Water and underwater cinematography, from the shorebreak to open water.

Water & Underwater CinematographyI've filmed in the water since 2011 and sailed since I was six.
I shoot surf, swimming, sailing and marine scenes from in the water, on boats and from the shore, for commercials, TV and music videos, including The Endless Winter II for Channel 4 and music videos for Beirut and Andy Burrows.
As the DOP I keep the water shots in the same look as the rest of the film, so the edit flows from land to sea without a jump.
What I bring
In-water camera work with housed cinema cameras.
Boat-to-boat and marine tracking.
Safety-first working, with risk assessments and water safety cover.
Surf knowledge: tides, swell and where the light falls.
Water housings and marine kit are hired out by Light Colour Sound, my specialist film services company.
