We’re thrilled to announce that we are now certified and offering FPV (First-Person View) Drone video production services. This immersive style of filming delivers thrilling new angles, perfect for interior tours, exterior flyovers, and everything in between.
What Exactly Is FPV?
FPV stands for “First-Person View.” Basically, it’s like seeing the world through the drone’s eyes in real time. The result is dramatically different footage. Swooping shots through narrow corridors, seamless transitions from inside to outside, and lightning-fast action sequences. This is a whole new way to create breathtaking visuals that traditional drones can’t always capture.
Why FPV Is a Game-Changer
Unique Cinematic Angles: FPV drones can zip around corners and in tight spots, revealing viewpoints that were once impossible.
Smooth & Agile: Their compact design and powerful motors enable fluid, continuous shots without missing a beat.
Incredible Visual Impact: Audiences will be blown away by the dynamic perspective, making it perfect for attention-grabbing content.
Versatility: The same FPV drone can capture sweeping outdoor shots and then dive inside a building without a hitch.
Shooting Indoors and Outdoors
Traditional drones have some limitations when it comes to filming inside buildings or navigating confined areas. FPV drones, however, are smaller and easier to maneuver in tight spaces. That means interior, exterior, and everything in between is now fair game, opening up endless creative possibilities for your projects.
Nerds in Goggles? You Bet!
We do look a little nerdy wearing our FPV goggles. But the results speak for themselves: stunning, up-close footage that puts your audience right in the action and provides your audience with a different perspective and movement that you just can't achieve with a traditional drone or camera.
We Still Love Traditional Drones
Our love affair with classic drones is far from over. While FPV drones excel at capturing fast-paced, immersive visuals, traditional drones often boast higher-resolution cameras and more advanced stabilization for that ultra-polished look. We continue to offer both services, so you can choose the best fit for your project’s creative and technical needs.
Sample Success Story: East Village "Open"
Check out our recent project for East Village below. We took to the skies (and Pickleball court) to capture a dynamic overview of the new public bathroom and Pickleball court recently opened in East Village, weaving through doorways, entrances, and highlighting its unique energy. The end result was a great way to feature East Village "Open" and garnered over 30,000 views on Instragram alone.
