The brief...
The Represent Belstaff campaign was filmed at the Freightliner Manchester shipping yard in Trafford Park, using the industrial container setting as the backdrop for a motocross inspired shoot. The concept followed three riders on vintage motocross bikes moving through the yard, creating a raw, mechanical feel that suited the collaboration. Our role was to capture FPV drone footage that could track the riders closely as they moved through the container stacks, adding speed and movement to the wider campaign production
The result...
The FPV sequences follow the riders weaving through the container yard at Freightliner Manchester, tracking their movement between the stacked containers and across the open yard. The drone stays close to the bikes, matching their pace while revealing the scale and layout of the location. Alongside the FPV shots, another production team captured ground footage using a tracking vehicle fitted with a camera arm, combining aerial tracking with vehicle-mounted perspectives. Studio scenes were filmed separately by the Represent team and later combined with the location footage in the final edit. As we did not produce the final edit, this page showcases selected FPV clips captured during the shoot, with a link to the finished campaign video shared by Represent
Behind the lens...
The FPV footage was captured using a cinelifter drone paired with a Sony ZV-E10, recording in S-Log so the footage could match the colour profile used by the rest of the production team’s cameras. Filming took place within the container yard at Freightliner Manchester, with coordination between the riders, the tracking vehicle crew, and the FPV pilot to capture the high speed sequences safely
