Aerial Video

The infinite possibilities of Aerial Video are now open to everyone

With the advent of lower cost Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV's) or 'drones', the era of stunning aerial video is upon us. This opens the potential for new and captivating footage that could not be achieved easily before. Now video can be created to engage a viewer's attention faster, bringing new levels of inspiration, wonder and beauty to corporate videos.

Aerial Video brings a whole host of amazing benefits

  • UAV's can reach places and shoot at angles which are simply not possible by other means. 
  • They can take off from virtually anywhere, and subject to safety regulations, fly lower and in more confined spaces than traditional helicopters can.
  • Aerial footage combined with the right music, creates a deeper emotional engagement with viewers, keeps them watching longer, and elevates the potential for viewer connection with your brand.
  • Perfect for dynamic aerial shots of buildings, landscape projects, large sites, hard to reach places and more.
  • Great value, not only because UAV video is far more cost-effective that traditional aerial video, but also in terms of the potential to generate an increased response from your customers.

Aerial Video can be used in a wide range of applications

  • Corporate Events
  • Architects
  • Estate Agents
  • Theme Parks
  • Structural Engineers
  • Surveyors
  • Archaeological Sites
  • Heritage Sites
  • Film Production

Aerial Video FAQ's

We fly state-of-the-art Unmanned Flying Vehicles (UAV's) that can capture inspiring video of a wide variety of locations and attractions. Below are some of the frequently asked questions we get asked about Aerial Video. If you don't find the answer to your question, feel free to call us and we'll be happy to help.

Are you licensed and qualified ?

Yes. Our pilot is Remote Pilot Qualified (RPQ) and licensed by the CAA to operate UAV's for commercial use.

Are you insured ?

Yes. We have public liability insurance for up to £5 million.

What equipment do you use ?

We have two complete UAV systems. 

Our budget solution employs a GoPro HD camera attached to a DJI Phantom II quad-copter. This is a small system that requires only a single operator. It's quick to launch and produces some beautiful images in full HD.

Our high-end solution uses the latest 4K Lumix GH4 camera and is mounted on a DJI S900 Hexacopter. This state-of-the-art equipment produces some stunning video and is operated by a qualified pilot and a separate camera operator.

Does the weather affect flying ?

Yes. Aerial video is very much affected by the weather, so some flexibility when booking is required. We cannot for example fly in the rain or when it is too windy. Beyond that it is also worth considering that Aerial Video simply looks better when the sun is out !

Are there any limitations with flying UAV's ?

Apart from the weather (see above), there are other factors that need to be considered before flying. Most of these revolve around safety requirements; heavily built up areas, electricity masts, air traffic restrictions and members of the public in the vicinity etc. When you make a booking our first task is to perform a full risk assessment on the location and let you know any restrictions we may have at the shoot. Occasionally, we may need to visit the site prior to the shoot to carry out a risk assessment.

Can you film indoors ?

Yes. We can shoot in large indoor spaces with permission from the owner.

What are the advantages of UAV's over say helicopters ?

UAV's have several advantages over tradition aerial video shot from helicopters. For a start, UAV's are a lot more cost effective. In addition, UAV's can fly straight from the ground and go up to 400 feet high. Helicopters, by contrast must usually stay above 500 feet. UAV's also allow for some interesting possibilities such as low flying over landscapes and water, and are much more manoeuvrable than larger craft.

Can you give me an idea of pricing ?

We have 2 price points depending on the equipment we use:

1) GoPro/Quad-copter rig pricing starts at £650 for a session.

2) The GH4 4K camera plus Hexacopter rig pricing starts at £950 for a session.

If you are unsure which setup is best for your requirements, give us a call and we can discuss the advantages of each. Both pricing points depend partly on the particulars of the requirements. Pricing does not include travel costs or accommodation if needed.

We also require a 50% deposit upon booking.

What is your cancellation and rescheduling policy ?

We are happy to reschedule due to inclement weather for no extra charge. We normally assess the weather in the area of the shoot both the day before and in the morning of the shoot and advise accordingly.

Cancellations forfeit the deposit.
