One of the highlights will be Ralph White who will present a cinematic trip through several of the greatest underwater finds including pictures of the Titanic, Volcanic Vents, unique deep sea marine life and other tantalizing finds. The History of Deep Sea Exploration: In 1975 Emory Kristof and Ralph White initiated the "Beebe Project" at the National Geographic Society. It was to be a ten year exploration of our planet's depths, which is still on going. They started off in Loch Ness, Scotland looking for the fabled "Nessie", and went on to discover two Revolutionary Wrecks and the oldest U.S.N. / M.I.A's in Lake Ontario. From their to the frozen North and the wreck of the H.S.M. Breadalbane above the Artic Circle. They did the imaging that proved the theory of Plate Tectonics, found the first deep sea volcanic vents, and their unique life form's, which could be the start of life on Earth. We utilized underwater baiting to bring in some of the rarest deepsea animals ever imaged "In Situ", including the largest flesh eating Shark ever photographed, in Suruga Bay, Japan. Also included are deep dives in remote Lake Baikal, Siberia, The Titanic, and many other interesting sites, including the first survey of the USS Arizona, and "Sacred Wells" in the Yucatan of Mexico. In one hour you see three decades of the greatest underwater explorations ever done on our planet!
Ralph White enjoys a very distinguished professional career as an award-winning cinematographer, video cameraman and editor,
with over 30 years of production experience and hundreds of motion picture and television credits to his name.
