Deepblu Kicks off Motion of the Ocean Video Contest

The social network for ocean enthusiasts seeks the best underwater videographers for its platform. Both contestants and the audience have chances to win.

TAIPEI, April 7th, 2017 – In the last Deepblu video competition in October 2016, contestants entered over a thousand beautiful, funny, interesting, and moving underwater videos. Deepblu, the fastest-growing social network for divers and ocean enthusiasts, is now again looking for the best underwater videographers with a new underwater videography contest.

Themed Motion of the Ocean, the contest seeks to find the videographer that is best able to capture the perpetuity and diversity of motion in Earth’s waters and its inhabitants. The contest will run for four weeks from April 7th, 2017 until May 5th, 2017.

Deepblu users can nominate videos by ‘liking’ them. Each week, the three videos with the most likes are nominated. From the nominees, a winner will be chosen at the end of every week by a professional jury composed of Jeff Goodman, videographer at Scubaverse.com and Marino Palla, founder of Scubashooters.net. The weekly winner will receive a brand-new COSMIQ+ Dive Computer, and each nominee will receive a $149 USD voucher for the Deepblu Shop.

Winning is not limited to the contestants only. Deepblu will also award ‘Thanks for Watching’ awards to the audience. Each week, a Deepblu user who voted for a winning video will win a Deepblu gear bag and at the end of the contest, one voter will win a brand-new COSMIQ+ Dive Computer.
