  • We at Beverly Hills Aerials are always trying to
    push our gear to the limit in order to discover
    new ways of utilizing drones to create
    unprecedented shots for our clients. Innovation
    is our passion and the driving force behind our
    company. One of the ways weve been finding new
    inspiration is by flying cinema zoom lenses that
    seasoned Directors of Photography are familiar
    with from companies like Angenieux and Fujinon.
    These lenses are taking flight with full wireless
    Focus, Iris, and Zoom control paired with
    industry-standard cameras like the Alexa Mini and
    RED series on our heavy lifter drone the Freefly
    Alta 8 octocopter.

  • This has allowed us to add a whole new element to
    the way we approach aerial filmmaking by not only
    allowing us to reframe, but to actively zoom
    during the duration of the shot adding new
    dynamics and feeling to every shot. As
    filmmakers, cameras and the platform they find
    themselves on like a gimbal or Steadicam, are
    just tools to help tell a story and are used
    selectively to further the narrative of that
    story.
  • Having the ability to fly a cinema zoom lens like
    the new Angenieux EZ1 30-90mm T2 (pictured above)
    gives us that creative freedom to tell that
    story. Imagine the drama youd add to a shot by
    starting very tight in on your subject driving
    down the road at 90mm and zooming out to a very
    wide shot revealing

    out the video below to see the exact setup
    pictured above for an epic one-take shot for
    Travis Pastranas jump over the Caesars Palace
    fountains just last month.

  • Flying these lenses arent without their
    challenges which is why many aerial companies
    have stayed away from experimenting with them.
    Having that much weight in front of the camera
    makes it very difficult to properly balance your
    camera package on the gimbal which provides a
    stable shot.
  • In order to balance these lenses, weve
    customized our gimbal of choice, the Freefly
    Systems Movi Pro, with aftermarket and custom
    pieces to achieve optimal performance in all
    conditions.
