Boat Filming London in Chiswick
Specialist over-water boat filming london at Chiswick for marine engineering, logistics, and creative media.
Recent Work
Selected work from across London and the Thames.
We work in Chiswick regularly, and river operations are the core of what we do. Both riverbank and vessel-launched operations are available depending on the shot. Tell us the deadline early, because the tide table, not the diary, usually sets the date.
Operations in Chiswick are timed to the tide and to gaps in commercial river traffic. Capture is in RAW throughout, leaving headroom for grading or photogrammetric processing. We can work outside normal hours where river traffic or light demands it.
PLA notification, harbour master liaison and VTS contact for Chiswick are handled in-house. All river flights are logged and the records remain available for your own compliance file. If the airspace or the PLA position makes the job impossible, you hear it at the enquiry stage.
Turnaround is same-day for raw and 24 to 48 hours for finished output. We are trusted on the river by operators including CPBS Marine Services, MMS Marine and the Dutch Master. Most enquiries get a same-day response.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the tide affect a shoot in Chiswick?
Tide decides what is visible, what is navigable and where we can launch and recover. We plan Chiswick operations around the tide table first and build the shot list around the window that gives you the best water.
What deliverables can you provide from Chiswick?
Broadcast-ready video, high-resolution stills, georeferenced orthomosaics of the bank and foreshore, 3D models, or written inspection reports. Raw capture is handed over on the day and processed output follows within 24 to 48 hours.
Do you work with the vessel operator directly?
Yes, and it makes a noticeable difference to the result. Given the skipper's contact we coordinate the passage and the shot list directly, so the vessel is where the camera needs it rather than the other way round.
