Another project with the amazing team over at know film! For this project we utilized both traditional drones and FPV drones.
Indoor drone filming allows filmmakers to explore unique perspectives and angles that would be challenging or impossible to achieve with traditional camera setups. Drones can effortlessly weave through tight spaces creating dynamic shots in the process. Setting up and tearing down elaborate equipment can be time-consuming, especially when shooting in confined spaces. Drones can be deployed quickly, saving valuable time during production. Their ability to capture multiple angles in a single take reduces the need for extensive reshooting, streamlining the filmmaking process and eliminating the need for large camera jibs and cranes.
FPV
FPV drone footage has the ability to fly complex and intricate flight patterns. This creative freedom enables filmmakers to experiment with unconventional angles and narratives. Check out this one-take drone shot we created for Maxi Mover, this footage was then added in snippets to the main video.

Planting on the Lincolnshire #NetZero site gets underway! Trials have been set up to understand the carbon footprint of potato production and how we might reduce its impact, with the help of University of Lincoln, David Armstrong Farms Ltd, Arbikie Highland Estate, CROP SYSTEMS LIMITED & B-hive Innovations Ltd . The project looks at cultivations, diesel usage fertiliser use and type as well as variety trials and soil biology.

We’ve been working with Branston potatoes alongside B-Hive Productions and the University of Lincoln capturing the exciting trials they are working on with their Net-Zero project.
This is the first in a series of videos that we have produced documenting the progress at their Net-Zero trail plot at David Armstong Farms Ltd. Check the video out below!
In this video Technical Field Manager, Andy Blair chats with David Armstrong and Dr Iain Gould from the University of Lincoln as pre-planting soil testing takes place at the Bardney trials site.
We will be capturing progress throughout the year at the trial site documenting all the potential ways to reduce carbon in growing, transporting and storing potatoes.
Drones have revolutionized the world of aerial cinematography, capturing breathtaking footage and providing viewers with unique perspectives. FPV (First-Person View) drones have gained immense popularity due to their ability to capture thrilling and immersive footage. Today, we're excited to introduce our new FPV drone showreel!
From Mountain Diving to flying through WW2 Lancaster Bombers, these drones push the boundaries of what's possible.
FPV drones possess the unique ability to capture perspectives that were previously unattainable. These small, nimble crafts can fly through tight spaces, weave between obstacles, and navigate with astonishing precision.

One of our highligts from 2021!
It was great to work alongside youtube sensation Joe Jenkins for his video with #TeamSeas. Providing FPV footage for his nautical themed video.
High winds, choppy waters, take off and landing on a moving vessel. Although the shoot had its challenges we are pleased with the results. Huge thanks to City Cruises for letting us race around their boat!

One of the first shoots of the year this year was with our friends over at Commuter Films! For this project we were tasked with shooting a range of accomdation sites at the University of Lincoln.
Shooting at sunrise is always worth getting up for when you get light like this. Using our DJI Mavic 3 CINE capturing low light scenes in stunning 5.1K is no problem. Using the 10-bit D-Log color profile gives huge felxibilty in post production allowing the drone shots to fit seamlessly into any project.

Last summer we worked with Wallbreaker Productions on a variety of projects. For this shoot were tasked with providing dynamic shots at Revesby Estate for a series of case studies they produced for Duncan & Toplis.
For this shoot we used the Inspire 2, due to the portability and lightweight frame of the Inspire, it meant we could travel across the estate to multiple locations to capture footage for the project in the narrow time window we had on the day.

This was our first shoot with Copper Crayon, we were commissioned to capture establishing aerial shots over a number of sites across Norfolk and Suffolk for a series of videos they produced for the National Trust.
Last summer we worked with Wallbreaker Productions on a variety of projects. For this shoot were tasked with providing dynamic shots of the International Bomber Command Centre in Lincoln for a series of case studies they produced for Duncan & Toplis.
For this shoot we primarily used the Inspire 2 as we could switch out lenses for a variety of shots. As the site started to get a little busier we switched to the Mavic 2, this drone is a lot quieter and less intrusive which was ideal for such a sensitive area.

We were hired by Choir for a three day shoot in Ulm, Germany for a project they were producing for Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd.
Take a virtual tour of Teva's state-of-the-art biopharmaceutical facility in Ulm, Germany, and meet the people leading the way to the next generation of medicines.
We assisted on the ground as a second camera as well as shooting the aerial footage for the project. We can travel worldwide with minimal expense and capture high quality footage both on the ground and in the air.
For this project we shot out of one hand luggage suitcase, out kitlist included;
Lenses, batteries, tripod, sound gear, chargers, etc.
Even with a small set up like this we were able to shoot smooth and cinematic 4K footage for our client.
