I too am an environmentally conscience person so this movie is awesome ! Those people with Rob gave alot to educate the world for an issue that effects us all. If they can read this, I would love to help out on a shoot of the same environmental purpose. I'm currently a production intern...so let me know. "these are people who care more about matters outside of themselves. these are people willing to sacrifice for a purpose. these are amazing poeple, and these are people the world relies upon." let's all help out, even if it's just alittle, it helps: recycle, turn off lights, don't blast water faucets, use less chemicals, shop organically etc,. HELP !! ; )
Beautifully shot. Loved sharks as a kid and still do.
It feels good to write.
