shots down to over 100m.
All camera are designed for underwater usage, and are
also equipped to be used for aerial filming assignments. Each camera can be mounted on a special designed mount for steady aerial footage.
I hold a
HSE
diving qualification & a current HSE
medical to allow me to work legally underwater for any media related assignments
in the UK and for around the world.
I offer clients SCUBA or CCR
(Closed
circuit rebreather) which allow me to work in almost any
enviroment with no bubbles. This is especially good for working with marine
life for a long time and working underneath subjects.
All work undertaken has a full risk assessment drafted
up, & all other member of the dive team are HSE qualified to
assist on the job.
