Aerial cinematography
Aerial cinematography involves capturing moving images from elevated perspectives using aircraft, drones, or helicopters. It enhances storytelling by providing expansive, dynamic views of landscapes, cities, or events, adding visual impact and context. Technicians use specialized equipment and techniques to operate cameras smoothly from high or hard-to-reach positions, allowing filmmakers to create dramatic, immersive footage that would be difficult or impossible to achieve from the ground. This method is widely used in film, television, advertising, and documentary production to deliver striking visuals and a sense of scale.
