It’s been a big week with the announcement of the start of works for the Singleton Bypass. We will be covering this project for the 2.5 years that it’s expected to run for, with 2-3 Timelapse cameras across the site plus the use of our drone, flying under the companies REoC. Looking forward to seeing this come to life.

Here is a cut down version of the transformer move that we did recently. It would have to be one of the most epic moves that we have videoed.

Just been on site at Port of Newcastle to have a final go-over of tomorrow nights job. We are videoing the transport of a 330T transformer from Newcastle to Kurri. The cargo will be moved with 4 front and 2 push trucks. The overall length will be 137m. Top speed about 20kmph. It’ll take about 6 hours to move 30kms.

Just got back from a great trip, for several of our clients, that I could luckily combine a single trip to service them all. Day one, was Wollar, to take one of our trailers to site, head to Gunnedah, to shoot the Sale Yards new admin building for David Payne Constructions. Then headed to Narrabri to grab another trailer, and then headed to Condobolin to remove a camera ( which was about 950Kms for the day). Day 2 was leave Condo, drive back to Wollar to install the 3 cameras on 2 trailers, and then head back to the Hunter Valley, home by 9.30pm.
You will notice that one of the trailers has 2 cameras on the mast, so that when we back-to-back them, we can capture this massive solar farm site. The great thing about our trailers is that they are mobile, work can be completed on the ground, which eliminate's the costs of an EWP and timber pole install and removal.

Most people would know that Elton John toured the eastern states of Australia recently. McDonald Jones Stadium contacted Firebug Photography to set up 4 timelapse camera systems to capture the complete set up, event and pack down of the 2 concerts that were held in Newcastle. 40,000 people came to the 2 concerts, that's a pretty good effort.
