River Event Filming at St Clement's Reach
Specialist over-water river event filming at St Clement's Reach for marine engineering, logistics, and creative media.
Recent Work
Selected work from across London and the Thames.
River Event Filming at St Clement's Reach is routine work for our Thames crews. We work for towage operators, passenger vessel companies, civil contractors and production teams. Stills and video come from the same tide window rather than two separate mobilisations.
Flight planning at St Clement's Reach accounts for wind funnelling along the river and around structures. Output can be broadcast-ready ProRes, high-bitrate RAW, or georeferenced survey data. Kit is checked ashore before anything is committed over water.
Coordination with the Port of London Authority is standard on every flight at St Clement's Reach. Documentation is available up front: permissions, marine insurance and the risk assessment. Abort criteria are briefed to the crew and the skipper before the first launch.
Delivery is by secure cloud transfer with the raw capture archived as backup. 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 film moving vessels at St Clement's Reach?
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.
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.
Can you launch drones directly from boats at St Clement's Reach?
Yes. Through our partnership with Cinecraft we have access to MCA-coded workboats and support vessels, and our pilots are experienced in launching and recovering from a moving deck.
