Blue Whales with Greenpeace
Engaged by Greenpeace, we embarked on a captivating aerial cinematography project to film the migration of Blue Whales, 40 miles offshore. We captured stunning UHD footage of these vulnerable marine mammals ascending to the surface, showcasing their majestic presence in the vastness of the Pacific Ocean. This footage was used in 2 broadcast TVCs (television commercials) in Australia and New Zealand, raising awareness about the dangers of both seismic surveying and deep-sea drilling. These adverts discuss the risks to and impact on marine ecosystems and the endangered pygmy blue whales.
