Zimy believes that the Insta360 X4 allows him to analyze specific behaviors and better understand tiger sharks. He hops the breathtaking images and footage that he captured will spark an interest in sharks in people’s hearts worldwide. Since the X4 can record in 360º, it allowed him to reframe the shot in post-production, focusing purely on interacting with the sharks.

Since I was young, I’ve always been passionate about sharks. They’ve always represented THE apex predator, and they have always fascinated me. The more I started learning about them, the more I understood that they were disappearing at an alarming rate due to commercial and industrial fishing,” said Zimy, a Swiss filmmaker, director, DoP, photographer and conservationist.
