Commercial Vessel Filming in Chepstow

Professional, sea-safe commercial vessel filming in Chepstow supporting shipping, yachts, and coastal structures.

Recent Work

Selected work from across London and the Thames.

Chepstow sits within our River Wye marine operating area for commercial vessel filming. The same crew can cover a yacht shoot in the morning and a quay inspection in the afternoon. Marine work rewards crews who have actually operated at sea rather than only over it.

We plan Chepstow flights against live port traffic rather than a static harbour chart. Dual-operator crews let the pilot manage proximity and drift while the camera operator holds the frame. Time on site is agreed in advance so vessel and shore teams can plan around it.

Any flight inside Chepstow harbour limits is cleared with the authority before the crew arrives. Documentation is available before booking: permissions, insurance and the risk assessment. Our marine risk assessments are written to be read, not to satisfy a filing requirement.

Rushes can go out the same evening where a deadline requires it. Through our partnership with Cinecraft we can supply MCA-coded vessels for at-sea launches in Chepstow. Most enquiries get a same-day response.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you coordinate with the vessel's skipper?

Yes. Given the skipper's contact we plan the passage and the shot list together, which is what makes the difference between a vessel that happens to be in frame and one that is positioned for the shot.

Do you carry out structural inspections of port infrastructure?

Yes. We fly high-zoom and thermal payloads for close-range condition survey of quays, jetties, coastal defences and offshore structures, delivered as annotated reports or georeferenced imagery.

Do you require harbour authority clearance for commercial vessel filming in Chepstow?

Any professional drone operation within port or harbour limits at Chepstow needs clearance from the harbour master and port authority. UAS London arranges those approvals and keeps the coordination logs as part of the service.
