The Contend team was on hand to provide a demo of Contend Aerial and discuss how aerial is changing the game in production by offering a completely new perspective in video for brands and Hollywood.
"Contend brings together licensed pilots, post-production and distribution in a new way, allowing us to capture unparalleled imagery that only an aerial platform can provide," Steven Amato, CEO and founder, Contend. "Our Contend Aerial offering continues our promise to innovate and disrupt the traditional entertainment, advertising and media industries with the most unique and provocative storytelling methods available."
Contend Aerial offers FAA-certified and award-winning licensed pilots, journalists and producers to create one-of-a-kind, on location productions.
