Friday 24th April
Lockdown Luss footage mission begins in an empty hotel - minus painters - hoping they can get things finished so I can get a good shot from exterior to a room.
Started work on the interior of the hotel - Bloody gimbal is impossible to balance - although I think im being thick. The brief from the client seemed to be pretty small - ad a funny feeling this might grow as the village is so empty, this is the perfect time to get some footage. I spent the day making sure I come into contact with no one - just like last night. The only people I was close too, was the two police men who quickly quizzed my presence, whilst the drone was overing approx 13 ft above their car roof. Fortunately, just dropping the clients name is enough.
The target of visit is to capture mainly video content of the various sites that the client owns, and, after seeing the first few pics of footage, this list gets added to and the decision is made to extend the stay whilst the weather is top notch.
As Kirsty and I traveled together we have a small room, right at the back of the site, which is our base for the couple of days. I can see it starting to smell of takeaway, coffee and pot noodles dry quickly…
