What is aerial video?
Aerial video is literally a moving image captured from the air. With today’s modern technology, it is almost always captured by unmanned aerial systems, or “drones” as they are more commonly known. These drones are lightweight remote control aircraft that can support a video camera; they have created a fantastic opportunity to capture shots, previously only available from a very expensive helicopter. This is fantastic, as it means that even companies with smaller budgets can achieve truly impressive corporate videos.
How will aerial video benefit my business?

This will help increase sales conversions or brand appeal after viewers watch your business video.

Plus, it offers a fantastic opportunity to showcase your location’s perks, access, and surrounding features from angles that weren’t previously available.
Who can produce aerial video for my business?

The cost of aerial video can vary due to the complex nature of some jobs.
