SONGS FOR DYING / SONGS FOR LIVING (2021)

Advisor - Underwater Cameraman

   Korakrit Arunanondchai is a Thai visual artist and director with a deep love and passion for the ocean. We originally first met when he wanted me to teach him about underwater filmmaking, and quickly offered me to DP parts of his films which we ended up shooting on Koh Tao. 

​

   Krit is the only artist I've worked with of his style, and whenever he calls me up I know it's going to be a good conversation. "So we need to find a turtle, have a model dressed up as a ghost spirit and she needs to be singing to the turtle underwater". And we're shooting this naturally in the wild, again with the help of the amazing Notep being our freediver model.

​

   I'm someone who appreciates a challenge, and that's something that Krit always delivers! Throughout working with him we've captured several underwater sequences that required extensive pre-production and planning. And throughout we always come out on top with everyone being safe and the final footage coming out really well.
