For many years, the only way to capture aerial video footage was by hiring a full-sized helicopter and a licensed pilot to navigate a camera crew. As you would imagine, this process was incredibly costly, meaning that aerial video footage was typically only accessible to blockbuster movie makers and businesses with huge marketing budgets. This was until the introduction of drones into the world of videography.

The two key the benefits of drone videography are the affordability and ease of which you are able to capture capturing unique and high-quality video footage! From indoor conferences to outdoor events, drones can capture stunning aerial video footage, which can then be used to create high-quality digital marketing content. Using eye-catching aerial footage can also help your business stand out from the crowd, and fly above the competition (pun definitely intended!)

3.   Set up and Shoot!

Another benefit of drone videography is that this can be easily set up and begin capturing video footage incredibly quickly.

In the past, capturing aerial shots was a time-consuming process due to helicopters being the only feasible method of capturing high aerial and action shots. This method required a lot of planning and preparation, as well as a lot of staff and precaution measures to ensure the safety of everybody involved.

However, with drone videography, only a single pilot and camera operator are required to begin capturing aerial footage. As a result, a videography team can arrive, set up, and be up and running in under 5 minutes!
