Thames Brand Activation Filming in Kew
Specialist over-water thames brand activation filming at Kew for marine engineering, logistics, and creative media.
If your project sits in Kew, we can plan and fly it with the river permissions already in place. Our pilots hold marine radio and work directly alongside skippers during the flight. We can attend a pre-start or toolbox meeting where the project requires one.
Magnetic interference near steel structures in Kew is factored into the flight plan. Dual-operator setups let the pilot hold visual line of sight while the camera tracks independently. We can work outside normal hours where river traffic or light demands it.
Any Kew operation is logged with the river authorities before the crew arrives. We carry £10M public liability insurance written to cover over-water operations. Nothing goes up until the paperwork, the tide plan and the brief agree with each other.
Deliverables come in the format your editorial or engineering team already works in. Contact our marine desk with the Kew brief and we will confirm the tide windows that work. The quickest route is a short email with the location, the subject and the deadline.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you manage wind and weather on the river?
The Thames corridor funnels wind and can be considerably rougher than the surrounding streets. We work to maritime forecasts and fly platforms rated to around 25 knots, so a marginal day does not automatically cost you the shoot.
What deliverables can you provide from Kew?
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.
Are you insured for flying over water?
Yes. We carry £10M public liability insurance written to cover over-water operations, and can provide the certificate along with our CAA authorisation and a job-specific risk assessment before booking.
