The brief

A liveaboard dive operator running the Komodo Islands, one of the most spectacular marine environments on earth, with imagery that didn’t come close to the experience. The ask: content strong enough to sell premium dive packages to travelers who’ve never heard of Wallacea.

The work

We flew to Indonesia and got in the water. Shot on RED Komodo and Canon R5 in underwater housing: reef life, the boats, the islands from the air, and the divers themselves: the full arc of what a week aboard actually feels like. Delivered as a campaign film and a deep photo library built for social, web, and booking pages.

The results

The numbers above landed inside a single season. For a boutique dive operator on the other side of the world, reach at that scale is a different business.

The film

Komodo, by liveaboard.

The 2023 brand film: four minutes across the park. The boat, the reefs, the mantas, the crew. Sound on for this one.

In the feed

Cut for the phone.

Cut vertical for the cruise's feed: the gear, the giant stride, the reef.

Gearing up
This life
To the reef

The takeaway

Remote is not a reason to settle for less: it's the reason to go bigger. The harder the place is to reach, the more the content is worth once you're standing in it.
