Drone Videography Rotorua

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

In Rotorua

Rotorua is one of New Zealand’s best-known visitor destinations, with geothermal landscapes, lakes, the Redwoods and a strong centre of Māori culture and performance. It is a natural place for tourism, culture and outdoor content.

Billie travels to Rotorua for productions, bringing the full team or working with local crew depending on the job.

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.
