ABOUT ME
EXPERIENCED
Having worked for most major UK TV broadcasters, a heap of TVCs and a handful of shorts and features, I have the skills and experience to work seamlessly with your crew to get the shots you need.
QUALITY
Using the latest in stabilised aerial camera technology I have the kit to shoot up to 6K RAW, using a variety of lenses to meet and exceed client expectations.
Based in the Peak District, I offer a professional drone filming service for TV and Film production companies and also act as a trusted pilot for hire for various other drone companies in the UK.
HOW I WORK
Typically I organise a camera operator to work alongside me and between us, we work with your director and DP. From planning the shots to reviewing the footage immediately on set, we can achieve exactly what you’re striving for.

Phils listening skills are right up there with his aircraft knowledge, control and sense of creativity, so whether he's answering to a director/camera operator or working alone, he really has an understanding of the shot that's required. This is a surprisingly rare quality in a drone pilot!
