Story

For this video we join CoxGomyl’s friendly crew as they enter Leatop Plaza, to begin manoeuvring their BMU; hidden inside a parking pit, within the sloping roof of this 300mtr tower. Filmed on a very wet and misty day our team overcame the conditions to provide a snapshot of this mega machine, which was designed  using precise calculations to coordinate with the inclined roof and facade, as it luffs and slews, using its five stage telescopic jib, with an outreach of 32.4mtrs across the building.

Our solution to cover all the action included using colour filters and a range of cameras including real time, timelapse, GoPro and drone. Our photographer was lucky…he got to shoot on a sunny day!

All the results were given an enthusiastic reception and incorporated into presentations, marketing and social media content.
