AERIAL FILMING
Thought aerial filming was just for big budget film productions? Think again! Today you don’t need to hire a helicopter or plane to capture aerial footage; you can simply use a UAV drone. Here we’ll explain some of the benefits of aerial filming and how you can use it to improve your video production.

Why use drone filming? Quite honestly it provides some of the most spectacular footage for a multitude of uses. If you’re filming a large area to show incredible scale or a promotional shot that needs the ‘wow’ factor, drone footage has no rival.
At a cost that’s not as expensive as you might think, more and more brands are turning to drone filming to set their video content apart. Whether it’s for storytelling, cinematography or necessity it’s the perfect solution.
It’s great for capturing dramatic vistas, tracking movements and giving the audience a bird’s eye view. You can even capture footage as your drone flies over and under objects, making the audience feel like they’re flying too.
Drone footage can either be moving or still imagery. Both designed for maximum impact!
We create high quality content from the air that is unique, targeted and engaging. Our goal is to tailor every production to achieve your goals.
We work with you from both an artistic and business/marketing perspective to ensure the final product serves your needs in the strongest manner possible. Our video services cover all facets of production, including and not limited to: pre-production concepts, filming and editing.
We’ve worked on a host of varying projects using drone footage to its most spectacular capabilities, our work isn’t just filming and editing, we can apply our motion graphics expertise to the footage captured. For example, we can combine live aerial photography with 3D rendered footage for property development and architecture, this is just one of many ways we can give your drone footage an extra boost of post-production magic.

Drones in general have featured in the news when disrupting airports, this is why we operate our drones according to all local authorities’ requirements and permissions including the CAA.
Our aerial drones are flown by fully certified CAA Pilots licensed by EuroUSC Ltd. In the UK, the regulations require you to have a license to fly unmanned aerial vehicles for commercial purposes. Our two CAA pilots have that license, so you can have the peace of mind that filming practices will be carried out safely and legally.
When considering drone filming, we know it can be daunting when documentation is required from authorities such as land owners/operators. We’re more than happy to supply any information you need to make the process much simpler for you.
