Let’s be honest, alligators have been getting some really bad press lately. Especially after the incident at Walt Disney World people starting jumping on the “I hate alligators” bandwagon. I’ve been around these amazing reptiles since I was a kid and can assure you they have no agenda (like some people do) and are simply just trying to survive. Can they be dangerous? Of course. But you have nothing to fear if you keep a safe distance. Even if you do venture close to an alligator chances are they will dive under the water as they are naturally afraid of people.
“In the Hall of the Swamp King” is a short film I did that I hope showcases the majesty and beauty of these prehistoric creatures. They have survived since the dawn of time and were here long before us.

“Fly Away’ – An aerial view of the Florida Everglades. The Florida Everglades has the nickname “The River of Grass” and for a good reason.
