What’s your vision?

We know you have a vision and are passionate about it. And our passion is to make that vision a reality.

We can get that in one!

Follow that convertible down a long and winding private driveway to a stately, Gatsbyesque mansion. Continue the shot up and through a window into an elegant sitting room. End on a close-up of a beautiful woman as she lifts a glass of wine to her lips. All in a single, seamless shot. Or the racing canyon road shot that goes into the tunnel. We fly behind, on sides and in front. What previously might have taken days to set up, rehearse, and shoot — changing to tracking or truck — can now be accomplished in minutes.

A Full Aerial Arsenal

Stellar Visioning is equipped with an extensive array of drones/UAVs. Small and fast quads that can enter tight spaces, and windows, with speeds up to 100mph for high chases using FPV (First Person View) technology.
Our heavy lift drones have the unique option to mount a cinema cam and lens on top of the airframe as well. Follow the train as it goes over a bridge, then shoot the tracks above from below as the train speeds by. Shoot straight up at the stars as trees fall to the sides. The possibilities are endless, as you can probably imagine. And we’d love to show you some other ideas, including how to use drones to replace many tracking shots.
Giant multi-rotors such as our Alta X shine for heavy payload cameras and high winds, with flight times of up to 30 minutes.

With us, you’re covered.

Aerial shooting involves complicated rules and regulations. And productions that don’t have proper flying credentials are being shut down all the time. With Stellar Visioning, that won’t happen to you. We are a fully insured (film industry standard) aerial cinematography company with FAA Section 333 Exemption and Part 107 licenses, including night flying.

Money Shot Cinema Drone

The number one solution for professional cinema FPV
The Money Shot FPV (First Person View) drone is capable of almost unreal aerobatics, your aerial shots are no longer bound by a gimbal or constrained to straight and level flight. Or if you need that level horizon we can mount one as well. FPV maneuverability is finally achievable using a cinema camera!
