AERIAL FILMING

Site Survey/Booking/Copyright
We cannot operate our drones in rain or high winds as this is both dangerous to the drone and to others.
Clients may have specific requirements that restrict us to flying at specific times. Unfortunately, weather
conditions will dictate when we can fly.

Requirements from our Clients
We will require the location of the shoot (with an exact postcode), proposed date and a brief containing
as much background information as possible on what you would like us to film.

Site Survey
We can do an initial online site survey to see if the shoot is possible and if there are any other factors,
flight restrictions or permissions that need to be considered. This could involve an onsite visit pre filming
if we feel it necessary.

Booking & Deposit
If the result of our site survey is positive then we will send you a quote with a provisional date and costs.
We will require a 25% deposit once a date is confirmed.

Weather
We monitor the weather forecast in advance of any shoot. If the signs are not good, we will contact you
to see whether you have a backup date.
If possible, we will reschedule the shoot to the next suitable date and the booking deposit will be
transferred to that date.
If the shoot cannot be re-scheduled due to factors out of our control, (client availability) then we will not
be able to offer a refund for the deposit.
If its decided that we stay with the original date and we have bad weather, we will do our best to stay on
site for a reasonable time in the hope that we have a change in the weather to fly the drone.
If we arrive on site and are unable to shoot on the day we will have to charge in full, but offer clients a
25% discount off the price of the second shoot on the follow up date.

Cancellation
If the client cancels the shoot within 7 days of the scheduled date the 25% deposit will not be refunded.
