Aerial Cinematography (UAV/Drone)

Since our inception in 1997, we have filmed countless projects from the air using traditional fixed wing and rotary aircraft. As drone UAV RPAS systems entered the market, we jumped on board fully embracing the possibilities available with this new technology. We were able to apply our practical flying experience to our drone operations helping us visualize shots before we even leave the ground. We are fully insured and Transport Canada compliant with the new drone/UAV/RPAS registration & regulations which came into effect June 1, 2019.

Drones are fantastic camera systems for operations with a relatively low altitude typically under 400 feet. For aerial cinematography in higher elevations, longer distances, and in otherwise drone restricted airspace, helicopters and fixed wing aircraft are the only way to go for safe, compliant photo & video content acquisition. We have strong working relationships with various helicopter and fixed wing operators should your project require this platform.

We have also developed a 4k cable camera system. This system allows our camera to remain safely tethered for both indoor and outdoor operation. The camera can safely operate in close proximity to people and obstacles without the risk or turbulence of traditional drone systems. This cable camera also allows for complex shots to be captured repeatedly take after take.
