"Dive Masters" Web-Series Going Forward

[Jason McAnear]

Hello Divers!

So it's been an uphill battle to get this going and a lot of you have given feedback in several posts... THANKS!!
I know the idea of another "Reality" show get's some folks... um... Emotional. Whether you like the format or not (and lot of you do not), what I am putting together will be a bit different from typical cable t.v. programming. First of all, this ain't Hollywood.... it will actually be real. No made up fights and shouting just to create fake tension or drama. The folks involved "gasp" actually like each other and work well together. We're gonna show real divers and dive professionals prepping, learning and going diving. Now... a typical OW class doesn't sound all that exciting... but it is fun, educational and the personalities involved are some real characters.

What is exciting and trust me, if you've ever done it you know, is showing advanced certifications such as Rescue Diver (my fave), Deep Diver and Dive Master... well... you'll just have to see it to believe it. We'll also be showcasing new dive equipment, and hopefully be able to begin production in time for the Utila Dive Festival in August. Now THAT will be an awesome show!

What I need right now is the support of scubaboard community members. I ask you to go to this website,
Dive Masters by Jason McAnear — Kickstarter
take a look and if you like what you see, share it out with your friends. If you REALLY like it, consider backing the project and hopefully we'll get the funding needed to start creating the series (and we're not looking for a lot). Also, if you will be in Roatan in July-Sept. you could take part in the filiming, how's that? If you'd like more info, shoot me a message.

Thanks,
JMac
