Shoreline at Greyabbey: a drone film that held steady in 30mph winds

Some shoots test the kit, and Shoreline was one of them. This lough-shore home at Greyabbey on the Ards Peninsula needed to be seen from the air to make sense, the way the house sits against the water and the open Co Down sky. The catch was the weather. We filmed it in winds gusting to 30mph, and a coastal breeze like that is exactly the kind of thing that turns a drone shot into a wobbly mess.

It did not. With a steady hand and the right flight planning, the footage came out smooth and cinematic, the house framed cleanly against the lough shore. That is the difference between a quick clip and a film an estate agent can put their name to.

We were commissioned by Simon Brien Residential, and for a setting like this the drone is the whole story. Our aerial photography and drone work places a home in its landscape, while a cinematic property video tour carries a buyer through it. This is the kind of coastal property we love filming around the Ards Peninsula and Strangford Lough.

If your next listing needs the sky to do the talking, we will fly it, weather permitting.
