Sizzle reel cut from an August 2024 shoot for NJDEP's local seafood and environmental awareness campaign. Directed by Rob Markopoulos. Agency was Nth Degree Media. Sweet Amalia Market and Kitchen operates an aquaculture farm in Cape May, supplying oysters to top Philadelphia restaurants. Member of the Northeast Organic Farming Association. We shot with a small crew—AC, sound, gaffer, key, and PA—working around the tide schedule in August heat. The oyster beds stretched across exposed flats at low tide, then disappeared under water hours later. The hip waders got us just as soaked from sweat as they would have from the bay. Shot on DJI Ronin 4D with Zeiss Batis glass and drone. Amazing oysters at Sweet Amalia's market.
