Music Videos - HeliCam aerial filming
Producers and Directors of music videos can add enormous production value by shooting aerial footage from the HeliCam drone. Below is a photograph of the HeliCam working on the video shoot for the new Take That song, 'Love Love'.
The HeliCam is extremely versatile which gives it great value for money - as well as offering smooth aerial footage from up to 400ft, it can be used to simulate crane shots and track and dolly shots. It is electric powered for non intrusive indoor studio work and it will also pack down for international travel.
With the aid of a stable downlink image to a 7 inch monitor and a separate manual control for camera roll and tilt, the HeliCam will fly into almost any position required by the director. (Safety and physical limitations permitting).

We constantly re-invest in our equipment, technology and design to ensure that we are offering the highest quality footage from the smoothest platform possible. Here are some of the features that will be of interest to anyone looking for this service.
