Heriot-Watt University

This university video production was shot in collaboration with UAV drone operator Peter Keith for Tanami video production. I used my Sony FS7 together with my steadicam to create the look the clients sought. We filmed across Edinburgh and Galasheilds in the Scottish borders, so travelling light was key – one bag and and a DG Glidecam were used to create the cinematography style required.

Created for the School of Textiles and Design, this video for Heriot-Watt University shows just how accessible the Galashiels campus is from Edinburgh city centre. Featuring Heriot-Watt students, Tanami captured footage using two camera crews, including a drone pilot.
