Inspired content.

4K Drone Filming
Big Yellow Feet now offer aerial filming and photography as a service, using a radio-controlled remote-piloted drone.
We currently use a DJI Phantom 3 Professional quadcopter for our drone filming. It is a versatile aircraft; small enough to be easily portable and advanced enough to produce very high quality video images using a Sony 4K camera. Another plus is that the aircraft weighs under 7kg, meaning that it is able to operate in certain UK airspace that larger drone systems cannot.
The camera also has a stills photography function, enabling us to capture information-rich RAW images. This function is useful for a number of applications; overlaying text and graphics for info screen, for instance.
Qualified Drone Operators
Our drone operators are all fully-trained and hold UAQs (Unmanned Aerial Qualifications). This is a requirement for any commercial operation offering drone filming, as it ensures that our operators are aware of the rules and regulations for planning aerial filming, follow a safe and precise set of procedures and are competent pilots. When working on aerial filming projects we use a crew of two as a minimum; one person is the Pilot in Command, and the second acts as Observer/Spotter to ensure that the operation goes smoothly.
As registered drone flyers, for drone filming activity we conform to to Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) regulations and guidelines and the practice is covered by our insurance.
If you are in need of professional, creative drone filming, please get in touch here.

Large Scale Video Projects – Big Productions
Production Professionals
Some productions are going to require extra members team members; makeup, costume and production designers, to name a few. When required we add to our in-house production team using freelance creatives. All of the freelance talent we use are dedicated, experienced professionals, with a long working relationship with us, so there are never any surprises.
There are a lot of misconceptions around what some of these disciplines actually do. Take makeup. Yes, they put makeup on people, boys as well as girls, but as well as making your featured person look good and stopping them from looking sweaty or shiny, they also offer a level of continuity across a production, making sure people look the same throughout an entire production day. They can also be a great tool for reassuring that CEO or important VIP; settling nerves and offering a level of reassurance that can be invaluable.
We understand what every production team member will bring to your film. We also understand the subtleties they will bring to the working relationship between cast and crew and this is often unique for any specific job.
Sourcing Locations
A great location can make a video. Video is a visual medium, and making sure your featured people are in a suitable location to match the video’s message is really important. Whether it’s a film studio or a specific type of actual location, from a coffee shop to a kitchen, we can find the perfect one.
Project Managing Big Productions
Project management is vital for producing larger scale, big productions. Whether it is in pre-production, ensuring everything is in place for the shoot, or that scripts have been approved by Clearcast (if required). The organisation on the ground is of course paramount, ensuring that the shoot days run like clockwork, making sure that your brief is fulfilled in post-production, or that the tone of the voiceover is exactly what you want. With Big Yellow Feet you can rest assured that our professional project management skill will ensure the delivery of a successful project, on time and on budget.
Action Stations!
If you are ready for that next step and are seriously considering that next level of production and creativity, or if you’re looking for help guiding your next production from its genesis through to final delivery, with just the right balance of organisational flair and ingenious creativity, drop us an email or give us a call.
