Drone Videography

Aerial footage that opens a film, sells a place or shows scale. Production Retainers from $1,500 NZD a month.

The service

An aerial shot can do in three seconds what a paragraph cannot: show where a place is, how big a project is, or how a road unwinds along a coast. Billie plans aerial work as part of the whole film rather than as a bolt-on, so it cuts in naturally.

What’s included

  • Aerial shot planning
  • Flight planning around airspace rules
  • Aerial and ground footage together
  • Edit and colour matched to the film
  • Stills from the air

Where Billie works

Billie works with artists, brands and emerging talent right across the country.

Our work

Aerial footage is graded and cut alongside the ground footage, so it matches the rest of the film instead of looking like stock.
