APRIL 2026 - Filming Beluga Lagoon at the Barrowlands

August 18, 2026 by Kirk Watson in Camera Operator, Drone filming Scotland

A great couple of nights filming Beluga Lagoon at the legendary Barrowland Ballroom in Glasgow, probably my favourite concert venue anywhere.

I was there filming material for an upcoming Beluga Lagoon project, capturing the atmosphere around the Barrowlands, some drone shots outside, and plenty of the live performances across two brilliant sold-out nights.

It was also great to meet Oscar-winning actress Emma Thompson, who was there with her family and, it turns out, is a massive Beluga Lagoon fan.

A fantastic weekend in Glasgow, with just enough work to justify being there and a very enjoyable night out afterwards!

NOVEMBER 2024 - Filming pub Bingo in Glasgow for Opposite Land Productions

November 25, 2024 by Kirk Watson in Camera Operator, Corporate films

Fun night filming Flamingo Bingo in the ‘Slug and Lettuce’ in Glasgow, this was for a mate Sam who runs www.oppositelandproductions.com who film pubs, restaurants and buildings throughout the UK. I often help out on the Scotland shoots. The second time filming in this pub.

The team put on a fun night with this Bingo. Ewen dressed in the flamingo suit does a great job keeping it fun while looking a bit silly in his suit. Adam the manager kept me right when things were happening so I could follow bits of the action:) Gregor always seemed to be concentrating hard on his seating arrangements. Amy and Connar did a good job making some cocktails for the camera which were then handed out randomly. I just wished I could have joined in the fun lol. A few screen grabs below from the night.
