Welcome To NeverDry!
NeverDry Underwater Videography is located in Bocas Town, on Isla Colon. We have established ourselves as new growing business in Panama and have steadily progressed in the areas of equipment, skills and clients. Neverdry has become Bocas Del Toro's leader in Underwater Videography, and is only looking to grow more from here.
Our company was started by Jennie and Michael who are PADI qualified diving instructors. We run training and internship programs for both dive and surf videographers. We posses high quality digital video cameras and use top of the line video editing software. Our new HD cameras are up and running!

Testimonials
"I honestly wasn't sure what to expect when I signed up for the underwater videography internship with NeverDry Videography, but what I experienced exceeded all of my expectations. Mike and Jen are two of the nicest and happiest people I have ever met. They are both wonderful teachers and remained patient through all of my millions of questions. The NeverDry Videography course far surpassed the PADI specialty requirements, delving deep into editing, producing, and selling actual DVDs. Diving with Jen, who would constantly identify and teach new shooting techniques, and editing with Mike, who is a genius with electronics, quickly made me feel proficient with videography. Because of this course, I now have the skills and confidence to pursue other opportunities involving underwater videography. Thank you Mike and Jen, you have given me so much and I will never forget you!"

"The videographer specialty by NeverDry was really great!! In this course you learn not only the technical aspects of making a under water film like the absorption of light and color, the structure of a diving movie, the handling of the camera and finally the cutting of the material on a computer, you will also become a pro in Buoyancy Control to find your balance and a steady hand under water. But.... I think the best part of all these cool things you will do is the hunt for the rarest animals and the best shots with the videocam. Thanks for a great time and awesome impressions in HD!!"

"I spent two months in Bocas under the caring supervision of Mike and Jen and I couldn't have asked for more help than they gladly provided throughout my whole stay. Great teachers and awesome nightlife guides, they made it a memorable time both under and above the water"
-Scubafred (aka Fredrick Lundquist)-
"It was a week after I graduated from film school that I got an email from the Career Services Department about the Neverdry Internship. I had only been diving a handful of times in my life and never with a camera, but the challenge and adventure they offered was enough to get me. I was not disappointed. Mike and Jen are excellent teachers, both for scuba diving and videography. Each dive improved my film technique or buoyancy, each editing session improved my speed. I worked with Mike and Jen for two months and by the end of it I had learned the skills needed to take my degree in a new direction. Thanks a ton Mike and Jen!"

"After watching everyday a colleague doing videography in the dive shop where I used to work, I decided this was my next dream job! The only problem was not knowing exactly neither where, nor how to start! I found out about the 2 week internship with NeverdryVideo which happened to be exactly what I needed to reach this goal. I learned so much in two weeks! I started from not knowing much about underwater videography to actually getting ready to be a full time videography freelancer in Mexico! This training gave me the basic and some more advanced techniques on how to shoot well underwater as well as how to edit and produce fun videos to watch! I totally loved it and will carry on loving it as this will be my daily routine now. I fully recommend it and would like to say a big Thank You to Jen & Mike who were very helpful for the whole time I was there and who also made it fun!"
