"Stuart Cove’s UW Production Team Helps Shoot the Campaign for GoPro Dive Housing and HD HERO2® camera
The latest video sensation from GoPro features a pair of daredevils diving and swimming with sharks. The images are part of the latest campaign by GoPro, the fast-growing video and imaging company. As of today, the video on YouTube has scored over 700,000 views and climbing daily.
As with many high profile media projects, the video’s producers sought help from Stuart Cove’s Dive Bahamas for this innovative shoot, which took place in the Bahamas on two islands over four days in May, 2012. Featuring Wingsuit base jumper and Italian phenom Roberta Mancino together with pro surfer and world renowned free diver Mark Healey, the five-minute video highlights the new GoPro Dive Housing and HD HERO2® camera.
“They were looking for something different and visually appealing for this shoot, and we had just the spots,” said Stuart Cove. “The GoPro camera and dive housing allows divers to capture underwater video in a completely new way. We enjoyed being part of this shoot and look forward to the GoPro team returning very soon.”
Stuart Cove’s Dive Bahamas Nassau and Tiger Beach, West End, operations continue to set the standard for aquatic locations in the Hollywood production and commercial filming industry. Abundant marine life, including large sharks, and clear waters make for ideal conditions. For more information, go to Stuart Cove’s Dive Bahamas or Stuart Cove’s Tiger Beach."
