Ken O’Sullivan has been a documentary filmmaker, cameraman and ocean conservationist for eighteen years, producing natural history and creative documentaries all set in Ireland about the ocean, landscape and our ancient culture relating to these things in Ireland.

He has produced, directed and filmed natural history documentary series for RTÉ & TG4 and worked as a freelance cameraman / director for BBC NHU, CBC Canada, ITV and cinematographer for TV commercials and drama projects.

Ken is a passionate marine conservationist and heavily involved in conservation projects on sharks, skates and rays in Ireland, particularly in the highly unique Tralee Bay, Co. Kerry, where his family lived as fishermen and farmers for 250 years and where Ken spent the summers of his youth.

He works very hard to contribute to cetacean (whale & dolphin) research in Ireland and internationally, working closely with academic institutions and conservation organisations. He donated all of his work to education and his 2019 series Ireland’s DEEP ATLANTIC is now part of the Junior Cycle Geography & Business Studies curriculum.

Ken’s book: “Stories From The Deep” was critically acclaimed for its honesty and lyrical descriptions of our marine world.
