Indoor Drone Tour
Flying indoors safely near workers and equipment
Filming an indoor drone tour at Wholesale Tire Company, Hamilton, Ohio required precise planning to capture operations while prioritizing safety in an active work environment. The primary focus was navigating close quarters without disrupting employees or workflow. In a facility full of shelves, inventory, and equipment, flying safely meant carefully controlling the drone's altitude and speed. Additionally, every maneuver was designed to respect safety protocols and ensure a seamless flow that didn't interfere with daily tasks or create any hazards.
Capturing high-quality footage indoors also posed technical challenges due to limited lighting and tight spaces. The drone's camera settings were carefully adjusted to maintain image clarity in varying light conditions. Each pass-through highlighted the essential areas of the operation, showcasing the processes and inventory layout that make Wholesale Tire's workflow efficient. The resulting video gives viewers a real sense of the company’s operations without any staged shots, making the experience authentic and true to life.
