A drone show is the only outdoor spectacle you can reshape the night before and reuse the year after.
Atlanta drone shows run to sports, festivals and corporate activations, and the metro's Class B shelf means launch-site selection is the first conversation. Stadium events add temporary flight restrictions on top, which have to be planned around rather than discovered.
Choreographed light shows for sports, corporate events, festivals and brand activations. The work is half animation and half aviation: the show is designed like motion graphics, then flown under an airspace plan with the safety case a public crowd requires. We consult on shows nationwide as well as fly them.
The Georgia Film Office coordinates statewide, and individual jurisdictions across the metro each run their own permit process. A production moving between the city, Fayette County and the studio campuses is moving between permitting authorities.
Summer humidity puts haze into long-lens aerial frames and afternoon storms are close to daily from June onward. Autumn and spring are the reliable windows, and Georgia's mild winters keep exterior work going most of the year.
We shoot the downtown skyline, the studio campuses, and the Georgia countryside — and we travel. CineDrones works nationwide, so if your production is basing in Atlanta and shooting somewhere else entirely, that is a normal week for us.
Fleet sized to the design rather than a fixed package, because resolution in the sky is a function of aircraft count.
Our aerial units have worked on Ozark, Jack Ryan, Bosch, Mayans M.C., SEAL Team, NCIS: New Orleans, Fear the Walking Dead, American Horror Story, Modern Family, 9-1-1, Goliath, The Resident, Raising Dion, Castle Rock, Doctor Sleep and Chef's Table, for Netflix, Amazon, Apple, HBO, Hulu, Showtime, Sony, CBS, AMC, MTV and Bravo.

It depends entirely on what you want in the sky. Simple logos and text need far fewer aircraft than animated sequences. We size the fleet to the storyboard rather than selling a package and cutting the design to fit.
Longer than most clients expect. The airspace approval and the safety case are the schedule drivers, not the animation. Start the conversation months out for anything over a public crowd.
There is a defined go/no-go framework agreed before the event, with wind and visibility limits set in advance. Building the contingency into the contract is part of doing this properly.
