    Jeff chats to... Craig Waller, Underwater Lighting Technician on Black Panther: Wakanda Forever

    In this exclusive Zoom interview, Jeff Goodman, Scubaverse Editor-at-Large, chats to Craig Waller, Underwater Lighting Technician on Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Craig is a Key Grip and Lighting Director with 10,000s of hours of Set Experience. In Craig's own words: I started my career when I was in my first year of college.  I always had that creative side of the brain that needed to be followed as a career.  I thought that would be in designing engineering pieces but wasn’t happy about the idea of an office cubicle and drafting table. I accidentally found my way onto a big commercial job for a week and decided “THIS IS WHAT I WANT TO DO”.   I made it my career after that. This is a quick list of recent and big projects in my 35 yrs of TV / Film / Photography. Most Recently: “Black Panther 2” - UW Lighting Technician / 2nd Unit Underwater Team “Stranger Things” Season 4 - UW Lighting Technician / 2nd Unit Underwater Team “Suicide Squad 2” - UW Gaffer / 2nd Unit Underwater Team NASCAR / FOX Sports 1 - Network TV Lighting Director - 7 years / 700 races of Live BIG track TV shows 10,000s of commercials / music videos / tv shows I started diving when I was 18 years old with my OW and then AOW with PADI. I was diving with lots of friends in the late 80s and early 90s and then moved onto Kayaking. I got my daughter into diving when she turned 14 and have picked up where I left off. I have approx 5000 dives now and spend most of my free time diving.
