Aerial filming of vessels, the water and the work done on it: ships and tugs under way, yachts, tows and marine works, events on the river, and productions shooting on the water. Most of it is flown from a boat, so the drone can stay with a moving subject.
Yes, and that is most of what we do. We agree positions and distances with the crew beforehand, keep the drone well off the vessel and use long lenses for the close work, so the boat keeps to its schedule.
