We have had quite a few underwater photogrammetry projects. We are thrilled to be able to share some of the results on our sketchfab. The models we have recently published are ship and aircraft wrecks in Malta and The Federated States of Micronesia. Maltas strategic location means it had a huge amount of history and the water around her coast…
In September last year, 3dMB were invited along to provide media coverage of a truly epic effort. We documented open water swimmer Neil Brinkworth while he swam from the Eddystone Lighthouse to Plymouth Hoe, a distance of around 13 miles! 3dMB provided terrestrial, aerial and in water media capture and provided 2 fully edited videos for Neil. The videos are…
Connecting the North Sea with the Bristol Channel, the Kennet & Avon Canal played a role of huge importance to the Industrial Revolution as one of Britains major transport routes. The canal route cuts through 94 miles of land between the River Avon in Bristol Docks and the River Thames in Reading with 106 locks along its length and peaks…
With the passing of 2020, new drone regulations come into effect in the UK. Here at 3dMB we have been busy ensuring we are not only compliant, but as qualified as we can be when the change happens. Phil & Marcus have recently achieved both the A2 Certificate of Competency (A2CofC) and the General Visual Line of Sight Certificate (GVC)…
“All the leaves are brown, and the sky is grey” This week sees the final ‘Image of the week’ for a while, with a NDA on current jobs and storm season I see will prevent the ability to regularly capture images to publish. Talking storms, this weeks image is a shot at dusk just before a huge storm hit, you…
Image of the week – 3rd October 2020. This weeks image was captured in one of our favourite local landmarks earlier this week. Caen Hill locks are on the Kennett & Avon Canal on the outskirts of Devizes in Wiltshire. The complete flight of locks stretched around 2 miles and comprises a total of 29 locks which raise the canal…
With this weeks image, I return to one of my favourite shoots for the year. A very early morning with 3 dive boats and 2 drones at my disposal, with the intention of creating a video that breaks away from the serious day to day work and show some fun during the gorgeous early golden hour. This image shows the…
This week we had a job performing a fly over of some agricultural land near us, while on site we came across this little gem of industrial decay, a wind powered water pump. By its appearance I think it safe to say that the pump hasn’t been operational for many years, however it was such an exciting find as these…
If you follow us on Instagram you will have already seen us post this image, the story behind the image speaks far more than the image itself and for this reason, this weeks image I have named “Inspiration”. It was captured earlier this week out at sea as the sun rose behind Neil Brinkworth on his marathon swim from the Eddystone…
With storms giving unsuitable flying conditions, this week I choose an image from the back catalogue. This time of sunset at Swanage Bay. This image shows the whole of Swanage Bay with Peveril Point on the left hand side and Old Harry Rocks on the right. The image was captured at dusk at the start of summer as lockdown was…
