Asking For Use Of A Drone

We emailed Joseph Gray about the use of his drone for our short film. His drone would allow us to film a variety of extra shots, including many establishing shots to help set the scene for the audience and show the time of day. We would also be able to film some crane shots and high angled shots from various positions. One shot we will film is from outside the upstairs bedroom window. The drone would be hovering outside the window, filming inside to crate a sense of spying and thus voyeurism. The drone is very stable, and when it moves the camera gyro self-stabilises so the quality of the shot is never effected. 


I kept the email very formal and polite, trying to show that we are serious and professional when it comes to our work. If he didn't take us seriously, he may not have trusted us with the use of his drone and not allowed us to use it.


Joseph replied allowing us to use his drone. He explained to us how it worked so we could film to a good, high quality standard. He gave us his address so we could collect it, and his mobile number incase we had an queries about it on the day and needed help. Joseph was very helpful about with all the organisation, and was very kind to allow us to use it for our production.
