“To create a film of this quality, the museum
needed the very best in ocean film making. They chose Feodor Pitcairn Productions to produce it.”


SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION NATIONAL MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY OCEAN HALL HIGH-BAY PRODUCTION



Feodor Pitcairn Productions has been engaged to create the signature feature of the Smithsonian’s upcoming Ocean Hall, opening in September of 2008. This challenging project incorporates multiple projections of HD footage and existing architectural detail in a project that truly exemplifies what “site-specific HD installation” at it’s best is all about.



Featuring stunning footage shot at locations including Indonesia, Galapagos, the Maldives, Hawaii, the Channel Islands off of California, the Azores, Belize, French Polynesia, and the Cayman Islands. The final production will include sequences of whale sharks disappearing into milky clouds of spawn, massive gatherings of hammerhead sharks, socializing sperm whales, and enigmatic manta rays gathered together at a cleaning station.
