World first - Underwater Films on demand to your PC or laptop
19 March 2006
www.travel-dive.com has launched its first offering of underwater films using video streaming technology for distribution with the award winning "critters" trilogy by John Boyle and Fionn Crow Howieson - www.travel-dive.com/critters-trilogy.
"For the first time ever you can now access quality underwater films whenever and wherever you want through your PC or laptop. You don't need to buy or rent DVDs. You don't need to hope that something eventually pops up on TV at a time convenient to you".
"You can have your own access any time any place to the first of what will be a series of top underwater films - and at a very reasonable price. You can watch on the train, in an airport, at school, at home - like your IPOD gives you music this gives you underwater films absolutely anywhere and anytime! You can even select your own resolution - the quality in which you view the film."
John Boyle, Shark Bay Films
The "critters" trilogy is produced from hundreds of hours of footage shot by John and Fionn of Shark Bay Films - www.sharkbayfilms.com in Indonesia s Lembeh Strait. "critters" has won numerous international awards and been sold to television stations worldwide. Revealed for the first time on video are some of the ocean's most bizarre and secretive macro subjects and their intriguing behaviour both by night and by day. Never before in the history of the Antibes World Underwater Film Festival have two films by the same producer jointly taken the coveted Palme d'Or.
"Media and how we view it is changing, the launch of "Google Video" illustrates that it is commercially viable to sell film which is no longer restricted to the traditional DVD media format. Film makers in the future will be more inclined to distribute their films using this technology, which has many security advantages over DVD".
Alan Edwards, CEO of Travel Dive
"The home PC and more so the laptop are now becoming popular choices for watching film media, making it much easier to store and manage films purchased".
