In the world of wildlife
In the world of wildlife filmmaking there’s really nothing that compares to underwater cinematography. Wildlife filmmaking is dominated by telephoto lenses with most cinematographers relying on the Canon 50-1000mm lens, a technological feat that allows cinematographers to capture wildlife footage from the safety of a few hundred meters away.
For underwater shooters, this is like a cheat code. Underwater, we often can’t capture good quality footage if we’re any more than 3 or 4 meters away. Underwater we have to not only be in the action, we often find ourselves as part of it. And this is what makes underwater cinematography so epic.
This crazy feeling of being in amongst the action, filming it all on an ultra wide angle lens, is what makes underwater cinematography so unique. We have to master underwater wildlife behaviour, and use our knowledge of the animal to manage our interaction with them to ensure that we not only capture the shot, but do so safely and without disturbing or harassing the wildlife.
