Portland Bill to Bowleaze ... An Aerial Journey Across Weymouth and Portland

This short video is a collaboration between www.Love-Weymouth.co.uk, www.Visit-Dorset.tv and a number of amateur drone users who gave us their footage to edit. It was first shown at the Best of Dorset Show in March 2014 in Weymouth
It was a real pleasure to put this together and we were really pleased to see so many people enjoying it on the big screen as part of their Best of Dorset Experience.
www.love-weymouth.co.uk
Best viewed in HD setting full screen.
For those interested in the technical side of things it was shot in HD using with a GoPro Hero 3+ on a DJI Phantom quadcopter. Some image stabilisation was carried out during edit using FCP X
Coming soon www.love-portland.co.uk but until then there's plenty of Portland info on the Weymouth website

Just returned to London from Weymouth and Isle of Portland. You have captured the area beautifully. Both you and the area are treasures! Thanks for this.

[@arklight22]

Just wonderful, thank you for making Weymouth and Portland visable even though we're 100's of miles away.

[@meandmymouth]

Magnificent ! Thanks for this brilliant souvenir of my favourite sea side location and former childhood home. These new drone camera toys are super fun. Especially enjoyed my flight under the town bridge !

[@TheAlexandrecampelo]

I've been twice in this place and it is simply lovely, congratulations for this beautiful video.

[@suewright1299]

Our dear friends showed us this amazing film of Portland through to Weymouth this afternoon, she grew up in Portland and adores it. Fantastic filming and perfect music. Congratulations all concerned!

[@krissmgvlogs]

I stayed there for a week back in 2011 and again in 2012 when I worked for the Olympic Games. I walked the full length of the beach and did the Rodwell Trail too. So beautiful there and so many good memories.

[@harmony3395]

[@kernowprincess]

Beautiful footage as we were in Weymouth for my friend's birthday on 31.8.18 and walked along the seafront and had a trip on the Skyline tower..was awesome and the views across Weymouth bay were amazing on a beautiful day. On 1st Sept. we drove to Portland Bill and had another lovely day walking around and had a lovely Ploughmans lunch in The Pulpit Pub there...weather was Fab and we just loved the area...thank you for sharing your lovely video...we have lovely memories of our visit there 😁👍👍

[@scottkelly5597]

Some of my favorite places to go visit when I'm in Weymouth, Nothe gardens, Sandsfoot castle, Chesil cove, beautiful

[@RealBesty]

Lovely job - some familiar places from unfamiliar angles. The flight under the bridge at Weymouth Harbour is a proper PC flight simulator moment! 👍

[@davidsheriff8989]

Reminds me of the many times I have spent here from 1985-2007

[@enki9006]

WOW....lovely footage

[@carlbarron1186]

This is a magnificent Drone Capture Aerial Photography witch most people will enjoy from viewing from their armchair or mobile devices. Well done chaps regardless of alleged breach of the law by obviously Dead Jealous pain in the BUTT PC correct others, like Rob Munro.

[@jakehufton8725]

Really don't understand how 4 people don't like this.

[@garymitchell7095]

Because they are all sad and need to get a life

Up to 34 dislikes in Feb 2020, but don't forget that this is KZbin, someone will complain and 'thumb down' regardless of content.

[@stephenpearson7903]

My grand parents and 2 of aunts and uncles lived in Weymouth as did my dad, Shame the Rec has gone where the football club played now an ASDA car park, Devonish brewery has gone as has the torpedo works. The town has completely changed, use to love swimming out from the Nothe to the raft. Last time I went on holiday to Weymouth was 1997 found out I could holiday in Florida for 2 weeks at the same cost of 2 weeks in Weymouth Decided to visit Weymouth again in May. Always use to take home a fresh crab from the Chaplehay Heights pub at first always told they had none but that was because i am not a local, then my aunt who played darts for the pub said he's my nephew - so I was taken to a room with quite a few crabs to choose from.

[@kingpranw141180]

[@meandmymouth]

Please tell us if there is a moment during the filming where we can spot "the controller" of the drone in the picture ? Oh go on ! Promise not to tell ;)

[@livinginweymouth]

Just bought a drone and plan to make many Weymouth videos myself. I hope they come out as well as this did :-)

[@LoveWeymouth1]

We’d love to see them when you do 🙂

[@livinginweymouth]

@@LoveWeymouth1 just uploaded a quick video from this morning. Only had the drone a few days, but I love it.

[@MsrAlaindeFerrier]

Superb

Great Video, and very professionaly done....

[@Spuddietm]

Is there a possibility of a video dedicated just to Portland. Would be great to see.

[@rogerhearn7109]

Could someone please tell me, where and what is the old building at 4-40. Thanks in advance

[@bandyboo2805]

Used to go on Holiday here as a kid. We had a big Caravan thingie on a site owned by Jim if anyone knows that?

[@Frank-om4fc]

Dorset is so underated...

[@johnsheriff3904]

To me the most beautiful place on earth and if im ever lucky enough to have enough money i will live out my days there

[@ianhuxstep211]

Looks like this was filmed using a drone.

Hi 👋 is it possible to use 15 seconds of this footage for a intro please? My daughter and I have started a channel called jurassic coasting. Fossil Hunting and visiting random destinations. Where the intro is used I will contain credit in the description. Thanks in advance. Casey and Summer

[@LoveWeymouth1]

Hi Casey and Summer that will be fine good luck with your channel 🙂

You mean the jurrasic skyline at 7:205? Otherwise what is GTA and what's the achievement?

[@ThaiTastic]

did you have permission to fly drones here?

[@TomPoop]

Hello there. Excellent footage! Might I be able to possibly use some of your film for some projections at an event in September? You can contact me at mrthomashughes at hotmail . com if you like. Cheers! Tom

[@paulharris3149]

Not like Portland Oregon is it thank god lol

[@robmunro7032]

Good though this footage is, as already noted, woefully in breach of the law. You can't fly within 150m of a congested area (defined clearly in law) unless you have CAA Permissions for Aerial Work and even then the limit is usually 50m. Any footage from amateurs is highly likely to be in breach of CAP 393 (the Air Navigation Order). This will only serve to make it harder for those of us who are qualified to use drones.

[@hyperfocus4866]

zzzzzzzzzz

[@enki9006]

Rob Munro TWAT!

[@hyperfocus4866]

:D

[@billt1954]

Rob Munroe,. I hope you still feel the same way when a drone buzzes the next aircraft you and your loved ones travel on.

[@billt1954]

Sorry, my reply was intended for Frank Spencer.

[@daisydog1975]

Don’t bother going it’s freezing cold windy, and a total shit hole with nothing there . Honestly

[@bionictrowel6135]

nice views but have to stop watching it because of the horible music
