Cre8ive Media is a Berkshire‑based videography and drone operation team delivering high‑impact aerial footage across the South of England. Our pilots are CAA‑qualified and familiar with Oxford’s historic skyline, from the spires of the Radcliffe Camera to the tranquil curves of the River Cherwell, allowing us to capture the city’s character with precision and creativity.
We specialise in drone‑based aerial cinematography for a range of sectors:
Mini case study: A heritage charity commissioned us to document the changing landscapes of Oxfordshire’s countryside. Using the DJI Mavic 4 Pro we flew low over the University Parks at golden hour, delivering smooth 4K clips that highlighted the seasonal colour shift without disturbing wildlife.
Our fleet includes multiple Sony FX3 and FX30 cameras for ground‑to‑air transitions, complemented by a selection of DJI platforms:
Every flight begins with a detailed pre‑mission plan: site survey, weather analysis, airspace checks, and risk assessment. Pete, our A2CofC‑licensed drone operator, leads the flight operations, ensuring all maneuvers comply with CAA regulations and maintain a safe distance from people, structures, and wildlife.
Mini case study: For a promotional film of Blenheim Palace gardens, we coordinated with the estate’s staff to schedule flights during low‑visitor periods. Using the DJI Air 3s we captured sweeping orbits of the lake and terraces, delivering cinematic motion while keeping the drone below 40 ft to protect the historic landscape.
Post‑flight, footage is backed up immediately and colour‑graded in DaVinci Resolve, with optional raw processing in Capture One for stills extraction.
Local expertise: based in Berkshire, we regularly operate across Oxford, the Cotswolds, and the Thames Valley, understanding the nuances of each location’s lighting and regulations.
Professional credentials: Pete holds an A2CofC licence with over 15 years of combined videography and drone experience; Martin brings 25 years of professional photography and post‑production mastery; Holly manages editing and client relations with a keen eye for narrative flow.
Creative vision: we treat each aerial shot as a storytelling tool, combining motion, composition, and colour to produce footage that feels both cinematic and authentic to the place.
Reliable delivery: clear timelines, transparent communication, and a commitment to safety mean you receive the final edit on schedule, ready for broadcast, web, or display.
