Compare that to the typical setup time of a 30’ jib which is often times around an hour and a half. Capture aerial video in multiple locations in a short amount of time.

St Louis Drone Filming and Aerial Photography

Posted on 10/08/2016 by stlouisaerialphotography

Many people currently see drones being used in TV and film production, news bulletins and even music videos. This is only one type of application, with other industries such as farming, construction, mining, sports training to name a few.

Construction sites are utilizing them to present their work from a different perspective to prospective clients, as well as generating 3D maps. Drones are also able to generate maps from a series of photos that can then be run through software that will allow the user to measure distances or volumes without having to physically be on site.

Aerial Drone Photography and Video | Farm Footage for GMO Documentary

Posted on 02/24/2016 by stlouisaerialphotography

Our two person crew was hired by a French Production Company in charge of production for a GMO documentary. We shot a full day near Florida Missouri to gather some rather remarkable footage on such a gorgeous day. This is one view of an unedited raw clip we shot that day. This particular shot was of the farmhouse and major equipment barn.

We fly with the Inspire Cinematography platform and camera.
The Inspire has a curved lens design which eliminates distortion, and the 20mm focal length opens up your shots to a remarkably wide angle without that fish-eye look. The camera shoots video at 4K, 4096 x 2150 High Definition.

The 3-axis gimbal constantly draws on data fed by the intelligent flight controller, so it knows the aircraft’s flight parameters and computes the proper motion correction every millisecond. Such precision is only possible because of the ultra-fast, custom-made processor that is unique to the Inspire gimbal. Operating at speeds that allow the gimbal to compensate for motion and tilt in real-time, this processor controls motors on all three axes: yaw, tilt, and roll. All resulting in very smooth and completely stable shots.
