Whether you are planning a drone shoot over a coastal site, need licensed archive footage for an editorial, or are unsure which series fits your brief, this page points you in the right direction. Start with the type of work you have in mind, and you will find the relevant notes on process, equipment, and next steps.
Whether you are commissioning a series for a development proposal, need licensed archive footage for an editorial deadline, or simply want to understand what is possible with a drone over a specific South African site, the fastest way forward is a short note. Tell me about the location, the timeframe, and what the images will be used for. I will reply with practical guidance on flight permissions, equipment, and how the post-production flow would work for your brief.
For commissions, licensing inquiries, or questions about a specific aerial series, the studio is reachable by phone or email. Field work often keeps the team away from the desk, so the quickest response usually comes through email.
