Sailfish Drama was captured at Isla Mujeres, Mexico in February 2010. The footage was captured with a RED One camera, using a Tokina 10-17mm lens, in a Deep RED Gates housing. The video was down-sampled to 720 24p from the original 4K RED files. The music was composed by Alan Williams for the IMAX feature, Island of the Sharks, which I directed in 1998. Howard Hall

    Isla Mujeres- one of my favorite places on Earth and with this new perspective you have shown me my love for the area continues to grow. One more month and I will be back in those waters. There was pure intensity watching the hunt. What a fabulous school of sailfish you were on. I really loved the underneath shots looking up at the baitfish being sandwiched between two predators. bills or beaks, choose your fate :) Thanks for sharing. I love your work and I am so glad you are shooting on RED.

    After forming a Blue Ribbon Commission and ordering a full investigation, it is the conclusion of this panel that it sucks to be a baitfish.

    The baitfish should have ran the second they heard the forboding French horns! ;)

    Spectacular footage....

    Such an amazing spectacle to catch on film...thank-you for sharing Howard! Were you at all nervous or concerned about being hit or impaled with all those swords in the water around you?

    I wasn't worried because the baitballs were small and the sailfish could see us. I have been in larger baitballs where marlin were feeding. If you got inside those larger baitballs it was quite dangerous because the marlin couldn't see you.

    Thanks for your comment, and all the nice comments others have written.
