Lori provides the location

For a film shoot, Lori Pailet provides the location and works with the production from there. The categories the school lists are promos, pitches, TV segments, film and still photography.

The school's pool is 60 feet long and 15 feet wide, heated to about 88°F all year. Production details, including where a shoot would take place and for how long, are settled with Lori directly. Text the school at the number below.

Swimmers by specific request

AquaSkills can also provide swimmers on a shoot, by specific request. The request goes through Lori, who also sets the price.

Every instructor at the school is an American Red Cross certified lifeguard, trained in CPR, AED and First Aid. Costs are by quote, and the school does not post a rate card.

Seven credits the school lists

The school lists its camera work on its own site, from an underwater camera agency pitch to a Telemundo credit. They are set out as a list just below, exactly as the school names them.

The New York Times entry is the 2014 feature “A Liquid Fear,” and the two CBS News entries name Alex Denis and Ann Mercogliano. Each line is printed below the way the school prints it.

Shoots are quoted by text or phone. Text (646) 724-7024 or call (212) 206-6976.
