"Just thought I'd let you know that my husband's family in Alberta LOVED your Aliens of the Sea film as well. They each watched it at least twice while we were visiting. The seadragons were, of course, the stars!
Aliens of the Sea is our son Aaron's favourite film, and he asks to see it at least once a day!!! I always watch it with him. I really love the musical soundtrack on the film, especially when the seadragons are on. The music really feels like a celebration of these wonderful creatures. You did a wonderful job choosing the music, that's for sure!!!"

"It is (hands down!) the most visually beautiful nature video I have ever had the pleasure of viewing! It took me a moment to get used to the lack of constant voice-overs usually present in nature videos. Once I got used to the silent voices, it was wonderful to be able to watch the animals and listen to the incredible soundtrack...to just sit back and watch was such a treat! Your DVD is truly a work of art.... I was totally spellbound as I watched, and I'm eager to watch it again and again! One can't help but care about the sea creatures you filmed and our effect on them. I am so glad to have had this close-up view, especially of the sea dragons! "

Maureen Smith - customer
"...(I) have watched it several times. I want to congratulate you on the quality of the colour, music and narrative - it really is superb. Even my 4 year old grandson was mesmerised by the wide array of marine life - some we have never seen before."

Geoff Hancock - customer
"I have watched it twice, listened while it ran - once, and am currently planning to see it again before the end of the day. Wow - truly inspiring."

Cora Payne - customer
"It's great! I love those weedy seadragons!"

Joe Militello - customer
We were both quite impressed! Nice job! You got some truly awesome shots, and the music was great... Very impressive on all counts.

...My wife and I sat down last night and watched it.
"FANTASTIC"
Your cinematography is just splendid. I'll be watching it again this morning. I can appreciate all the hours and effort that went into the production. My congratulations to you and your production team. The writing is top notch, the music second to none, and the camera work, well, just the best!...
