Water operations in Canada present unique challenges, especially in the realm of underwater work.

This certification applies to anyone involved in underwater work; including camera operators, grips, electricians, stunt performers and riggers, and any others breathing compressed gas while submerged.

Our team of DCBC commercial divers can provide a full range of services to support your production; from SCUBA diving water safety personnel, to surface-supplied hard hat diving for vehicle recoveries. We ensure your production can continue smoothly without compromising safety, while filming in unique locations in and around the water.

Additionally, our team includes Underwater Camera Technicians and Camera Operators; who have worked internationally on high-profile projects, including Discovery Channel’s Shark Week, other documentaries, and many TV shows and movies over the years.
