Under the Hull with Alan Van Gysen

Kevin Miller sat down with Cape Town filmmaker Alan Van Gysen @alanvangysen in person during a trip to South Africa, so John Brooks sits this one out. Alan traces his path from a waterproof Minolta and selling prints to bodyboarding friends, through 20 years shooting stills for Zigzag, to co-founding Now Now Media @nownowmedia with Will Bendix @will.bendix. They discuss Chasing the Unicorn and the power of film to lift communities, close encounters with great whites, and Alan free-diving under a drifting charter boat in the Mentawais to cut a fouled propeller free. Plus: bringing aloha back to crowded lineups.
