Drone aerial video in Vitry-sur-Seine

Drone aerial video gives your films a cinematic dimension: smooth tracking shots over a site, vertical reveal moves, orbits around a building, dynamic chase shots. Our aircraft shoot in 4K or even 5.1K in 10-bit (D-Log), with precisely controlled moves thanks to three-axis stabilisation and programmed flight modes. The footage cuts seamlessly into corporate, advertising or documentary productions.

A typical assignment includes scouting, a flight plan written around your storyboard, half a day or a full day of filming, then colour grading and delivery of the rushes or a broadcast-ready short edit. We regularly work alongside ground film crews and provide the insurance certificates and permits that productions require.

Common use cases

The local context in Vitry-sur-Seine

Vitry-sur-Seine combines the Paris conurbation's low-altitude no-fly zone — prefecture authorisation every time — with proximity to the Paris-Orly CTR, whose approaches pass west of the commune: flight ceilings are particularly low. The industrial Seine banks (EDF plant, Vitry port) add further sensitive facilities.

Val-de-Marne's most populous city is undergoing deep change: the arrival of Grand Paris Express Line 15, the Seine Gare Vitry development zone and the conversion of industrial brownfields into mixed districts — all construction worth tracking from above. France's largest concentration of street art (monumental murals) and the MAC VAL museum also provide original image subjects.

Applicable regulations

Aerial filming follows the same rules as photography: open category A1/A2/A3 for most flights in clear areas, height capped at 120 m, operator registered on AlphaTango and systematic checking of the Géoportail drone map. In built-up areas or near uninvolved people, shoots move to the specific category (European standard scenario STS-01, the French national scenarios S-1/S-3 having ended on 31 December 2025) with prior declaration to the préfecture for flights over populated areas. Productions also require dedicated aerial liability insurance and, for certain listed sites or military zones, specific agreements. Flying over gatherings of people remains prohibited without exceptional authorisation.

Frequently asked questions

Do you deliver raw rushes or an edited film?

Both options are available: delivery of gradable 4K Log rushes for your editor, or a turnkey 60–90 second edit with royalty-free music. The quote specifies the chosen option.

Can you film indoors (factory, warehouse, venue)?

Yes: indoor flights are outside the scope of aviation regulations. We use light, protected drones (cages or ducted propellers) to fly safely inside buildings.

How long does it take to obtain filming permits?

In open areas, no lead time: the flight can happen within days. In built-up areas, allow at least 10 working days for the prefectural declaration, and up to 4 weeks for sensitive sites.

Can this service be flown anywhere in Vitry-sur-Seine?

Almost: Zone interdite basse altitude de l'agglomération parisienne; Approches de Paris-Orly (plafonds réduits); Emprises industrielles des bords de Seine. Depending on the exact location, the pilot picks the right framework (open or specific category) and files the required declarations — included in the quote.
