Are YOU the Face of Australia?

The Underwater Channel(UWC) in association with PADI is looking for you!

The Underwater Channel (www.theunderwaterchannel.tv) and PADI (www.PADI.com) are looking to light up diving in Australia for UWC’s viewers around the world! To do so we have launched an international competition to find an experienced and knowledgeable Aussie diver with bags of confidence and charisma to join The Underwater Channel’s team of presenters (aka Faces!) around the world to become the Face of Australia. After an initial pre-selection of 6 semi-finalists a series of TV programs will be broadcast on UWC with a UWC/PADI judging panel who will feature the videos and comment (in a friendly fashion) upon the applications! The viewing public will then be invited to vote, first for the semi-finalists and finally for the winner! The Face of Australia will be chosen by our viewers

To qualify as the Face of Australia you will need 2 free days a month, an experienced underwater videographer to work with and an in-depth knowledge and easy access to diving on the Australian east coast. If you think you have what it takes we’ll need a cv and video showreel telling us why you qualify by end of February 2009.

There is a promotional video accompanying the competition.

For further details of the competition (and to watch/share the video) please see: http://www.theunderwaterchannel.tv/FaceofAustralia.page

Diving Papua New Guinea - Milne BayDiving Papua New Guinea - Milne Bay
It is one of the few places left in the world where a diver can see macro critters, pelagics, and big stuff, as well as fantastic soft and hard corals. The often misused and abused adjective “pristine” is actually appropriate here, due to low fishing pressure in the area in comparison to other areas of the Coral Triangle, no dynamite fishing, and thanks to a system implemented by dive resorts whereby local reef "owners" receiving a small fee for every diver that visits "their" reef. As a result elders make sure that the reefs are not fished.
