- Chen 's obsession with the conjecture goes back to his high school years, when his teacher stood in front of the class
- Chen was one of the targets.
Chen .
Chen , god will be separate.
Chen has been selected as TEDIndia fellow, a TED senior fellow, an Echoing Green fellow, and a Rainier Arnold fellow.
Cheney, for instance, Dick Cheney was-- the common technique he used was to leak something to "The New York Times," and then three days later when it was reported
Cheney's house in Wyoming is filled with trophies and war crime memorabilia.
Cheng: How shallow is it, and is it natural light? Itís very shallow. Itís like ten feet deep. It is natural light in the background, but strobe-filled in the foreground. This
Cheng: Mine is slightly negative. Historically, manufacturers have not paid attention to buoyancy, and they should. Video housing manufacturers do pay quite a lot of attention to buoyancy.
Cheng: So the strobesóThe question is about strobes. The strobe do not go under the lens.
Cheng: Yeah, the strobes are attached to the housing by articulating arms, so we can position them wherever we want. Yeah. So hereís the final shot. It looks like this
Cheng: It was on a DSLR. I mean, the shots that I was taking, yeah.
Cheng: Oh, the video. I think they shot on a camcorder. A friend shot. Yeah, just camcorder. Okay, back to wide angle stuff. I think Ricardo
Cheng: Rebreathers? Rebreathers are an option. I have never taken them to Galapagos.
Cheng: Oh. Shops for re-. Yeah. I would not trust another rebreather. Yeah. Bring your own rebreather. The problem with rebreathers is theyíre deadly when there are accidents.
Cheng: I donít know if he has a snorkel on, but heís out of air. So heís in dive gear, but on the surface. Yeah. So these sharks are the biggest fish in the
Cheng: So these areóThese sharks are five to seven feet long. Maybe some eight footers. Theyíre not very big. This is that moment that they snap their jaws shut.
Cheng: We are baiting them using fishing lines with no hooks. We tie a little piece of fish on. You can see a little bit of water coming off of the piece of fish on the top
Cheng: The questionís about the photo on the upper left. It is a shipwreck. Itís called Sugar Wreck, a very shallow shipwreck full of life, so itís a great place to dive or
Cheng: The difference is youíre on the surface, and sharks pretty much always investigate anything floating on the surface. So if you want to get attention from a shark, just jump
Cheng: Good chance. Well, no. Iíve tried pretty hard down there. Iíve escaped without ever having contact. Of course, I have a large camera between me and the animals.
Cheng: Yeah. Domestic pigs that have gone feral. These are also shot in the Bahamas.
Cheng: Whatís the trick to the split shot? The trick is to use a large dome port. The more surface area you have, the less chop in the water will affect the shot. Itís also
Cheng: Why not acrylic? I just havenít had as much luck with acrylic. I feel like it doesnít sheet as well for some reason. Iím not sure why. Maybe a brand new acrylic
Cheng: Isla Mujeres. This is a place. Itís a little island off of Cancun that feels still very local. This is the touristy strip, so itís not that bad, and even in the tourist
Cheng: We run this tripóWetpixel runs this trip every year. There are some other organizations that do as well. If youíre more casual about how you want to approach it, you can just
Cheng: Free diving. Youíre not allowed to scuba dive here, so it isóAnd really, if youíre diving, you canít swim. If you have all that gear on, itís very hard to
Cheng: The question is about whether heís still there or not. I have not seen any recent pictures of Scar. They do leaveóMales leave the area where they grew up when they get
Cheng: Itís really easy to turn it on. Itís hard to ensure that youíre in focus.
Cheng: Do I do any diving in Monterey? I do some diving in Monterey, but not as much as Iíd like to. Iíve actually done more diving in Alaska than I have in Monterey.
Cheng: Radio triggers for the flash? We donít use radio triggers. We use either electrical sync cords or optical sync. You have to trigger the camera somehow. For a while, when digital
Cheng: My most dangerous encounter ever? I donít think my most dangerous encounters have been wildlife related. Itís mostly been in a situation where youíre in
Cheng: Iíve done some rebreather diving. I donít own one, but I typically will dive it in Papua New Guinea where thereís a boat that I go on that has them.
Cheng: Itís mostly that I just donít own one. I havenít invested in one.
Cheng: Well, I think if you donít use them a lot, if youíre not very comfortable with them, they can be dangerous. I love them. I mean, rebreathers, for those of you who
Cheng: The questionís about awareness and conservation around sharks. I work really closely with an organization called Shark Savers, which is a conservation organization
Cheng: Iím not directly involved in a lot of theóin the policy stuff, but what we noticed in the last few years is that a lot of countries and states are now banning shark fins. California
Cheng: Are animals sensitive to light?
Cheng: Yeah. Most animals are affected by light in some way. This is all, again, highly controversial as well, because, I mean, if you image a giant strobe flashing in your
Cheng: Do I shoot landscapes underwater, oró Female #3: Yes, or {inaudible}?
Cheng: Oh, okay. Yeah, I shoot a lot of reefscapes, reef scenes that are colorful and show that thereís a lot of life in the water. And the occasional interesting topography,
Cheng: You have to be super far away to photograph and entire wreck, yes, typically.
Cheng: All right. Okay, thanks.
Chennai, which used to be called Madras. And this is taken from the balcony of a guest house where I stayed. You can see these monkeys are very adorable, but it turns out that they
Cheney sent you a video baby panda bear sneezing hey W this is 10 times cuter than the one you sent me you have to
Cheney uh they have made Nixon look much
- But Chen faced a dilemma.
Mong Chen Jiang from the BBC World Services Global China unit told us more about the film.
And Chen and I were having a quick conversation about this earlier.
