Filming from a balloon | Video & TV Production

We were commissioned to fly and film a very exciting Special Shape in a private location, which allowed us to free-fly and still keep the balloon details secret! We teamed up with Flying Pictures to use a GB Helicopters Squirrel Helicopter, with Pilot Will, DJI Inspire 2 drone and a couple of FPV drones. We managed to get all of the filming done with a couple of tethers and 3 free-flights, with perfect weather. All of the filming was in 4K and this was edited, prior to the on-line launch of the balloon in early May.

These pictures show ABC flying a Finnish film crew, who were making a documentary with a profoundly deaf presenter, who was visiting Bristol Fiesta and wanted to experience flight in a completely new way. We had a great flight and landed with 50 other balloons at the North Somerset Showground.

Tethered for filming.

ABC worked with Michael Flately when we used this balloon, tethered above a Chateau, to create a promotional video for the Feet of Flame World Tour.
The balloon was produced in Bristol by Cameron Balloons and the artwork was fully photo-realistically printed.
