From the Sea to the City

Producing a portrait of the Thames

Chocolate Films was commissioned to create a new permanent video installation for the foyer of Museum of London, Docklands.

The film is a portrait of the river from the estuary all the way down to the museum itself on the Isle of Dogs.

The river from every angle

Shot from land, boats and helicopters, the film uses a wide range of filming styles to paint a portrait of the post-industrial river. The film features key locations along the way including Southend, Cliffe Pools, Gateway Port, Tilbury Docks, Rainham Marshes, The Thames Barrier and the Woolwich Ferry.

This is an excerpt from the full film, which can be seen in the foyer of Museum of London, Docklands.
