How it all began...

Thomas, a close friend who lives in Thailand, lost his family in the 2005 Christmas tsunami. Searching for good amidst the tragedy, he discovered Biorock, the reef restoration process championed by Dr. Thomas Goreau. After some convincing on his part, I grabbed my camera and journeyed to Indonesia to learn about saving our coral reefs. But the story didn't end there. My education about the perilous state of hard corals brought me back to Florida, where I followed another restoration process developed by Ken Nedimyer in Key Largo. Trips to Kosrae and Australia followed, as I sought out healthy corals in an effort to explain what is going on with our coral reefs.

A side project for Deep Sea Divers Den

Deep Sea Divers Den in Cairns invited me to visit Australia to get a good look at the Great Barrier Reef and shoot more coral footage for "Putting the Pieces Together."

I had such a great time with Deep Sea Divers Den that I decided to make a series of promos for them. Here are a few testimonials I just finished editing. If you find yourself in Australia and want to explore the Great Barrier Reef, make sure to look them up.











Give these short vids a look just for fun, and get an idea of what its like to dive the Great Barrier Reef!
