Filmed over hundreds of dives around Vancouver Island and the Salish Sea, this is a 1-minute teaser for my full 2-hour film featuring wild Pacific octopus and Ruby octopus. From babies the size of a pea to full-grown giants. No narration, no captions—just octopuses doing octopus things in the cold, emerald waters of British Columbia.

You’ll see them hunt, change color, fight, crawl, vanish, and interact with their environment in ways that might leave you with a new appreciation for these incredible creatures. Great to play in the background—or just zone out and watch them move.

I love the sentence “octopuses doing octopus things”.

I didn’t watch all the video yet, but well done. You say is a 1 minute teaser but for what I see, the link is for the full length video.

Octopuses have always fascinated me.

Thank you! Yes, that's the full video, the teaser is on reddit, I just copied my post from there.

Very well put together. A joy to watch.

Absolutely brilliant and beautifully captured @ScubaBC . Loved diving in BC, the colours and the creatures are incredible.

I hope it's okay to show at my studio to show visitors how beautiful these creatures are.

Have a great weekend and look forward to seeing more of your work.
