Back in May I was asked to produce a short promo video for an estate agents based in the historic Derbyshire town of Wirksworth. For this project I used a variety of techniques as well as the drone for some aerial footage. For more information and to discuss your filming or photographic project please feel free to contact me on 07870864031.
The Woodland Trust…Young People’s Forest. UPDATE
Just a quick post to say that a lot of my recent aerial footage from the launch of the Young People’s Forest at Shipley Park in Derbyshire has been included in the final edited video. For the full length video head over to the The Woodland Trusts youtube channel. There are also shorter versions of the video on the usual social media platforms…Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.
Not just drone photography and video.
As well as offering an aerial photography and video service to Derby and the surrounding area I also offer other services such as video editing, time-lapse photography and also a regular photography service. All three of these skills came in handy for a recent project I was working on for a client in Wirksworth in Derbyshire. The short video that I made for a client based in Wirksworth consisted of various filming techniques including time-lapse and some aerial filming with my drone. Most of the footage was filmed in Wirksworth with some additional shots being filmed in the surrounding towns of Cromford and Matlock. Wirksworth in particularly is a beautiful town with some lovely old buildings, the town itself is surrounded by green rolling hills and also some nice abandoned quarries. Wirksworth also has a thriving arts scene with many artists based in the town. The annual Wirksworth Arts Festival is certainly worth a visit.

The Woodland Trust…Young People’s Forest.
Last week I was involved in a high profile launch of the Young People’s Forest near Heanor in Derbyshire with The Woodland Trust. Over a hundred young people gathered on a former coal mining site as they planted the first trees of Britain’s first Young People’s Forest.
The weather was perfect for capturing aerial views of the site which will be transformed into a 400 acre woodland, and also for capturing an aerial shot of the young people spelling out YPF (Young People’s Forest).

Winter Flying…
One of the biggest problems of flying a drone in winter months is battery management, with this in mind I was keen to do a few trials (nothing too scientific) with the recent cold and snowy weather. During these tests it was very obvious that the cold temperatures significantly reduced the battery life of batteries that had not been kept warm in my pockets compared with batteries that had been kept warm in my pocket. I would say battery life was reduced by about 20% on a cold day off 0C. Remember if the temperature drops to below 0C you should stop flying immediately. I encountered no other problems but I was extremely cautious as I have heard stories of drones falling out of the sky with little or no warning. Some drones nowadays have self heating batteries like the Magic 2 Enterprise for example.
It is also important to dress correctly…wrap up warm and wear gloves (flying with cold hands could result in loosing control) and a hat, being exposed to the cold can make you feel tired and loose concentration.
HAPPY NEW YEAR…
Great start to 2019 with various assignments already completed for estate agents and private clients in Derbyshire and South Yorkshire.
