Thames Drone Filming in Silvertown

Flying in Silvertown means working over moving water, tidal range and live vessel traffic. Typical briefs cover vessel tracking, riverside development, bridge condition and event coverage. If the shot is not achievable in the window you have, we will say so at the enquiry stage.

Planning in Silvertown starts with the tide window, because it decides what is even possible. Output can be broadcast-ready ProRes, high-bitrate RAW, or georeferenced survey data. Light on the water changes fast, so we will suggest the state of tide and time of day that suits the subject.

We work to PLA requirements as a matter of course rather than as an afterthought. Emergency landing points are identified on the bank or on a vessel before take-off, never improvised. Nothing goes up until the paperwork, the tide plan and the brief agree with each other.

We retain the raw river capture in case you need to return to it later. Contact our marine desk with the Silvertown 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.
