I stumbled upon this film, short, commercial. I don't know what to call it. Essentially a Sony commercial for its latest cinema camera. The Sony Burano.
The director and director of photography is Emmanuel Lubezki (three-time Oscar winner for cinematography). 

The photography is very documentary. All very nice but the underwater shots left me a bit puzzled. Surely it was a stylistic choice to leave the images absolutely without contrast? Sony, in the comments, says that the whales were raising a lot of sablefish and the water was murky. Mah.

There is also a behind the scenes. for us divers, the video operator is Marcelo Johan Ogata AKA BugDreamer. Nauticam housing seems to be the latest universal housing..

Nice find Davide - true, it's a little odd....

 

Quite a contrast with the land footage indeed -  maybe this came from the idea to balance things out / merge with the drone shots of the whales?

 

 

 

Nice looking camera and op otherwise!

 

 

On parting, here is a touching scene that will resonate in the aching hearts of many camera enthusiasts.... 😍
