Thames Towage Filming in Teddington
Specialist over-water thames towage filming at Teddington for marine engineering, logistics, and creative media.
Recent Work
Selected work from across London and the Thames.
UAS London delivers thames towage filming in Teddington on the tidal River Thames. Our crews pair CAA-licensed drone pilots with working river skippers who read tide, traffic and weather off the water rather than off a map. Where a brief covers several reaches, we plan them into one run down the river.
Planning in Teddington 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. A contingency window is built in wherever the shot depends on conditions.
We keep the river authorities informed from planning through to the end of the flight. We can supply method statements for the principal contractor's file where the site requires it. Privacy on the bank is considered in the flight plan, not left to the edit.
We retain the raw river capture in case you need to return to it later. Contact our marine desk with the Teddington brief and we will confirm the tide windows that work. If the tides do not work for your deadline, we will tell you rather than string it out.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does river work in Teddington 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.
Can you launch from the bank rather than a vessel in Teddington?
Often, yes, and it is usually cheaper. It depends on landowner permission, a clear take-off and landing area, and whether the subject stays within safe range from shore. We will tell you which approach the shot actually needs.
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.
