[@UnderwaterJourney]

Thank you so much Kelly , i am glad you liked it !

[@josebancalerodelosreyes3279]

You are not the only one thinks that. Without any doubt, the best video I have ever seen. I love scuba and I usually watch underwater videos. I think this one over passed my expectations. I had to watch it twice. Cinematic effect is incredible. Stabilization is great. Lights and contrasts are perfect. Transitions between scenes are optimal. Undoubtly, no words describe it's really good quality. Thanks for delighting us like this!

[@scubaneto]

Totally blown away!! Again, a masterpiece. Great music, amazing footage and perfect editing. Well done ! This is one of the best locations to dive wrecks from WW2 in Europe.

Another awesome video! Amazing composition! Love it! Which wrecks did you dive? The first one is the P29, right? In july we are supposed to go to Malta but with all that is happening i don't know if we can go... anyway... Which dive sites do you recommend?

[@UnderwaterJourney]

Thank you so much , it is very considerate of you , as always ! In this video you have a mix of 7 different wrecks which list you can find in the credits at the end of the video. The very first image is actually the P31 (Comino) 😉 but you're right some of the shots at the beginning are from the P29 . I sincerely hope that you can come to Malta in July , even though I unfortunately doubt it . I am afraid we all have to stay put for a (long) while.The ones I would recommend are P29 (which you already know) , Karwela in Gozo , Um el Faroud and Le Polynesien (if the viz is ok ) , the one you should not do is the Imperial eagle as it was dealt a severe blow after the last storm last year. Besides i love caves in general , the ones in Comino are real fun . Stay safe

@@UnderwaterJourney What camera system do you film with?

[@UnderwaterJourney]

@@patrickschneider1977 An old Sony AX100 , Gates housing and combination of Sola and Keldan Lights.

[@patrickschneider1977]

@@UnderwaterJourney Oh... how nice... I own the SONY FDR-AX33. I'm currently still making my videos of snorkeling and diving with an old Hero Black 5. But I would like to update my equipment... do you have a recommendation?

[@UnderwaterJourney]

@@patrickschneider1977 The AX33 is a good camcorder , i guess there must be a housing designed for it . I personally do not like Go Pros for underwater filming even though it is a incredible and versatile camera. Nowadays i would not buy a camcorder but a DSLR

[@viktorjarinov8854]

Bravo! Camera Editing Processing Music Finally appropriate underwater musc. Few moments (IMHO ) I would reduce music level. Too dramatic, but general conclusion - you are Elite and low rating just confirming that. No "deadly sharks". No hip hop. Bravo. Subscribing.

[@UnderwaterJourney]

Hi Viktor . Thank you so much for dropping a comment . We all like compliments but they rarely come as constructive and honest as yours and this is what precisely makes one improve. I truly appreciate your pertinent feedback and you are most certainly right about the choice of dramatic/epic music. I reckon i become excessive in my enthusiasm at times lest the movie would lead to boredom😳.Useful tip about music level too. Thanks a lot for watching and subscribing.

[@EmonBalatucan]

Wow, beautiful video. Thank so for sharing this. Btw, do I need an advance open water cert to dive in malta especially the wreck? I only have open water cert. thanks

[@UnderwaterJourney]

Hi Emon. Sorry for the late reply , i was on a diving trip . Thanks a lot for your kind review , You do not have to be an Advanced diver to dive Malta BUT i highly recommend to either do your advanced course here or to come to dive Malta once you already are a certified advanced diver because as you pointed out as an OWD , you would not be allowed to dive most of the wrecks... which is mostly what Malta underwater is about .

[@UnderwaterJourney]

@@RobertoPiroddi do you mean a comparison divewise?

[@RobertoPiroddi]

@@UnderwaterJourney thnx for replying! Yeah, divewise but also total experiencewise :) we dove this year in egypt and really liked it, so now considering going back to a different part or visit Malta which we never been to

[@UnderwaterJourney]

​@@RobertoPiroddi Hi Roberto . Comparing both would obviously be to the advantage of Egypt . The Red Sea biodiveristy exeeds the Mediterranean one by far. The red Sea satisfies even the most demanding divers hence its incredible popularity as a diving destination . On the other hand, the Mediterranean sea in general and Malta in particular is known for its steep dropoffs and numerous wrecks . The viz here is also just incredible throughout the year . I would say that both offer different dive experiences.On land, Malta is famous for its culture and history . Take care Roberto.

[@RobertoPiroddi]

@@UnderwaterJourney thanks again, probably gonna try egypt then covidwise, but will definetely keep Malta in mind too:)

Salut Capucine . Comment vas tu ? J'espere que tu te readaptes bien a ta nouvelle vie . Merci d'avoir vu la video . Les epaves au contraire permettent a une partie de la faune de trouver un refuge. Merci a toi !

[@DiversLens]

Phenomenal short movie. I called it 'movie' because it is at a completely different level compared to other videos. There are many great underwater videos with great footage, music, etc., but this and all other videos of yours (I watched them all several times already) stands out because they are very cinematic. Every single detail is thought through. Transitions from drone footage to underwater footage are perfect. Great idea, excellent execution! I see that you have a similar set up that I have. What color filter do you use? The one that came with the Gates housing? Red or pink?

[@UnderwaterJourney]

Wow Val ! I am speechless with all your fantastic and kind words about my videos. I could not possibly tell you how much your support and appreciation means to me. I do try to make them look as cinematic as possible and i do pay attention to little details as well , that is why i always need such a long time for editing . It is extremely nerve-racking and discouraging at times but your beautiful comments are the best reward i could wish for. I use the orange filter mounted on the Gates and color correct in post when needed . Here is an interesting article about color correction for the AX100: www.gateshousings.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/UW-Color-Correction-with-the-Sony-AX100-R1.pdf . Take care Val and again thank you so much.

[@DiversLens]

@@UnderwaterJourney Thank you for the link to the article. I do remember reading it. I am not sure how practical it is to use their recommendations of using white slate with a red sticker. If you do not mind to share your specific tips on underwater WB setup you I will appreciate it. If you prefer, you could contact me directly at [e-mail]

[@UnderwaterJourney]

@@DiversLens Hi Val . I might dissapoint you but i quit using manual balance some time ago already. I realized at first that the AX100 really struggles with achieving an accurate manual white balance U/W. I tried with a white slate but got uneven results .Besides As you need to do a new MWB every time lightning conditions or depths change , i found the process to be very tedious . I would sometimes also miss filming some unexpected action shots while manipulating the camera . Instead , i try to get the best possible exposure and rely a lot on the fantastic Keldan lights and change the positions of the housing arms a lot. I take care of the adjustments in post.

[@DiversLens]

@@UnderwaterJourney Thank you for your reply, Yann. I agree that using a white slate is not practical in most situations. This is probably one of the reasons of why Gates stopped manufacturing them. With newer Sony camcorders like NX80 and Z90, they say that a slate is not required and that the camera determines WB based on the information from each scene when you press WB button. Here is a link to the article: www.gateshousings.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/AX700-Z90-Housing-Recommended-Settings-R2.pdf Juan Monterey, whose full time job is to study all this staff and experiment, is achieving very good results. He is setting MWB to the scene for every single shot. He is also working with HLG picture profiles. Here is the link to his channel, if you are interested: kzbin.infovideos I am not getting as good results as Juan does, although. Still learning. In your case, what is the Setting for WB in your camcorder: a set value, i.e. 5400K, Auto or something else? I understand that when you rely on your video lights as the main source of light, you probably set WB to the K value of your lights, but what WB setting are you using for wider scenes? In any case, whatever you are doing, you are getting very good results. Thank you again and best regards, Val.

[@UnderwaterJourney]

@@DiversLens Thank you so much for the Gates link and the KZbin one, very interesting and useful, i will check them out. I usually keep it on Auto or set it to 5600K like my Keldans but it tends to give too warm color tones in some situations. Getting it right is very tricky indeed 😀 . Be safe Val
