In De Nieuwe Kust, the Oosterschelde forms the backdrop to what Dutch nature is; a world shaped by human hands, to which nature tries to adapt. The beautiful images of the Zeeland underwater world and the land around it were made by Ronald Faber and René van der Laan. Both speak on Duikvaker about their passion, filming in Zeeland.

Ronald Faber

Ronald Faber is a PADI Divemaster. Since 2014 I have been delving into underwater videography. Initially I made short documentary-like productions. From the start, my films won prizes at international film festivals, which greatly stimulated my enthusiasm. In 2017, 2018 and 2019 I became Dutch champion of the NOB and in 2016 I won silver at the European championship of the CMAS. After the 2019 CMAS World Championship (4th place), I started to focus more and more on the production of longer films. The film 'De Levende Delta' was released in 2019. I made the documentary 'Sepia' for Omroep Zeeland in 2021 and recently 'De Nieuwe Kust'. In the meantime, I also wrote the book 'Underwater Filmer Handbook' for the NOB (2023) and I am now a fully certified drone pilot/cameraman.
