Aerial footage that adds context and perspective

Aerial filming allows locations, environments and activity to be captured from angles that are not possible from the ground. Used carefully, drone footage adds scale, clarity and visual interest to a video.

We provide aerial filming and photography as part of wider video projects, helping audiences understand location, layout and environment more clearly. From establishing shots to detailed overviews, our focus is always on how the footage supports the overall story.

Over the years, we have used drones to film premises, follow activity, and document progress on sites and outdoor projects. These perspectives help elevate video content while remaining purposeful and relevant.

Creative and
practical aerial filming

Our aerial filming is suited to a wide range of uses, including:

  • Establishing shots that set the scene
  • Progress and site overview footage
  • Movement and activity tracking
  • High resolution aerial photography

We approach aerial filming with the same care as ground based filming. Shots are planned, framed and captured with the final edit in mind, ensuring the footage integrates naturally with the rest of your video.

Experience, safety and reliability

All drone flights are carried out by fully qualified and insured pilots. Safety, planning and compliance are built into every project, giving you confidence throughout the process.

Beyond flying drones, we bring experience as filmmakers and photographers. This means every aerial shot is considered visually as well as technically, resulting in footage that feels polished and professional.
