Cool ScubaDive Mini-Movie - Kona Hawaii

I'll share my first real attempt at a mini-movie for your warm water "wish I was there scuba diving" enjoyment.


Shot this over a week duration scuba diving from the live-aboard dive boat the Kona Aggressor on the west coast of the Big Island of Hawaii.


19 hours of raw GoPro Hero2 video, Then 130-140 HOURS of self-critical-over-anal Sony Vegas editing later, produced a 15 minute mini-movie comprised of 5 chapters of unique dives, about 3 minutes per chapter.



I dedicated it to my Mom who has brain cancer........



Yes the holy rule of "People get bored after 2-3 minutes watching long dull boring videos" has been broke by me the Executive filmer/producer guy...........but I honestly don't feel this is long dull or boring.

Give it 15 minutes of your life, every 3 minutes it really changes tempo.

I think you'll enjoy the music, dive video, and sound effects from Diver Dave Productions.

Feedback is always welcome, especially from fellow divers.

Happy Bubbles.


video work underwater can be quite challenging shooting with filters, lighting, and meanwhile trying to stay alive while getting dog piled into the reef bottom by a 1000 pound 12-13 foot wingspan manta ray during a night dive....ho hum, pretty boring.

Go Full Screen, and enjoy the high def.
