Mike hosted shows for BBC, Shark Week, Discovery Channel, and Blue Planet; together they made Shark Encounters (that she shot), Incredible Suckers, The Octopus Show, and others. “There’s a lot of home videos, too,” she says, “scripted with the kids, and they are some of the funniest moments.” Currently, she and her crew have the documentary down to a 4-to-5hour assembly. She believes they’ll probably have a feature-length film at the end but that, “If it needs to be a short great hour, then that’s what’ll it be. It’ll let us know.” Kickstarter Mimi launched a kickstarter campaign on November 12. She needs to raise $200,000, but the immediate kickstarter goal is $50,000, just to make sure they’d be able to use whatever they raised. “If you don’t reach your goal, the money has to go back,” she explains.

Esther Shubinski, an L.A. filmmaker, UCSB student Aaron Huelsman, and an advisory board featuring Paul Atkins, Gretchen Rennell Court, and Alastair Fothergill. Two-time Academy-Award-winning editor Arthur “Artie” Schmidt is helping put it together (he worked with Bob Zemeckis for nearly 30 years and won his Oscars for Who Framed Roger Rabbit, and Forrest Gump). In just two days (as of Monday, November 14), they’d already raised $18,302, so it looks as though they’ll easily meet that first $50,000 target. Donation amounts range from as little as $10 (which gets you “a big thank you.” Commitments go up from there: $25 gets you a rubber WWMD (What Would Mike Do?) bracelet, along with a digital download of the film and a “thank you” on the website and social media. Other levels include a DVD, a Diving Deep T-shirt, and a poster; for $250 you’ll get a “thank you” on screen, in the film credits, and $500 entitles one to a limited-edition Mike deGruy nature print. A $10,000 donation toward the final production of the film will get you a precious 12-ounce Styrofoam cup that had been reduced to a misshapen and miniscule size by pressure at 8,000 feet below the surface. It has been painted on the outside by Mike and then put into the manipulator arm of the sub. Mike wrote the location and depth on
