Process
How We Run It
Drone Tech Aerial operates as your aerial department. Before the shoot day, we handle FilmLA permitting internally. LAANC airspace authorization is pulled and confirmed. The COI goes directly to production and to the location manager. On shoot day, we arrive with a complete equipment manifest, pre-flighted rigs, and a safety meeting ready to deliver. Your UPM manages one department head. That is the whole relationship.
