Urban Exploring Videos

Did this site with @Tk.z.t and @PatientTheory . Took a while to get in the site and navigate around to find the right building/crane. The crane did not seem very sturdy for how tall it was, and when I climbed the jib it started swaying back and forth. Good times! Check the video.

 

Heres my exploration video at ROF Featherston, Factory Noº7

 

Hi, I wasn't sure if this would be the relevant thread, but I made a stop motion/hand drawn animation using my photography from various abandoned locations as the backgrounds (Hartwood Asylum, Whittingham Asylum, Denbigh Asylum, Thornton Fever Hospital, etc.)

I also built a set to resemble an abandoned room in an asylum. The film was inspired by the histories of the old asylums and various patients' stories. I wanted to capture the atmosphere of the locations in the animation.

Hope you enjoy!

 

Despite only being 85m this site has amazing views over London. It's also very architecturally appealing and has really nice cladding. Really happy I was able to get the crane done. I have done it twice for sunset now, and then once right after sunset to climb the crane. If you haven't done it, for fuck's sake, do it. Definitely my favourite construction site in London at the moment. Check the vid.

Thanks for looking,

Been a while before I've been able to climb a crane. Keep on almost getting fucked by security and having to sprint out of sites. Anyways, here is a climb from a certain recent saturday sunset. I honestly don't know how we didn't get caught because we were seen by soooo many people. Didn't bring my actual camera up there because I didn't think I would have enough time to take pics, so I just recorded on gopro. One of the best sunsets I've ever seen! Check the vid. Visited with @dus.ta

Recently I've been trying a bit of motion picture with a cheap action cam type thing and piecing together the clips in iMovie unfortunately it always seems to loose the sound but the camera mic is pretty useless anyway!

Thoresby colliery opened in 1925.

The first two shafts in 1925 were sunk to 690 metres (2,260 ft). The shafts were deepended by 109 metres (358 ft) in the 1950s. After privatization of the National Coal Board in the 1990s the mine was taken over by RJB Mining (later UK Coal as UK Coal Thoresby Ltd).

Coal seams worked by or available to the pit included the Parkgate seam (from 1977 after closure of Ollerton Colliery); the Deep Soft seam; and the High Hazels seam (working ceased 1983).

In April 2014 it was announced that the pit would close July 2015. The colliery's 600 employees had been reduced to 360 by the time of the closure in July 2015.

great morning mooching around with Goldie87 & MD

Me and my friends decided to visit Swan Mine in Kingsdown. From what I've gathered via bits and bobs online, it dates back over 100 years and the sandstone that was mined was used for the local architecture around Wiltshire and Gloucester. Part 2 is the exploration of a mile long WW2 ammunitions tunnel. We didn't do it all, and these are short videos just to show parts of it. I'll post it on the appropriate section of the forums.
