At Airmage Media Productions, we’re here to make your life easier, your vision clearer, and your content better than you imagined. Below are answers to our most common questions — with a few extra insights to help you feel completely confident when working with us!
📅 What’s your turnaround time?
We’re fast — and flexible!
For urgent projects, we proudly offer next-day photo delivery (within 24–48 hours) and video delivery within 72 hours if needed. For standard projects, photo turnaround time is typically 1–3 weeks, while video production ranges from 2–4 weeks depending on complexity. Need it faster? Just ask — we’ll tailor our delivery to your timeline.
✈️ Are your drone pilots certified?
Absolutely — and we go way beyond just checking a box.
Our drone pilots are FAA Part 107 licensed, with over 1,000+ drone flight hours under our belts. We’ve safely flown for clients around the world, from Toyota in Iceland to Waldorf Astoria in Panama, and serve as the primary drone pilots for NC State University. We take drone safety and skill seriously — because your project deserves the best.
🛫 Do you follow drone laws and airspace rules?
Yes — to the letter.
We perform detailed pre-flight planning for every drone shoot. We always adhere to FAA Part 107 regulations, including the 400 ft altitude limit, and we never fly over stadiums, prisons, or restricted zones without proper authorization. We thoroughly check airspace for restrictions, obtain any necessary waivers, and communicate everything clearly to you. Whether we’re flying in a city, national park, or a remote destination abroad, we follow local and international drone laws to ensure everything is safe, legal, and hassle-free.
🛡️ Are you insured?
Yes! Your peace of mind is our priority.
We carry up to $5 million in liability insurance, automatically included in all our drone and aerial productions. This protects you, your property, your event attendees, and our crew. We’re happy to provide documentation upon request.
🖥️ Who handles the editing and post-production?
We do — all of it!
We’re a full-service team that handles your project from start to finish, including:
Storyboarding & concept planning
Filming & photography
Post-production editing
Color correction & color grading
Sound design, SFX, VFX
Final delivery — in formats tailored to your needs
Everything stays in-house to ensure consistent quality and a personalized experience. We work closely with you throughout the process to nail your vision.
🎯 What if I’m not happy with the final product?
We’re not happy unless you are.
While we don’t offer a money-back guarantee, we do offer a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. If you’re not satisfied with the result, we will reshoot, re-edit, or revise until you’re thrilled with the final deliverables. We take pride in going above and beyond until it’s exactly right.
💼 What kinds of projects do you cover?

🚗 Do you charge for travel?
We try to keep it simple and transparent.
We include a 20-mile round trip of travel at no additional cost, based on the IRS mileage rate (covering fuel, wear and tear, and insurance). For distances beyond that, we charge a per-mile rate. For out-of-state or international shoots, we’ll discuss and agree on any travel/lodging costs up front — no surprises.
We’re based in North Carolina and the Bay Area, California, but also regularly serve Virginia, Washington, New Jersey, New York, Florida, and beyond! Have an event in another state or country? We’re just a quick flight away from bringing your vision to life.

You’ll get exactly what you need — and more.

☎️ Can I get a quote before committing?
Of course!
