Drones
DJI Phantom 4 Pro.
This is my usual set up and up to 4K 50 fps. This is very adequate and I have seen the footage on a cinema screen at The Astor Theatre, in St. Kilda, Melbourne, for a short called ‘Blvck Gold’, which screened at The St. Kilda Film Festival, 2022.
I have full CASA licenses and certification.
Remote Pilots License sub 25 kilos (RePL)
Aeronautical Radio Operators Certificate (AROC)
Remotely Piloted Aircraft Operations Certificate (ReOC)
Every job will go through AVCRM and detailed with aerial view, airspace classification, radio frequencies, gps location with operational zones, exclusion zones, landing zones.
A job safety and risk assessment is also provided.
I have flight liability for 20 million.
I can also liaise with CASA for flights within 5.5 km of an airport, councils, if on council land or roads, Parks Victoria and the military if flying in restricted airspace.

This is for the heavy lifting cinema camera or mirrorless camera. Can also handle Tital nucleus wireless follow focus. DJI Ronin MX gimbal mounted to the drone. This requires compatible leads for the camera required.
