Captaining a Hybrid, Icebreaker Tugboat in Swedish Lapland (4k)

Story of a tugboat captain in Swedish Lapland, captured whilst documenting the first working missions of one of the first hybrid icebreaker tugs in the world. I was commissioned to film & photograph the tugboat by the engineering company that designs and develops the hybrid drivetrain and batteries. This film is a personal re-interpretation of what I filmed, instead focusing on the fascinating life of a lifelong tugboat captain on the edge of the arctic circle.

This was filmed solo over 3 days in Luleå, Sweden in autumn 2019, with a Panasonic Lumix GH5s and DJI Mavic 2 Pro.

Will try and make an accompanying video soon (when I can get back in the studio) detailing the filming trip and the intense drone flights planning required, also about how the drone was able to share the same airspace as airforce jets on training flights. Any questions you might have please drop a comment below and I'll aim to cover them in that next video.
