Working on Film Sets: Terry Dwyer, Scuba Diver

In 1995, Deep Star in Halifax was contracted by filmmaking giant Lightstorm Entertainment to assist with logistics, locations and marine support services for the film Titanic. It was during this time, that professional diver Terry Dwyer conceived Movie Marine Canada, and since then he and his team have worked on several major motion pictures that were filmed, in part, here in Nova Scotia; including: K-19 The Widowmaker, The Shipping News, and The Weight of Water. Movie Marine Canada also supplied marine support services for the TV Movies: Shattered City: The Halifax Explosion, Blessed Stranger: The Aftermath of Swiss Air Flight 111 and for the Discovery Channel TV Series: High Seas Rescue and Oceans of Mystery. For over eight years, Terry has worked on numerous movie sets as a safety diver for some of Hollywood’s biggest stars, including Harrison Ford, Liam Neeson, Elizabeth Hurley, Sean Penn, Kirstin Dunst, Sara Polley and Kevin Spacey.
