Motion Pictures, TV and Web
Freelance Aerial Cinematography and Photography
Serving the independent film industry and real estate businesses, dr1cam can film or photograph your location or scenes using anything from a quiet and unobstusive micro-drone for your website or brochure to a heavy lift machine shooting 4k DCI anamorphic cinema quality footage for your latest production.
All of dr1cam's aerial systems are stills photography capable, plus its operators are veteran photographers, ensuring top quality stills camera originals for all your web or print needs.
dr1cam is especially attuned to the needs of the independent film producer, providing inexpensive production packages with general liability insurance coverage of up to $5 million - per flight.
Full FAA certification and pre-flight clearance means no more looking over one's shoulder after screenings or YouTube releases for a visit from the authorities about the permit-free, snatched run-and-gun footage one might have paid pennies on the dollar for.
Let dr1cam get you the shots you need, at the price you can afford, without the risk.
Special Events
Special events aerial coverage might seem to be a matter of simply "throwing a drone up into the air and hitting the record button".
Certainly, when one watches a drone advert or a Youtube video of a good drone operator at work, it looks that way.
However, special events tend to occur around people, and there are definite Federal rules and regulations to ensure the safety of those people, especially when flying nearby.
Plus, there are always other aircraft in the vicinity, heliports, schools, and other venues where there are people around. Not to mention the local authorities.
DR1cam researches all locations for flight restrictions and other safety concerns before we fly, and then fully insures each and every flight individually for general liability insurance between $1 million and $5 million.
So now you can have great coverage of that special moment, shot from on high, just like in the movies, without the risk that comes with "throwing our drones into the air".


Post Production
After the shoot, rest assured that we have post-production covered.
Shelley Lawrence has photographed and published several high-quality books and is well-versed in the ins and outs of Lightroom and Photoshop, and Chris Ross Leong has been a Hollywood film and TV editor for the past 23 years, with many imdb credits and international awards to his name.
Software used includes Avid, Premiere Pro, Final Cut, Lightworks and Resolve v14 editing systems, Pro Tools, Fairlight/CMI, Soundtrack and Sound One audio and music production and post, Color and Resolve grading, After Effects, LightWave, Cinema 4D 3D-CGI, and more in our 4K DCI
capable in-house facility.
Stills or Video - sorted!

OPERATING HOURS
By appointment only: usually up to half an hour before sunrise to half an hour after sunset, 7 days a week.
