Chad Warner Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I've got a potential project coming up in Alabama that may require some camera matching from helicopter footage. Does anyone know of a company in Atlanta or the Birmingham Alabama area that I can contact? Thanks, Chad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EddieLeon Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 Hi Chad, The guy I use puts his helicopter on a Semi and can film anywhere in North America. His camera system is excellent (HD, Gyro, etc.) and his camera man has a steady hand. His name is Paul Barth and you can find his contact info on his website. Good Luck. http://www.cameracopters.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad Warner Posted November 29, 2008 Author Share Posted November 29, 2008 We had used a guy out of North Carolina for a prior job (www.helivision.com) and he had all the same setups. It just seems that if you could find someone local, you wouldn't have to pay for all the driving time to the site. I'll give Paul a call regardless. Not coming up with much luck in Alabama. Thanks!

EddieLeon Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 Yep. It can be very expensive to have them drive to the location. But, maybe with the state of the economy you can negotiate a better rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad Warner Posted November 29, 2008 Author Share Posted November 29, 2008 That, and I'm hoping since gas is so much cheaper now than it was over the summer, it should cost less either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3sgteAw11 Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 I've been in the air with the cameracopter guys, I'd recommend them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad Warner Posted December 1, 2008 Author Share Posted December 1, 2008 Tyring to contact Camera Copters now, and of course the website isn't working! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad Warner Posted December 1, 2008 Author Share Posted December 1, 2008 Just got off the phone with him. Sounds like he knows what he's doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EddieLeon Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Yep the guy is a pro. One bit of advice, if you have any other projects in the area or know of anyone else that needs aerial video he can piggy-back the projects and get you a discount. Good luck!
