Treehouse Films provides professional underwater filming services for films, television, reality shows, music videos, commercials, social media and more. From swimming pools to open-water locations, we offer specialist underwater cinematography for all types of productions. Our communication system allows the director or cinematographer at the surface to speak directly to the diver underwater, and vice versa. We can also provide a live feed from the underwater camera, allowing the surface team to see exactly what the camera is filming in real time.
