Pre-Production Planning

Understanding your business and your specific goals for using drone footage is where the video design process begins. Once we know we’re on the same page, we begin crafting a strategic approach for obtaining the best footage to align with the end goal of your project.

If scripts will be needed, we first ensure that we understand who will be watching the end result. Script production will match the intention of the message. Whether we’re addressing a specific pain point like quality assurance or designing a marketing video, each and every shot is carefully planned and scripted.

During pre-production planning, our team customizes every step based on company goals and develops a strategy that aligns with your unique message.

Day of Filming

Working with your schedule, we’ll plan for an ideal day and time for filming. We’ll take into consideration:

  • Time of day
  • Weather
  • Season
  • Type of footage and angles needed

Backup ‘raincheck’ dates may also be scheduled in advance. This allows production to stay on schedule.

Filming may include multi-cam shots, side-by-side shots, and forward-reverse videos to create detailed, comprehensive footage for your project.

Before filming begins, we’ll ensure that all permissions have been obtained and all legal requirements for obtaining drone footage are met. Our licensed operators are very experienced with these obligations.

Filming may require only one day or a series of days. This depends on the number of locations, the area of filming, and your vision for the final product.

Post-Production Editing

When we have captured all the raw footage we’ll need to produce the best video possible, we’ll apply our expertise and experience throughout the editing process.

It is always our goal to produce a final product that is results-driven and impactful — something you and your team can be proud of. We even offer performance monitoring services if your video will be used in an online marketing campaign.

We’re not just another video company that happens to have a drone. Houston Drone Video truly understands what it takes to produce drone videos that lead to results. Whether you’re on an inspection deadline or want to boost the organic traffic to your website, we’ve got you covered. 

Houston Drone Video Includes Raw Footage or Finished Videos (or Both) Based on Your Construction Company’s Unique Needs

We know that in the construction industry, drone footage is frequently used for project and site monitoring — not marketing or sales. 

That’s why we also specialize in high-quality raw footage that can be used by contractors, inspectors, and stakeholders for many reasons including site surveys, safety, training, and theft prevention.

But maybe you’re looking for a full-blown television advertisement that requires drone video production. Not an issue, we do that too!

Your imagination is the only limit to our services. You dream it, we do what we can to make it happen. Schedule a free consultation, pitch your goals, and we’ll do the rest.

The FAA can also advocate for criminal sanctions including a prison sentence of up to three years and $250,000 in fines.
