These include Bushfire Recovery (Federal Government), Road Safety (Indonesia), Senior Citizens Advocacy, and Aboriginal Remote Community Development. On the field, Drift Media has been a media provider for Cricket Australia, and the Ironman Series, as well on water camera supplier for the Bell’s Beach surfing competition.

Aside from production, Drift Media also provides media consultancy and training in all aspects of video production, film making and community capacity building projects.

Nice morning to fly over the dredge in Anderson Inlet.
With the amount of sand pumped to the Main Beach, I was expecting a bigger hole where the sand was taken from.

Interesting morning at Orchard End Farm where we installed 2 new bits of technology.

The first was a radar camera which is used to monitor cold blooded animals. Traditional field cameras use the shift in temperature between the animal and the background environment to trigger the camera. That doesnt really work for frogs and lizards so this new camera uses a ground based radar to detect their movements.
..and with water back in the lagoons, we also installed a wildlife audio recorder to capture the calls from the resident frogs

The Wetlands Project is supported by Melbourne Water- through the Australian Government's Natural Heritage Trust under the Climate-Smart Agriculture Program.
