Why hire Media Furrate for aerial work
Licensed and by the book
Your flight is handled by an FAA-licensed drone pilot who follows FAA rules. If your site sits in restricted airspace, we tell you what waivers are needed.
4K aerial cameras
We fly state-of-the-art aircraft with 4K cameras, so your footage and stills hold up on TV, on your website and in print pieces.
A pilot who thinks like a producer
Our pilot works in video production every day. He picks the right speed, height and approach so each shot fits the story you want to tell.
Cheaper than a helicopter
Drones give you wide-area views for a fraction of the cost of renting a helicopter and crew.
Quiet and low impact
Drones make little noise, so we can shoot weddings, rallies and outdoor events without disrupting them.
Full video team behind it
Need more than aerials? We also write, shoot, edit and add motion graphics, so one team can finish the whole piece.
What drone videography with us looks like
We start by learning about your business and what the footage has to do. Then we plan the flight: the speed, the height and the approach that make the shot work. You get 4K aerial video, still photos, or both.
Aerial work can stand alone or become part of a bigger project. We are a turnkey video firm, so the same team can write, shoot on the ground, edit and add animation and motion graphics.

What happens after you send the form
We talk it through
We set up a free consultation to learn about your site, your goals and the shots you have in mind.

We confirm the location, flag any restricted airspace that needs a waiver, and map out the flight and shot list.
We fly and deliver
Our licensed pilot captures the 4K video and photos, then we edit and hand off the finished files.
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to hire a drone videographer?
It depends on the site, how much footage you need and whether you want editing with it. Drone work costs far less than renting a helicopter. Send your details and we will quote your job. The first consultation is free.
Are you licensed to fly commercially?
Yes. Our pilot is FAA-licensed and all flights follow FAA rules.
What if my site is in restricted airspace?
We check the airspace first. If the site is restricted, waivers are required from the proper authorities, and we will tell you before the shoot.
Where do you fly?
We are based in Baton Rouge and work across Louisiana, the Gulf South and the Southeastern United States, including Texas, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida.
Can you shoot photos as well as video?
Yes. We capture 4K aerial video and aerial still photos. Property owners use the wide-area photos for marketing, and retail businesses use them in brochures, leaflets and newsletters.
Can drone footage be part of a full video?
Yes. We are a turnkey video firm. We can write, plan, shoot on the ground, edit and add motion graphics, with the aerials built in.
