Maarten - Cameraman / Producer
From: the Netherlands
Hi I am Maarten and I am the onboard cameraman for this leg of
Defending Our Oceans. I work as a producer / cameraman at our
international office in Amsterdam co-ordinating our video output on
oceans issues. This means I am usually at the receiving end of footage
coming in from the Esperanza. It makes it all the more exciting to now
finally be onboard during the expedition!
For my sins, I have also presented the first web video produced during
this leg. It has already generated some (positive) feedback although my
mother wrote back to say she could tell we have a really good cook
onboard. Great.
I hope to get up close and personal again with the tuna, I love them -
especially grilled on the barbecue! But I have been good - the last time
I ate them it was a locally, sustainably caught fish and it has been
years ago. It was very impressive to film them through the net of the
tuna cage yesterday, but it would be much better to swim with them in
the wild.

You should be doing something that involves more time in front of the camera not behind it!
