It has been a busy October with just under 12 hours of drone deployment.

The shoots have been remarkably interesting and very varied.

Shoots have included House Hunters International for US TV, Luxury Housing Development, The Swift, Windermere Lake Cruises new boat, Food Product (delivery with drone), Pipeline Filming, Managing a drone shoot for a large fashion house. More on that below.

Jacamo Drone Shoot

An approach was received from the production company Diagonal View to provide two drone operators for a branded content for Jacamo. Because of prior commission we quickly contacted our partner companies John Handley of Dropzone Images and Mark Stansfield of MS Photographic. Skylark acted as the go between for the shoot.

It was a very wet shoot both Mark and John did very well to capture the footage required.

Take a look at the video below. Whatever the weather we shall try our best if it is safe to capture those crucial moments.

A Busy October

It has been a busy October with just under 12 hours of drone deployment.

October 2020 has turned out to be the busiest on record for the company. It was good to see TV and production companies returning to the Lake District for shoots following what has been a very unsettled year.

The first part of November was as equally as busy prior to the England Lock Down.
