Water Mages

The first day we filmed at the dolphin pens was nothing short of magical.  After all the Dolphin Encounter sessions are finished for the day, the dolphins at UNEXSO (where we are filming) are all put together into a large main pen in the center of the facility.  We were filming a scene in one of the small bordering pens, and the crew was staged on the narrow docks that separate the small pens from the main large one.  While filming at UNEXSO we are under strict guidelines in regards to interaction with the dolphins.  They are off limits (no touching, calling, etc.) when not in the presence of a trainer.  We are actually supposed to ignore them altogether.  Apparently the dolphins had other ideas.  For the entire afternoon they would swim over to our group, popping up their heads to look at the strange scraggle of film gypsies, chattering and whistling and casting their spell over every single one of us.
