Question 2

Is aerial photography really included free with drone video?

Accepted Answer

Yes — every drone video commission includes colour-graded 4K aerial stills at no extra cost. We are already on site with the drone; photography adds minimal time and significant value. You receive the still images alongside your video cuts in the same 48-72hr delivery.

Question 4

Do you colour grade in-house for commercial property clients?

Question 10

What happens if the weather is poor on shoot day?

We check conditions the morning of your shoot. If wind speed, cloud cover, or visibility falls below CAA safe operating thresholds, we reschedule to the next available window. Your fee is held against the new date with no cancellation charge.

Can drone be combined with FPV video, photography and 3D virtual tour in one visit?
