Subject: Britannic footage
Date: Sat, 4 Sep 1999 19:24:04 -0400
As George and Bob pointed out, we're under contract to the
production company working on a Britannic documentary. The show they are
creating should air in four to six months. Until then, you won't hear a word
from us about what was seen in the wreck. Once the show airs I have a wealth
of additional images to post on www.gue.com. It is cool to talk about
logistics and specifics of the diving, just not the discoveries made within
the ship itself.

On the roughest days we were able to place two cameras a day on the
Britannic. When conditions settled, we were running up to five cameras a
day.

Footage was shot by JJ, Barry Miller, Richard Lundgren, Andrew
Georgitsis, Steve Berman, and probably two or thee others that I'm
forgetting about. All of the underwater cameras were Sony digital video. Not
that I've watched that much wreck video personally, but I've never seen such
cool wreck footage in my life. Even with 150+ foot vis in the ocean at 400',
you can only see a _sixth_ of the length of the Britannic at any given time.
The interior shots are stunning.

The last dives were on Friday. JJ and the rest of the team head home on
Monday.
