Wild Caught (swordfish documentary 2012)

Cognitive Dissonant Studios takes you on a journey aboard sword fishing vessel Jaxon T where Captain Hoang Gia Anh demonstrates how some of the largest commercially caught fish in the world are boarded and then brought to auction for top dollar. This is a rare glimpse into the lives and perspectives of the fisherman who make the Honolulu Fish Auction possible.

At the very beginning of the video, it shown the image of the fish market and shots of fish transferring and selling. Then comes the lead and frames he chat with the director before they start taking shots on the sea. Light is wonderful when taking a shot outdoor, but that in the cabin was that good. Personally, I do not think this documentary could complete their filming in one simple day. That is why some of the frames have a large difference in light. There are also lots of frames taken under water in this documentary. It shown the way how a fisherman dress, eat and work; also shown different kinds of fishes and place they store fishes in different ways. Fish-eye lens and wide-angle lens is widely used in this video, which made the film good. I think I need support from the University of Lens.
