Thames Towage Filming in Erith
Specialist over-water thames towage filming at Erith for marine engineering, logistics, and creative media.
Recent Work
Selected work from across London and the Thames.
If your project sits in Erith, we can plan and fly it with the river permissions already in place. Clients here include TV productions, marine contractors, port operators and engineering teams. If the shot is not achievable in the window you have, we will say so at the enquiry stage.
We check tide state, river traffic and bridge clearances before fixing a date in Erith. Cinema, inspection and mapping payloads can all be flown on the same tide window. Battery and crew changes are planned around the window so nothing is lost mid-sequence.
Coordination with the Port of London Authority is standard on every flight in Erith. Risk assessments for river work are site-specific and account for tide, traffic and public access. If wind or river conditions turn on the day, the pilot's call is final.
We retain the raw river capture in case you need to return to it later. Send us the dates and the shot list and we will tell you which tides are viable. Terms, marine insurance and permissions can all be reviewed before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you fly at night or in low light on the river?
Yes. Night and blue-hour work over the Thames is something we do regularly, with the lighting conditions and additional risk factored into the plan. Twilight often gives the strongest results on the tideway.
Can you film moving vessels in Erith?
Yes. Vessel tracking is a large part of our river work, from towage and workboat operations to passenger craft. Dual-operator crews let the pilot manage proximity and line of sight while the camera operator holds the shot.
What deliverables can you provide from Erith?
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.
