Capturing Augusta State School concrete slab pour with a drone

Onsite at Augusta State School, south of Brisbane with the Mavic2Pro capturing drone video and photographs of a large concrete slab being poured as part of a school classroom expansion project. The principal contractor for the build was Brisbane based refurbishment and construction company INTREC. 

The brief was to film and photograph the event from start to finish and we ended up being onsite for over 7 hours going through 8 drone batteries. 120 video clips were captured with duration’s ranging from 10-40 seconds totaling 53 Gigabytes worth of video. We were also able to provide the client with over 20 drone photographs and 30 ground based photographs taken with a standard mirrorless Olympus camera.

The Mavic2Pro drone was flown in tripod mode allowing for beautiful slow cinematic orbits, pans and fly overs around the construction site at heights ranging from 10-60 metres above the slab.
