Project: Wonder Reef Tourism & Events Queensland 2024
In 2024 Descent Productions ran a project to promote the Gold Coast’s newest artificial reef, Wonder Reef. Tourism & Events Queensland required a powerhouse underwater film team to capture a range of footage and stills that could be used within domestic tourism campaigns to drive ocean tourism to the Gold Coast. This project was run over one day, with DOP Tom Park, and second shooter and photographer Clayton Utz.
Our Hero Shots
Our primary goal on this shoot was to drive ocean tourism to the Gold Coast, with our focus being on promoting the Gold Coast as base for adventure and ocean exploration, rather than focusing on the specific wildlife or diving itself. These hero still images have been used in billboards across Queensland, and at the Australian Tourism Exchange 2024.















A Short Social Video
In addition to our hero still images, and a video highlight reel, the team at Tourism & Events Queensland also wanted a short social clip to be produced. This is the 25 second social short we landed on!
