Underwater Videography
If a picture is worth a thousand words, a video must be worth a million. Underwater video captures what is impossible to show with a still photo, it helps convey the scope of the underwater landscape, and more than just images, it helps convey the feeling of being underwater.
Fantasea Dive specializes in underwater videography, and is proud to have Equinox Video Housings as our partner. We have used Equinox equipment for over 10 years, filming hundreds of hours of video footage and capturing many magical moments for our guests and our website. After using their product on an almost daily basis we can attest to the quality and durability of the product. We now have a brand new Sony HD Camera with housing from Equinox and another coming soon, which will be great for both filiming underater and teaching the underwater videography course. To check out our latest HD video click here.
Jason Sartain, the owner of Fantasea Dive studied photography and videography, and has been filming and editing underwater video for over ten years all over the world, some of his footage has even been featured on National Geographic documentaries.
Jason films many of our dives, and we offer our guests the opportunity to purchase the video footage from the dive, edited with a music soundtrack added on DVD after the dives. It’s a great memento, for you to remember your dives and share your diving experience with friends and family. A 2 tank dive usually ends up at about 15-20 minutes, and the DVD also includes an hour of video footage collected from various sites in and around Playa Del Carmen and Cozumel set to great chillout background music. We can also rent you an underwater video camera / housing setup (contingent upon our assessment of your basic diving skills being suitable to handle a large video camera underwater).
