Dive Zeroʼs history
We created Dive Zero 5 years ago with a vision of creating a portal for divers to access creative and fresh scuba media. We started off with Dive Zero Virtual Magazine, where we would visit and film great dive locations through out the world, and sell the videos in a magazine format on DVD. We found that DVDʼs do not do very well these days, so we took on the same concept of a "magazine format", and pioneered online internet scuba TV where
divers could access everything for no charge. Dive Zero TV currently has gone through 3 versions and runs over 200 hours of scuba videos with 20 channels to choose from, with 10,000 page-views per month and growing.
DIVE ZEROPRODUCTIONSTODAYS MEDIA CHOICE FOR DIVERS
We currently are about to release Version 4, where channels will be "spawned" allowing specific material to be chosen and viewed. (Please watch this for an example) , Mike Edwards, our TV host describes in the link on
how it all works and comes together and the benefits of “branding” your product on Dive Zero TV.
We also provide the option to include monthly write-ups in our downloadable TV Guide, and promote your channel through The Dive Village , Dive Zero.com , and all other media outlets of Dive Zero.
We have traveled and filmed for the Malaysian Tourism board, The Island of Roatan, and the BVI. We have also created “A day in the life”, an hour and a half show that takes an in-depth look at people in the industry, a TV pilot
shot in Kuala Lumpur and a 3 month booking to film in Thailand and Indonesia.
Advertising on Dive Zero TV is as simple as purchasing a single “clickable” banner toowning a complete channel!
We also specialize in complete video production of your facilities to produce a powerful product to view on Dive Zero TV. Our professional crew consists of under water videographers and photographers, a professional actor to host
your production, and a sound engineer to make the audio crystal clear. What sets us apart from the others is that we love to keep it fresh and mingle and have fun with guests.
Diving is our passion, and so is filming and video production, we put these two together to help create your vision for an inexpensive, but professional video production!
