Get Epic Water Shots (Affordably)

[@KYLERHOLLAND]

TRUE STORY: I was in Hawaii 2 years ago and I had a DiCAPac. A series of 15 foot waves came in and I was shooting under the waves. It pulled me over the wave and slammed me into the the sand. I lost my camera, flippers, and goggles. By the time I surfaced, the next wave hit. Long story short. I asked my buddies in the water if anyone sees a camera floating around. Through the white wash, my GH5 with the DiCAPac washed up on shore after 5 minutes completely dry. 💯 For under $70 this is a pretty good budget friendly dive case. The only downside when your diving down 20-30 feet, is that the DiCAPac is pretty boyant so it will make you float to the surface faster than normal. Stoked that you got your play button man! 👍

Nature said "lol jk"

[@Michal_Kedzierski]

That's good to hear, might consider getting one for my Sony!

[@ValRalTal]

@@_MJ07_ I laughed so thank you LOL

[@chico3517]

that's actually crazy! i'd have thought it's only good for some pool action or near the beach when you don't put it underwanter completely.

[@DannyGevirtz]

Lol you won’t find my ass bobbing around in 15 footers!! Glad the cam made it out alive

[@kaiwan]

Ohhhh the sound design and the visuals! Next Level!

[@LukasHauf]

Sounddesign was really on point. Unbelievable good!

[@DannyGevirtz]

Haha thanks my guy!!!

[@JT_Film]

So good hey! I was wondering about the sound, it was like slow-mo wave noise, but super crisp so I figured it was recorded/downloaded separately?

[@Cedric2N]

@@JT_Film wondering the same!

[@YCImaging]

Why are the sunsets by the water always the best?

[@DannyGevirtz]

Haha still in awe seeing the sun set of the water coming from the east coast man.

[@RGMGFitness]

*Scientific Answer* 🧐 The angle of the sunset for 1. Light from the sun still strikes the air, including the humid layer right above the water, and the clouds higher in the sky. The steep angle produces the gorgeous deep reds, pinks, and oranges, while the rest of the sky develops shades of purple, blue, and sometimes green, and gold. If you watch a Hawaiian sunset, linger a few minutes after the sun has set and watch the colors develop. Additionally, you have 1) Volcanic dust high in the atmosphere aids scattering 2) Hawaii gets help from geography. The islands are located 20° north of the equator and 155° west of the Prime Meridian in the Northern Hemisphere. The position gives the islands balmy temperatures year-round, which means there’s enough heat to put a lot of water vapor into the air. The humidity aids scattering, intensifying colors 3) The sun sinks into the Pacific Ocean, far from any land mass that could disturb the atmosphere or break the horizon line. The angle of a sunset over water is as good as it can get. 🧐🧐🧐

Congrats on that silver play button my G!

[@DannyGevirtz]

Haha thank you brotha. Im weirdly nervous to leave it out of the box for too long

[@wcsdiaries]

@@DannyGevirtz So...would you recommend the cheap housing? haha

[@justkayy]

ah wow man that sound design took those visuals to another level!

[@DannyGevirtz]

Thanks homie!!

[@BlakeDavis42]

Honestly!! Like I need to know how to do that haha.

[@Theallanrodriguez]

This channel never fails to give me a massive Serotonin boost

[@jl-eb3mm]

Please could you do a colour grading break-down/tutorial for your water shots. A7S III users would love that!

[@DannyGevirtz]

Maybe man!!!

[@erwickdsouza]

Sony* users would love that. Cheerio.

[@jffilms5843]

HOWWWWWW DO YOU DO SUCH AMAZING SOUND DESIGN???? I MEAN SERIOUSLY?? The way the sound changes when the camera goes below surface 4:09 damn, thats on point my man! How on earth did you do that???

[@impatrickt]

I have one of these - shot a piece with the XT3 using it. Worked surprisingly well. Big recco.

[@DannyGevirtz]

Def thanks man!

[@sundownblues9473]

There is no fancy transition, leaving you enough time to read the content of the picture, no excessively thrown mirrors, no eye-catching color grading, summary: comfortable to look comfortable, comfortable to listen to! ( Finally, let me ask the blogger how many millimeter lenses use)

[@jimmyhu7807]

You and Anna are the cutest! I’m loving her inclusion into more of the channel.

[@DannyGevirtz]

Haha thanks man!

[@gabethompson9538]

yall are really out here living your best lives, happy for you guys man! also your color grading remains undefeated, the shots look great. keep it up homie!!

[@DannyGevirtz]

Thanks Gabe!

The sound design made the result 1000000% bettrr

[@julianburrus9956]

I was literally just thinking about how to shoot a water scene for my short. Then Danny just comes along with the solution

[@teamvalomedia]

dude the vibes that those underwater shots give off are all time! Sooo sick!

[@benhesch9131]

You should do a sound effects tutorial on the underwater sequence! This was great as always man!

[@petersanjur32]

Bro your channel has grown so much since I subbed. CONGRATS ON THE 100K

[@Ry_Gordon]

Careful Danny, Anna is quickly becoming the star of the channel! haha in all seriousness, it snowed in my city yesterday so thanks for the warmth and sun!

[@carlos_urena]

It almost hurts to watch this in the middle of a New England winter... live your best life dude!!!

[@benjlocks]

Man, the sound and colours are insane!

[@colorgradingcentral]

W.O.W. Beautiful! The sound of the waves with the music. :ok_hand: What I think is special about this video is you walking us through how to use slow motion to get the best shots! You've really found yourself in your element in Hawaii!

[@LukasHauf]

It was so cute when you guys stood there together and ended the video. Thanks for putting a smile on my face :)

[@DannyGevirtz]

Haha thanks man!

[@africaamaze]

One of the channel I enjoy right here in Africa. His content has inspired some episodes on my KZbin channel

[@DannyGevirtz]

Amazing!! Thank you!

[@africaamaze]

@@DannyGevirtz Thank you for the inspiration. You're the real champ

[@markhoffman9655]

I've got four Dicapacs, up to 15 years old, and all are still waterproof. Got a "proper" UW housing (Meikon brand) for 4x the price of dicapac and the housing body started structurally falling apart at less than 18 months! Staying with Dicapac for sure!

[@joesteiner]

My man, been with the channel for a while now and this series is the perfect evolution. Loving every upload!

[@DannyGevirtz]

Thanks so much man!

There's something special here. I can't quite put my finger on it, but for each video by Danny I see, it's getting clearer.

Oh. My. God. This is UNREAL. Jeez, man i'm blown away. Wow, you created such a sense of a story with it, and the camera movement and edit just throws you into it. Just reallly so so good. I have the A7SIII and am now deeeeefinitely getting this waterproof case in an attempt to see if I can get anything remotely this beautiful.

Okay guys, I know the footage was sick, but can we appreciate Danny's bespoke sound design when dipping underwater? I was wearing headphones and I could feel the water against my head. Like I was in the water at Maui. I've never been to Maui.

Yo, today i spent 6 hour at the local surf spot with my camera and so many times i thought “ oh man if only i can go into the water must be soo cool to take photos “ and than tonight i’ve seen this. INSTANTLY BOUGHT, not kidding

Awesome vid Danny! Some real serene scenes out there in the water. Keen to see this project you’re working on.

Haha thanks man!

Hell yeah! Underwater clips in that budget?! Definitely need to get it! Oh.. and obviously congrats on KZbin silver button bro! 🔥

That clip of big beach was amazing. The color was what impressed me the most, nice job on the grade. Fun seeing that beach again, went there with the wifey on our honeymoon! Great video as usual my dude.

[@DannyGevirtz]

Thanks so much dude!

[@BUEN0FILMS]

Now I can’t wait to try to do an underwater shot at the beach when summer comes! Thanks for showing the case!

[@DannyGevirtz]

For sure! Thank you!

[@brittenjohnston2397]

Maui is one of my most favorite places in the world! It's absolutely beautiful. Surfing is also so much fun there! And if you're looking for some restaurants, Hali'Imaile General Store has the best Pineapple-upside-down cake ever! Molokini is also an awesome place for diving and you could get some incredible footage, although you have to take a boat and you'd probably need a better waterproof case. Love your videos Danny, have a great day!

[@lioninzion]

Awesome video Danny! If anyone reads this comment and is thinking about getting that waterproof case..PLEASE! be 100% sure that its closed properly and don't take it into waves or a place with rocks. I've work for many years with cheap and expensive underwater housings and it only takes 1 drop of water in the wrong hole for your camera to stop working and the possibility for it to happen is big when you just cover your $3000 camera with just a thin layer of plastic....remember, you can't blame the company and insurance won't cover the damage in that case. Keep your cameras safe! peace :)

You've convinced me to not take the risk 😂
