Planning Your Drone and Aerial Video Production

While putting a camera up in the air is no longer nearly as cost-intensive as it used to be, pre-production planning is still of utmost importance. The more thoroughly planned each shot is, the better the final edit. Not only that, but there is also the matter of permits and licenses. Depending on the precise shooting location and local laws, a permit might be easy or more time-consuming to obtain. Each Asia Pacific country has its own drone policies that the crew should strictly adhere to. Overlooking this important factor may potentially delay or halt production entirely.

As far as equipment is concerned, there are a plethora of options to choose from. Many productions opt to shoot with a commercially available drone. These can include the DJI Mavic Pro, Inspire 1 & 2, or the Phantom 4. Alternatively, we can build custom drones to specifications, with rigs that can carry the heaviest cameras, lenses, and gear. With years of successful drone and aerial video production in the Asia Pacific, Morgan and Preston have the experience necessary to ensure success.
