Pushing The Innovation Envelope: Infrared Underwater Photography with Michelle Valberg

Proof That Cinema Can Be Powerful in Just Minutes - "Me Enseña" Surf Film

Behind Me enseña — A Quiet Force in Frames There’s a hushed intensity to Reagan Matthew’s short film Me enseña. It doesn’t grab you with spectacle — it invites you to lean in. Shadows stretch; silence lingers; a gesture, a glance, a flicker of expression carries weight. The narrative feels less like a story told and more like a moment lived, lingering just beyond the edge of one’s attention. Matthew’s voice as a filmmaker is subtle but exacting. He trusts that the camera can convey what words cannot — the unspoken hurt, the tender reckoning, the moment someone learns (or is taught) how fragile our bonds can be. Me enseñabecomes a kind of visual parable: every cut, every hold, every nuanced shift in light or breath is deliberate. In those quiet places, the film finds its emotional gravity. It’s this sensibility — the confidence in restraint, the belief in image over exposition — that marks Me enseña as a work to watch and unpack.

Outex Selected by Lucas Gilman, Nikon, Atomos, and Apple as the Best Underwater Housing Solution to Debut RAW Video Solution

Behind the scenes footage for the world's first consumer RAW Video Pro Res Solution, using the Nikon Z6 Mirrorless Camera, Atomos Ninja, Outex Pro Kit Underwater housing system, and Apple's Pro Res uncompressed RAW video. This is the Best Underwater Cinematography solution for the consumer market. When Nikon, Atomos, and Apple partnered up to showcase the first ever consumer solution for RAW video recording they wanted to do it make a statement. So they asked renowned Adventure photographer Lucas Gilman to create a showcase piece that would highlight this milestone in vivid ways. Lucas used the Nikon Z mirrorless cameras combined with an Atomos Ninja recorder, and Pro Res video to capture the first even consumer solution using native RAW video from capture thru delivery. When it comes to underwater cinematography Lucas quickly realized Outex may be the only solution available in the market. And it turned out to also be the best. Learn more at www.Outex.com
