Filming In London Special Offers for 2010
In 2008, the London Filming Partnership agreed to look at the cost of filming in London. Film London hosted a forum to discuss the issues surrounding charges, and a number of working groups were established following this.
As a result of this work, the London boroughs have committed to a greater level of transparency on charging and several members of the Partnership are now offering discounts and incentives.
Full information on these filming discounts and offers can be found on Film London’s guide to filming page

High Level TV provides birds’s eye view at Broadcast Video Expo

For Broadcast Video Expo release
HIGH LEVEL TV PROVIDES BIRD’S EYE VIEW AT BROADCAST VIDEO EXPO
London, Broadcast Video Expo, Stand OB2 – 17th February 2009 – High Level TV, a unique service in the field of film/TV production and outside broadcast programme making, is launching today at Broadcast Video Expo on stand OB2. Delivering sophisticated aerial video shots for sports, news and drama applications, High Level TV provides Film/TV production companies and outside broadcasters with an on-location, affordable aerial filming service that enables the capture of the bird’s eye view or top shot. The High Level TV team have a fully equipped vehicle on the stand at Broadcast Video Expo providing visitors with a full demonstration.
The system consists of a mobile film unit, which can include a pre-specified camera as required by the customer or comes fully-equipped with a broadcast quality camera on a fully-controllable pneumatic mast, mounted to a 4×4 vehicle or van. High Level TV is able to provide switchable HD/SD SDI cameras and recording facilities. The camera is controlled remotely from inside the vehicle providing a continuous 360 degrees shot if required. Material can be recorded to tape or disc and live feeds can also be provided to production crews for monitor and record.
Ian Leslie, High Level TV’s Managing Director comments, “A huge benefit comes from the speed, accessibility and easy set up of the system and equipment. With the ability to travel quickly from location to location at a moment’s notice, the team can shoot anything up to a height of 26 metres, and be ready to film in less than 15 minutes from arriving onsite. This makes the system truly unique.”
The High Level TV system is an ideal solution for location managers to scope a shot. The 26 metre mast and remote camera will create the opportunity to see what’s in the background, over a fence or behind a wall, with the ability to use stills or video to record the view – useful when the director requires a top shot. The quick and easy re-positioning of the High Level vehicles provide the opportunity to see shots from multiple viewpoints ensuring that all potential items that may impact on future filming are identified.
Providing a cost-effective alternative to helicopters and cherry pickers, the High Level TV service can capture that all important top-shot or aerial view of the action. Its instant mobility means a vehicle can be repositioned at any time.
