Cinematographer Stories
"The audience will just freak because you are seeing the master super
wide shots of the Titanic and we move up to the doorway, down the hall and
around the corner and the set is so beautiful. Around the corner, you enter
the first-class cabin, it is the core and fiber of the story. The fireplace,
the wreckage, the safe that they eventually get to. All of these things
are as if I was in a wreck swimming with scuba at night. It magically transported
me to the real wreck. I wouldn’t really know the difference. So Cameron
once again championed a whole new watermark and Titanic will carry a look
and authentic fabric which has never been done before.How many directors
do you know who would go to the Titanic itself and jump into a 23-foot long
submarine with a seven foot diameter interior space, along with three guys
then log 150-200 hours on the bottom two miles down? "

U.S. Signs Agreement to Protect RMS Titanic Wreck Site
June 18, 2004 - Today the United States signed an international agreement that
will lead to increased protection of the RMS Titanic wreck site. The four nations
most closely associated with the Titanic -- Canada, France, the United Kingdom
and the U.S. -- negotiated the agreement, beginning in 1997. Concerted action
by these countries would effectively foreclose financing for and the technical
ability to conduct unregulated salvage and other potentially harmful activities.
Though it rests 12,000 feet deep, the Titanic continues to capture the attention
of people around the globe. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association
(NOAA) recently sponsored a scientific expedition to the wreck that included
explorer Robert D. Ballard, the man who discovered it in 1985. He attributed
newfound damage to the wreck to submarines landing on the deck for salvage operations,
filming, and tourism.
The agreement does not apply to the existing collection of 6,000 Titanic artifacts
that have been salvaged pursuant to admiralty court orders, but it is consistent
with those orders and current scientific principles of historic and cultural
resource conservation.
