Copyright and Usage

Unless a buyout of footage is specifically agreed and contracted, Airborne visual solutions ltd retains the copyright of all filming content. The client purchasing the service of Airborne visual solutions ltd will get full use of the material, however will not be able to sell the footage or allow 3rd party companies to use it without the agreement of Airborne visual solutions ltd.

Naturally we are proud of our work and Airborne visual solutions ltd actively promotes its and we do reserve the right to use ANY of our footage for internal promotion, whether this be inclusion on our showreel for PR purposes to promote Airborne visual solutions ltd. Also we reserve the right to supply the footage to stock libraries at a later date.

If you have any questions or issues with the above, we would ask you to kindly speak to us in advance of commencement of filming. Thank you.

Each job is unique with many variable factors. Therefore, Airborne visual solutions ltd prefers to quote on an individual project basis, after having discussed or been fully briefed on the proposed project.

There are a number of variables which may affect the quotation including the time of year, location of shoot (as we often get called to work oversees), potential weather and other external shooting conditions, associated risk of taking the job on, requirements for additional CAA approvals.

Payment Terms

7 Days (unless by prior agreement / discussion)

We will be happy to discuss any of the above with you in greater detail and think you will find us fair reasonable and transparent.
We are happy to provide ANY quotes in writing once we have received a full brief from the Client and been able to discuss the requirements and expectations of the shoot.

Due to the nature of the weather in the UK and nature of filming shoots we are very flexible when working with clients. Many of our jobs are booked very last minute. However, we must have enough time to do pre-flight checks and ensure that the job can be undertaken safely, adhering to the rules & regulations of aerial filming and our operating licence.

We are happy to pencil in potential jobs and dates for Clients. However, actual bookings will always take priority. Naturally, if someone has a date pencilled in we will go back to them with first refusal on their proposed date.

Due to the nature of the filming industry and working with a number of staff and freelancers, we do require our clients to commit when booking our services and time. Unless by special circumstances or if time doesn’t permit, we require 25% of the booking to be PAID IN ADVANCE.

Postponents, Cancellations and Weather

Remote controlled aerial filming is naturally affected by the flying conditions. If due to weather (i.e. rain, strong winds etc.) and we are not able to shoot we shall not charge the client if we can make alternative arrangements for the shoot to happen at another time. The 25% booking fee is simply transferred to another day when we can shoot.

If the shoot cannot be re-scheduled (which we usually know in advance of the carrying out the job) anyway, we will discuss cancellation policy and potential fees with the Client and come to a fair and reasonable compromise.

If a job is cancelled due to other issues and simply not re-scheduled due to the client no longer requiring our services, the 25 % deposit will not be refunded unless by a pre-agreement and if additional costs have been incurred will also have to be met by the client.

Travel & expenses

Any mileage over 20 miles from the office of Airborne visual solutions ltd will be charged at 40 pence per mile.

Accommodation will be charged if there is a need for an overnight stay in order to achieve the project and will be discussed and agreed prior to filming.
