3 Part Video Series for OshKosh
We combined impressive 8k aerial footage with passionate crew interviews to share the GameBird's story.
From script to screen, we worked with Game Composites over the course of 3 weeks to crystalize their ideas, capture the mind blowing capabilities of these machines in flight, and even peak behind the curtain to see every detail of how these airplanes are made.
Utilizing the GSS, we followed Phillipp Steinbach and Christian Bolton through the air as they performed a series of acrobatic skills that would leave mere mortals grasping for an airsick bag. To date, this is one of the coolest experiences we’ve ever had as filmmakers. An absolute bucket list item for a pair of fairly newbie women to get to experience!

⸺ Behind the Scenes
Giving a look at the entire start to finish process made our audience at OshKosh (and online) feel invested in the product, and added that extra something special you don't normally get to see!
⸺ Details
We focused on *all* the details - from speed and handling, to the stitches on the seatbelt. A product like this deserves to have its craftsmanship celebrated.
⸺ Creating a Narrative
We rounded out our video series by creating a feeling, taking the viewer on a delicate dance through the sky.
⸺ High Production
Working with a company of this calibre, and with products of this nature, required pulling out all the stops, including the use of a GSS gimbal attached to a helicopter. It's certainly not something we use all of the time, but for a project with such high production value it makes all the difference!
