Professional Drone Cinematography

For Film and Television the quality of the original captured image is of utmost importance. Often in the past the quality of aerial images would be compromised because of the cost or logistics of getting cameras of comparable quality in the air. With our heavy lift drones you no longer need to compromise or re-write your budget. We can lift payloads of up to 9Kg so the Arri or RED camera you are using on the ground can now be just a useful in the air.

Professional Drone Photography

The Insurance and Surveying industries rely heavily on high quality image data. With our larger drones we can lift sophisticated cameras along with other sensors to capture highly detail aerial images of areas that are traditionally costly or dangerous to access. We can also cover large areas very quickly, meaning you could survey hundreds of acres in a fraction of the time it would take you using traditional methods.

Construction and Architecture

Using drones to gather aerial images for the processing of 3D Maps and orthomosaics is a highly valuable tool when planning any building or construction project. We can provide CAD ready, 3D models for use with your projects or offer time-lapse photography or video to showcase the development over longer periods of time. We can even take your archetectual drawings and load them into our ground station software, allowing us to plot waypoints linked to structures that aren’t even built yet.

Agriculture and Conservation

With acres of ground to cover, having support from the air either for checking on your herd or inspecting the crop yield, should be a vital consideration for all those in agriculture. As well as high resolution photography and videography we can provide detailed NDVI maps to assist growers in producing profitable returns. Additionally, documenting trends and changes in the local environment are other exceptional uses of an aerial imaging platform.

About Echo Alfa

Professional Drone Photography & Cinematography

Echo Alfa are a UK CAA approved drone operator. We provide professional drone photography and cinematography services to clients all over the world. We have over 25 years of combined experience in video production and have been flying camera drones and unmanned helicopters since 2004.

We want to offer our clients a fast and effective service when it comes to working in areas where a standard Operational Authorisation just doesn’t cut it. Often our clients need us to be able to acquire shots in a very shot time-frame. The additional work required to control large areas of public space, especially when road closures and traffic management would be required, can often make this impossible. We have delivered a very concise Operating Safety Case that shows how we can operate much closer to people and structures outside of our control, in a very safe manner. This has afforded us additional permissions that distinguish us from 98% of other UK commercial drone operators.

We are a friendly and knowledgeable team who are always looking to provide a new take on a project. If you are looking for a professional, commercial drone operator, then please give us a call.
