Underwater Videographer Course Gold Coast

WHAT WILL YOU LEARN?

Firstly, your PADI Instructor will explain how to select, maintain and care for your underwater video equipment, whether it’s a housed unit with external lights, or your underwater camera that also shoots video. So you’ll cover fundamentals such as exposure, focus, story line and sequencing. Post dive, you’ll learn about the editing process and how to produce a video that truly captures your scuba adventures.

Also, get credit! The first dive of this PADI Specialty Diver course may credit as an Adventure Dive toward your Advanced Open Water Diver certification – ask your instructor about earning credit.

HOW CAN YOU START LEARNING NOW?

Digital Underwater Videographer Course Gold Coast – PADI’s eLearning option – cover the basics of underwater imaging, with the third section dedicated to video.

WHAT EQUIPMENT WILL YOU USE?

Of course you’ll use an underwater video camera and need your basic scuba equipment. To edit your video, you’ll need access to video editing equipment, which usually includes a computer with editing software. Ask your PADI Instructor or local dive center staff about what additional equipment you may need for getting high-quality underwater video while diving locally.
