    Why you clarity and colour quality is so good means how have you used any filters generally we don't see in an underwater scuba diving?

    • @shanobot
      @shanobot  4 роки тому

      I was lucky with water clarity and sunlight on the dives. I was also shallow enough (8-16m) to get good lighting into the shots. I was using a fairly light red redfilter which helps to add back some colour which is normally lost from the surrounding water absorbing it. Post dive I then edit the footage either by adding an extra manual white balance or adding contrast. Even with the naked eye you will not see the true colour of the reef/fish under the water unless you have artificial light, which is why night dives are so amazing.

  • @imandaniel4829
    @imandaniel4829 5 років тому +4

    WOW this is amazing! Can I know what did you use/do for stabilisation? That cuttlefish scene was amazing! no idea how did you get so close to those shy creatures

    • @shanobot
      @shanobot  5 років тому +1

      This was filmed on my hero 3black + I had used it for many years so I knew how it films. No stabilising was done, unless it was for effect (slowing down) but buoyancy is to a steady shot. Those cuttlefish didn't care about me at the time :)

      You can try dive (discover scuba diving) its a small session in a swimming pool or shallow ocean with practicing a few skills and then onto one or two dives max depth of 12m. if you enjoy it, some of the experience credits towards the full Open Water course.
