What our clients say…

Aerial Picture Company were instrumental not just in meticulous planning of our ambitious shot, but also had valuable suggestions how to improve it creatively. An all-around great experience, we will be back! David Raedeker, Director of Photography – Swimming with Men

I hired team APC on several productions, including some very challenging shoots.  The team are extremely professional and a great asset to any shoot, but most of all the footage always exceeds expectations, and works so well in the edit – which is why I’ve  used them time and time again. Sarah Lewis, TV and Film Line Producer

Team APC have provided aerial filming for me on a number of drama shoots and have always produced excellent footage that has fitted the brief as discussed. They are knowledgeable with regards to their equipment, regulations, and ways to achieve difficult sequences. I wouldn’t hesitate to engage them on any show I require drone footage on. Adam Knopf, Line Producer, Drama

What is brilliant about the drone footage the Aerial Picture Company captures is that they think like directors. Filming sequences which will cut into the rest of your shots. The team enjoy being collaborative and working out how the drone footage can add to your story. This really paid dividends and having drone shots that cut into pieces to camera really worked well on screen. And on top of all that they’re self-sufficient and reliable! Charlotte Hindle, Producer

Aerial Picture Company provided the series aerial filming for Vanity Fair, a major new drama for ITV and Amazon, produced by Mammoth Screen and filmed over Autumn and Winter 2017 / 2018.
