Oceans Below Koh Tao Expands to Ban's Dive Resort!

One of the first questions we tend to get asked when a new student starts their BSAC Professional HD Underwater Video course is, "If I decide to do the customer filming internship as opposed to the documentary-style internship, will I be able to find work on the island afterwards?"

How about this for a job...?

Up until now, Oceans Below has been doing well with finding work for our trainees. We do the best that we can to keep them busy at the many shops that we represent, but there's oftentimes more applicants than jobs. We've been able to find fulltime positions for our trainees in dive centers such as Buddha View Dive Resort, Davy Jones Locker, Asia Divers, and Island Dive Club as well as the positions that we have with Scuba Junction, Easy Divers, Simple Life Divers and Seashell.

This look like work to you?

But as of now, things should be even easier. Anyone who comes to do their underwater video training in Thailand with us and then chooses to do the paid vdo internship, will be welcome to film resort videos for one of Asia's most successful dive centers- Bans Dive Resort on Sairee Beach. Ban's has a good reputation for training divers and there are literally hundreds of students coming through each month to do dive training. The owner of their video company, being impressed with the quality of training at Oceans Below, has asked us to send our new trainees over to him to join their crew as resort videographers!

How do you reckon he deals with so much stress?

This is an amazing opportunity for our new interns to start making their investment back from the pro video course as soon as they have completed an internship with us, and to join the ranks of professional divers who have, quite possibly, one of the best jobs in the world!

We look forward to working closely with the crew from Ban's Diving in the future and we're sure to see our new underwater videographers thrive...

I had a fantastic time with the enthusiastic crew of Oceans Below Koh Tao doing the BSAC Professional HD Underwater Videographer Course!

Being a professional cinematographer, Oceans Below adapted the course to my needs and took great care to introduce me to underwater filming. It's a fantastic new world out there- and they show you how to capture it.

I can very much recommend this course to dive professionals as well as any diver with a visual interest. What a great way to spend a holiday in Thailand!

 
Professional Cinematographer, Eike, Learns to Film the Underwater World!

Oceans Below welcomed our newest BSAC Pro HD Video trainee, Eike recently. With an extended background in the German film industry including his latest award-winning project Hans Im Gluck, his experience with shot-making, sequencing and the editing programs is invaluable.

He came to us to seek further training in making the move to underwater filming and we've had a fantastic time with him so far. It seems that a Professional Underwater Video course in Thailand is also the perfect escape from a brutal European winter!

Eike's a relatively inexperienced diver and is finding it a challenge to get himself in the right place at the right time, but his shot selection is fantastic and, as we'd expect, his camera work is faultless. His only complaint is that this work is difficult as it's not possible to "direct fish"!
