I'm thinking I will shoot video of one of the next families we do this with, from start to finish.....then post a full lenth 20-25 minute version and a 5 minute highlights version.
But what might be even more appropriate, would be doing VIDEO Interviews of Singer Island Beach goers --- where we ask them what activities they will be enjoying on this vacation, and if they are non-divers, ASK THEM WHY THEY HAVE NEVER TRIED DIVING. Then hear their response when we tell them how they could have a DIVE EXPERIENCE IN A WORLD FAMOUS PLACE, with NO Tank on their back--just a hose going 20 feet down...and 5 minutes of training/overview..then they are underwater and breathing, with an Instructor right next to them and taking them on a 20 minute tour....
While I would like having this, the idea of stopping people on he beach for an interview, is obnoxious to me, and I would not enjoy doing this kind of interview. So for the moment, all we have is the known failure of ALL scuba advertising to attract significant numbers of the general population...

Okay, I’m all over this video idea.
Scene: Beach, clear sunny day, water slick calm. Beach Volley Ball game going on with 20 somethin hot-bods. A father and boy (appears age 12) carrying a boogie board. Background sounds of typical fun beach day. Mother and daughter gather shells.
Boy: “Dad this s*cks. There’s no waves,.”
Father : “Lets go find some shells with mom”
Boy: “Awww, Can’t we do something fun? We should have stayed at Disney World.
Deep voiced professional announcer breaks in: But wait! You can have fun
Scene switches to a couple of Bay Watch type Life Guards pulling a Tooka to the water
Intro Song Melody to “Surfin Safari” by the Beach Boys
Lyrics
Lets learn tooka now
Everybodys diving wow
Come on in the water with me…..
Okay, it's still a work in progress.
