DFES and Peaceful Bay the GMi Way!

Last Friday saw GMi taking a quick trip down to Peaceful Bay in our states beautiful Great Southern Region to do a shoot for the Department of Fire and Emergency Services (DFES).

 

The shoot was about recognizing the efforts of the Peaceful Bay Sea Rescue Group in a dramatic sea rescue operation over two days that they performed earlier in the year. The shoot was a lot of fun and Mark is looking forward to getting back into the both the Great Southern and the Southwest to further expand our library of drone vision!

Goodbye Summer, Hello Autumn in the City of Bunbury!

Summer has passed and without getting to hot which was nice for all the filming and droning around the state we have been doing (keep your eyes peeled to see some of that here soon!).

 

So since we are now in Autumn it’s probably time to show you the next video in the Bunbury Events line, this one covers the upcoming events in, yes you guessed it, Autumn.

Happy Holidays from GMi!

2017 is coming to a close and as we rapidly approach the end of year break, we here at GMi would like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

 

We had a great year working on a range of projects around our great state and the world. Projects which saw the boys from GMi going to such locales as Dirk Hartog Island, Albany, loads of places in the beautiful South West, the Netherlands and Germany, before finishing the year in Esperance.

 

We are looking to getting back to it in 2018 and working with you on your next project wherever you may be! 2018 will see our new eLearning LMS coming on line, as well as a whole range of 360/VR video capabilities and production streams.

 

We wish you all a safe and happy new year and will see you in 2018, Happy Holidays!

Eye in the sky with GMi – Meet the Mavic pro

The boys here at GMi have got another drone!

 

This time we have selected the latest from DJI: the Mavic Pro. This is a truly incredible drone capable of some amazing things. It has a 27 minute flight time, is so compact it fits into a backpack and has the ability to fly indoors. INDOORS!!!… Oh and the pictures look great too, both inside, and out in the field at 4K!

 

We have been having a lot of fun here in the office with that feature and are truly amazed with what this new kit can achieve. If you would like to talk to us about what it can do for you and your project drop us a line here we would love to hear from you! Even if its just to talk about drones! Drones that fly INDOORS!!!

Prescribed Burning videos go live!

GMi and the Department of Parks and Wildlife (DPaW) have been working together recently to produce a series of short videos for social media platforms about DPaWs prescribed burning program.

The videos explore the history of fire in Western Australia, the action of fire on bushland, why and how the department carries out prescribed burns to protect communities and wildlife, and the landscape’s recovery from fire.

7D 1000mm and GMi

GMi has recently added to its diverse equipment collection with addition of a new 1000mm Super Telephoto lens. Married up to a state of the art aluminum SLR camera cage, high definition field monitor and our beloved Canon 7D camera GMi is now able to undertake those incredible wildlife shoots in full HD.

 

With a magnification significantly greater than our previous best lens, this rig is already producing spectacular wildlife video. Using the latest in post production image stabilization from Avid Media Composer and Adobe After Effects we are able to use the lens to its maximum magnification, shooting wildlife at 200m or more with superb clarity. The addition of our specially sourced dedicated field monitor and rail system allows for greater focus control and quick setup.

 

Look out for the results in documentaries we are producing now – we are excited, and we hope you will be too!
