Our unique studio provides specialized cinematography in a controlled environment independent of weather and sea conditions. We can approach the smallest objects and employ complex filming techniques that are nearly impossible to achieve in the field. For natural history projects our attention goes towards recreating dynamic natural-looking scenery in our modular aquariums.

The current trends in the media industry are exceptionally resolution and colour-depth hungry. Our in-depth knowledge of the digital media, biology, and optics guarantees out-of-this world images that can satisfy even the needs of the bleeding edge display technologies.

BioQuest Studios team is highly experienced in the coordination and support of underwater productions from beneath polar ice to tropical seas. With a full range of permits for filming within the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park we have access to some of the world’s most diverse and spectacular underwater sites.

Acquiring images in new situations involves solving a range of problems on the spot and constructing custom equipment. Every job and project poses unique requirements and challenges. Both scientific imaging and natural history production demand knowledge in a variety of disciplines.

Most of the BioQuest Studios equipment is built in-house. The range covers multi-axis motion control systems, vibration isolation, optical components, perfusion, filming tanks, aquarium system, programmable adjustable-spectrum lights, etc.

Our media library contains visual, artistic, biological, and documentary content. We work on story sequences and are ready to provide with logically organized video segments. The content includes both video and still images.

Focus stacked supermacro is particularly spectacular visual content suitable for projections, displays, and films in 4k and above.

Our growing image library contains high resolution photographs of marine and freshwater topics recorded through dedicated supermacro lenses, research-grade microscopes, and custom-built optical systems. The unique images represent complex optical reconstructions of live animals that preserve colours and details of object in their native state.

Our raw image files contain three-dimensional data that facilitate construction of 3D models.

In addition, we are able to provide access to one of the largest and most diverse stock footage libraries in the world.

BioQuest Studios team has strong ties with the worldwide scientific community, particularly in the coral reef research programs.

We are proud to have been a mission partner of the Tara Pacific Expedition 2016-2018. We participated in a number of outreach programs, including underwater acquisition as well as media production for special events such as the UN Climate Summit closing ceremony, European and South-East Asian political congresses, etc. Through our French association we provided content and images for IUCN, CRIOBE, and a number of institutes and museums around the world.

BioQuest Studios has a close partnership with the Australian Institute of Marine Science. In addition to providing images and content for social media, we have been welcome at the incredibly advanced world-renowned facilities of the Sea Simulator and received tremendous support from their leading researchers.
