Planning & FAQs
From first conversation to final formation.
Five stages, planned around your venue, the approvals your show needs and the weather on the night.
Production process
- 1
Consultation
We start with the moment you want your audience to remember — not a drone count.
- 2
Creative development
Story, sequence, soundtrack and brand moments are designed into a full production concept.
- 3
Choreography & approvals
Flight paths are animated and simulated, then submitted for the licensing and airspace approvals the show requires.
- 4
Rehearsal
Technical rehearsal on site, with weather contingency planning built into the schedule.
- 5
Performance
Our crew delivers the show on the night, subject to conditions on site.
What we plan for.
- Site planning
- Every production starts with the venue: launch area, audience position, sightlines and surroundings are reviewed before a concept is finalised.
- Flight operations
- Flight paths are animated and simulated before they ever leave the ground, then rehearsed on site with our production crew.
- Approvals
- We handle the permitting and airspace coordination each show requires. Performances proceed only once the necessary approvals are in place.
- Weather planning
- Performances depend on site suitability, weather and required approvals. Contingency planning is built into the schedule and agreed with you in advance.
- Coordination
- We work alongside your venue, planners and production teams so the show lands on cue within your event.
