  • Camera Operator & Photographer Jenny Baumert

    In episode #55 host Brett Stanley chats with Underwater Camera Operator and Photographer Jenny Baumert. 

    Jenny fell in love with underwater photography at the Brooks Institute in California, but quickly moved in to cinematography. She’s worked on commercials and music videos, and just finished up shooting the title sequence for Netflix’s Merpeople docuseries.

    They talk about shooting 1000 frames per second underwater on the phantom high speed camera, how she made the move from camera tech to operator, and how drinking Timothy Leary’s ashes with Susan Sarandon totally changed her visual style.
