Underwater cinematography is considered one of the most complex branches of capturing motion pictures. In addition to dedicated equipment needed to house the body of the camera, special skills are required to move around during underwater filming. The Underwater Cinematography showreel features examples of work done by the director of photography Aleksei Kulikov using various cameras and underwater kits.
In terms of specialised equipment, we have Nauticam underwater housing for Sony A7Siii, which is connected with Ninja V housing, that allows the cameraman to see bigger and clearer pictures. We can also give a clean feed on a surface for directors via SDI nautical cable with a length of 45 meters. Directors can give comments and commands for cameramen and actors underwater with a special Diver Recall System, which is an underwater loudspeaker.
