Who am I and what is Sub-Marine?
Hi, my name is Callum. I am the owner of Graphic Vibes and content provider for the Sub-Marine Newsletter. Sub-Marine (short for: Subject-Marine) is a newsletter created to keep you in the know about everything Marine. Whether that be the latest updates on Russian Yachts being seized as the conflict unfolds between them and Ukraine, how maritime designers and specifiers are changing the meaning of “Luxury Travel”, or how Industry professionals plan to tackle global warming and make cruises / yachting more eco-friendly. All you need to know in one place!
At Graphic Vibes we offer professional Photography, Videography, Drone Operations and more to the Marine Industry.
Our specialist background in Marine Interiors, along with our passion for Professional Media, is the root to the creation of Graphic Vibes. Having seen newbuild and refit projects through from the design and production of IMO Products, to marketing and selling them, we feel, who would be better fitted to come onboard and capture maritime businesses in action than us? Compared to your day to day media companies, we believe we have an enhanced vision on what you as a company, and your target audience want to see. I have also personally experienced the life as a deckhand onboard multiple SuperYachts around the Mediterranean, giving us that extra inside industry knowledge.
With state of the art equipment and a vast arsenal of experience we believe we can capture superlative content as a powerful marketing tool, specifically aimed at the Marine Industry.
Recent Projects & Lesson’s Learned:
In the last week at Graphic Vibes we have been working in multiple locations with a lot of drone requests. One of our client’s have involved us in a potential TV Show. Although our background and main focus is the Marine Industry, we enjoy taking on challenges of a great variety. For this we travelled to the famous town of Glastonbury and got to soak in the gorgeous sunshine, surrounded by endless countryside. Another drone project we took on this week was in the City of Bath, famous for being built on an inactive volcano and having lots of Roman history. Who could complain about that.
We also had the opportunity to speak with a well established Yacht Broker earlier this week in London, who is interested in working with us to meet their marine media needs. We’ll keep you updated as this relationship grows!
This week’s lesson: “Trust the timing of your life”
- This powerful and insightful quote resonates deeply with us as we always strive for more. Although it’s good to aim high, sometimes you need to ‘trust the process’.
