Boat Filming London in Greenwich
Specialist over-water boat filming london at Greenwich for marine engineering, logistics, and creative media.
Recent Work
Selected work from across London and the Thames.
UAS London covers Greenwich as part of our tidal Thames operating area. We work for towage operators, passenger vessel companies, civil contractors and production teams. We are used to working alongside vessel crews, ground units and marshals already on site.
Where the Greenwich flight passes near bridges or moorings, we plan clearances and abort routes first. Output can be broadcast-ready ProRes, high-bitrate RAW, or georeferenced survey data. Where bank access is restricted, we scout the approach before the crew and kit arrive.
Notices to mariners are checked before any Greenwich flight, and radio watch is kept during it. Crews are water-safety trained as well as CAA-licensed. 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. Share the brief and we will confirm crew availability against the tide table the same day. Most enquiries get a same-day response.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does river work in Greenwich cost?
It depends on tide windows, whether vessel support is needed and what you want delivered, so we quote per project. Send the brief and the deadline and we will come back with a fixed price and the viable tides.
How does the tide affect a shoot in Greenwich?
Tide decides what is visible, what is navigable and where we can launch and recover. We plan Greenwich operations around the tide table first and build the shot list around the window that gives you the best water.
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.
