20. Perfect Pole-cam

It goes with out saying that a film about oysters would not be complete without underwater footage. But underwater footage is not so easy to get. Even the thought of getting it is not particularly appealing given that Bluff water is FREEEEZZZZZING!

That's why they invented the pole-cam. For the filmilliterate, it is a camera on a long pole, and much better idea than swimming, if you ask me.

It is the best of both worlds. I get to stand in the warm sun and film under water all at the same time. Perfect!
