Hi, all,

Howard and Michele Hall's new IMAX movie, "Deep Sea 3D" just opened 
Friday in IMAX theaters around the U.S.:

http://howardhall.com/currentpro.html

I'm heading to the local IMAX theater just as soon as my current cold 
clears enough that I don't hack my way into the ill graces of my 
fellow theater goers.

In my opinion there's no better way to learn the art and craft of 
underwater video than by carefully watching any of Howard's work. The 
cinematography is always superb: the images are set against stunning 
backdrops, and he gets animal behavior on film that I've never had 
the opportunity to see, much less point a camera at. His scripts are 
the perfect balance of information and entertainment, and his editing 
and production work top notch. He is extremely good at putting 
together the arc of a story out of his footage, and enhancing it 
throughout by the right sound effects and just the right touches of 
music at appropriate moments.

Granted, we aren't likely to be out there pushing around giant housed 
IMAX cameras set up for 3D, nor are our credits likely to include 
hundreds of people including specialties like "Choir Conducted By:". 
But at the heart of all of Howard's productions is a sense of story 
and artistic balance that anyone can try to emulate no matter how 
limited our time and resources are.

I notice in the credits on Howard's web site that at least one of our 
list members was involved in this movie: John Ellerbrock is listed as 
one of the launch and recovery divers.

I'm keen to see this movie, and thought I'd point it out for those of 
you close enough to an IMAX theater to take it in.

Mike Boom
