We're thrilled to share the release of our latest project, new work commissioned for Portsmouth City Council as part of the ongoing Southsea Coastal Defence Scheme.


We were brought on board to film the installation of a stunning new public artwork by Turner Prize-nominated artist Nathan Coley at the iconic Southsea Castle Lighthouse. To capture the piece in its full coastal setting, we provided professional drone services, giving viewers a perspective that truly does justice to the work and its dramatic location.



Unveiling at Portsmouth100

The artwork was unveiled as part of the Portsmouth100 celebrations, a landmark event marking a century of civic pride for the city. We were lucky enough to be on location filming the fireworks display from the Castle Walls, making for an unforgettable shoot.


The finished film is now available to watch on the Portsmouth City Council YouTube channel, and is currently showing on the Big Screen in Guildhall Square.

Professional Drone Services in Portsmouth and the South Coast

This project is a great example of how aerial filming can elevate public art documentation, architectural work, and civic events. If you're looking for experienced drone videography in Portsmouth, Southampton, or across the South Coast, we'd love to hear about your project.
