Story

It’s another hot, hot, hot day filming on location for CoxGomyl, this time at Silverene Towers: a pair of matching pyramidal shaped buildings, situated in the heart of the Dubai Marina district. These 150 and 120 meter high structures offer residents fabulous views over the marina…but only if the the right maintenance systems are in place. Enter CoxGomyl’s F-Type ‘Crane’ BMU’s. Each tower is equipped with these at roof level and the machinery is complemented by material hoists for added functionality. Our team set up fixed camera positions, timelapse and GoPro cameras, and also filmed from inside the BMU’s cradle, to capture some engaging footage of these giant machines as they extended across the roof allowing the cradle to lower down the side of the building to carry out maintenance tasks. The resulting video was utilised for promotion and uploaded to CG’s website.
