A team of CAA-certified drone pilots, spotters, filmmakers, photographers, and digital marketers working in Southampton, with permissions for professional commercial work in the UK and overseas.

We’re the go-to drone team in Southampton and the wider Hampshire and Solent region for promotional videos, event coverage, aerial property and roof surveys, FPV drone shoots, 360º panoramas and time-lapses, tourism videos, and more.

Our impeccable safety record has earned us special CAA permissions, allowing us to fly further, higher, and closer than other drone companies, in more places, circumstances, and conditions. We’re also members of Drone Safe Register.

We’re very well-connected within the drone, filmmaking, and advertising industries, and can assemble larger teams for projects of all scales.

Our Services

Video Editing

We can create informative and entertaining videos for your projects and campaigns, edited for every format: from Instagram Stories to the big screen.

Motion Graphics

From social-ready text overlays to animated segments stylized after your business’ visual identity, we’ll use titles, transitions, and motion graphics to tell your brand’s story.

Cinema Quality

Your projects deserve cutting-edge quality. For aerial, we use Zenmuse X7 lenses docked on our DJI Inspire 3 and X9 full frame sensor. On the ground, we use Blackmagic, RED and Fuji Film cameras.

Ground Shoots

Your ground visuals need the same level of creative strategy and expertise as your aerial imagery. We have the equipment and experience to capture your ideas perfectly.

FPV Drone
Flights

We’re qualified for first-person view drone flights, using our cinewhoops and 360º camera setup to capture exciting freestyle aerial footage for your videos.

360º Panoramas
and Videos

Showcase your business with 360 degree photos and videos, from ground and air. They’re a key part of online marketing. Boost engagement, click-throughs, and sales.

All-Day Filming

We’re equipped with portable battery charging generators to keep our drones running all day. Battery swaps take less than a minute, so not a moment of your shoot will be missed.

Full-Service Marketing

We’ve worked on marketing campaigns of all scopes. We’ll expertly integrate aerial visuals into your social ads, sales funnels, and content and SEO marketing strategies.

Studio Shoots &
Green Screens

Enrich your interview, training, and explainer videos with clean backgrounds, pro studio lighting, and green screens, on-location or at Solent Sky Services’ headquarters.

All-Day
Aerial Filming

We’re equipped with battery charging generators to keep our drones running all day. Ideal for lengthy conferences and cons, sunrise-to-sunset festivals, and all-day sports schedules.

Team Training

We can train your team in integrating drone videos into project workflows, both from a creative perspective (edits, campaigns) and a technical viewpoint (file formats, processing 360º footage).

Interviews &
Voiceovers

We’ll write and record multi-angle interviews, to be spliced with other footage. We can also record voice-overs with you or professional narrators of all ages, accents, and genders.

Southampton Drone Case Study: Solent Stevedores

Specialist port operator Solent Stevedores approached us just before lockdown struck, with a brief for three ‘visually-stunning’ videos. One would cover their general operations; another would showcase their industry-leading freight rail services; and the third would capture their work within the cruise industry.

The feedback to our videos was overwhelmingly kind, with Solent Stevedores stakeholders saying things like: “this gave me goosebumps,” “visually stunning work,” and “you’ve exceeded our expectations.” Read the full story on our blog →

Our first video for Solent Stevedores captured the cargo handling titan’s industry-leading freight rail services. A cinematic, high-energy edit, featuring widescreen 4K footage.

Our second video covered the Solent Stevedores team’s hard work, particularly through the curveballs thrown by a global pandemic.

Southampton Drone Case Study: Colva Care’s corporate showcase event

Southampton IT firm Colva Care sure know how to entertain their clients! Their annual showcase event in 2019 featured everything from boat rides to a Gordon Ramsay impersonator — the two core staples of any corporate event, of course.

We filmed and photographed the whole day. Rad drone marine shots included! Equipment used: DJI Inspire II, Sony A7R cameras, Sigma Art lenses, Canon 5D bodies, and Premiere Pro.

“Great guys — amazing work, both drone- and land- based. They had the eye for what we wanted to achieve, and we now have some amazing footage. I would highly recommend.”
