The shark was pretty startled and I got it all on film. Corben and Marks have turned down high paying work to produce their own shark doc. They're amazing animals. We felt it was important to tell that story. White Sharks Outside the Cage will revolve around Marks' 'hands-on' research and interactions with great whites, as well as the animal's ecology.
Some sharks gape back, while others turn and run.
They also hope to include a sequence of South African white sharks hunting their favorite prey, the South Cape fur seal. We'll follow them in our skiff using polecams to show them hunting and eating. While most of Corben's prior filming of great whites has been on film, Outside the Cage will be shot on video, in high definition. Besides wanting to shoot on the highest quality format possible, I like hdcam because it's quiet and not intrusive. They also plan to have Marks deliver some of his presentation underwater.
