    Aerial coverage of 95-tonne fender spacer units being moved at Portsmouth International Port

    In PortPorts & LogisticsIndustrial Site
    In September 2019, we captured the move of some new 95-tonne fender spacer units from ML Ltd. through aerial photography and drone videos, with our friends and regular collaborators at Portico Shipping. The units will ensure Portsmouth is ready to receive HMS Prince of Wales, which boasts a flight deck 70 metres wide and 280 metres long — enough space for three football pitches!

    Regularly working with Portico has been highly rewarding. We're honoured that our drone photography, videos, and aerial 360° visuals have been a core asset in their efforts to market themselves as a trusted supplier of a diverse and ever-growing range of cargo handling services.

    Production

    We used our DJI Inspire 2 with wide lenses and zoom lenses to shoot both a broader picture and a close-up perspective, perfectly showcasing the incredible scale of the operation. The ground crew filmed from a number of ideal vantage points at Portico's facilities, and we affixed GoPros to cranes and other cargo-handling vehicles to strengthen the storytelling with intriguing and unique points of view.

    The resulting aerial visuals gave Portico a powerful suite of marketing assets showcasing their capabilities at Portsmouth International Port, ready to handle some of the Royal Navy's most impressive vessels.
