 “A teaspoon of seawater can contain over a million living creatures"

In this 6-minute video, Marine biologist, renowned filmmaker and science educator Tierney Thys teamed up with biologist Christian Sardet, graphic designer Noé Sardet and Director Sharif Mirshak. This to create a film designed to ignite wonder and curiosity about this hidden world that underpins our own food chain. Using the story of one fish’s journey from egg to larva to dinner, this stunning video focuses on truly beautiful microphotography and clear explanations of what life is like throughout the ocean. Put this one in HD and run it fullscreen. Note how visually similar the night sky is to these bright, strange scenes of the sea. This video is inspired by the larger Plankton Chronicles documentary series; check out the site for more excellent videos!
