About Drone

Assignment Desk provides FAA Part 107 certified Drone Operators who capture stunning aerial footage, establishing shots, and overhead perspectives for video productions of every scale. Our drone pilots carry comprehensive liability insurance, operate in full compliance with federal aviation regulations, and bring professional-grade aerial platforms capable of capturing 4K, 5.1K, and even 8K aerial video. Aerial drone footage adds cinematic production value that ground cameras simply cannot achieve — dramatic reveals, sweeping establishing shots, tracking shots, overhead angles, and large-scale event coverage. Our operators are experienced in both urban and rural environments, handle all FAA airspace authorizations, and coordinate with local authorities when required. Assignment Desk drone services are available in all 24 markets and can be booked as a standalone service or added to any crew package. Whether your production needs a simple aerial establishing shot or complex FPV drone sequences, our operators deliver professional results with full insurance and regulatory compliance.
