When it comes to bringing the magic of the wilderness to the big screen, there is a lot of behind-the-scenes work that goes into creating those scenes. Wilderness rigging plays a crucial role in media projects set in remote locations, allowing filmmakers to capture those stunning shots that transport audiences to the great outdoors.

At Rowan Elwell Tree Services, we have extensive experience in wilderness rigging for film and television projects. Rowan is trained in safely navigating challenging terrains and setting up rigging systems that can support cameras, lights, and other equipment needed to film in the wilderness. Whether it's suspending cameras and rigging cable dolly lines from trees to capture aerial shots or creating platforms in hard-to-reach areas, our expertise ensures that filmmakers can bring their vision to life. One of the key aspects of wilderness rigging is ensuring the safety of everyone involved in the filming process. Our team conducts thorough risk assessments and follows strict safety protocols to minimise any potential hazards. We also prioritise environmental sustainability, making sure that our rigging methods have minimal impact on the surrounding environment. In addition to working on film projects, our wilderness rigging services are also utilised by ecologists, conservationists, and researchers who need access to remote forest locations for their work. Our canopy access and rigging services enable them to study and document wildlife, conduct research, and carry out conservation efforts in areas that are otherwise difficult to reach. With our passion for the great outdoors and commitment to excellence, we take pride in being a trusted partner for film and television productions looking to capture the beauty of the outdoors on camera. At Rowan Elwell Tree Services, we are honored to play a part in bringing the untamed beauty of the outdoors to screens around the world. Projects small to large, we're keen to be involved.
