Transforming Perspectives with Travel

We had the opportunity to travel to the great down under last December, we packed up the small but very capable  DJI Phantom for a long flight and before I knew it, we were driving on the wrong side of the road.

Our time was short but the locations were epic! We flew the beautiful emerald green waters of Byron Bay, Surfers' Paradise, Rainbow Bay and over the 330ft drop (!!) of Minion Falls. 

The majestic views of Cape Byron were nothing short of awe inspiring. 

I find Travel changes ones perspective on places, people, time and light. Aerial Cinematography does the same.

We Started in a Garage and Now We Are in a Van!

North Star Aerial has added a new piece of equipment to its production arsenal!  It's black, has 4 wheels and does not fly. The lower 48 is now our backyard. 

Introducing the NSA Van!

Stay tuned while we turn this empty shell into a full blown Aerial Production Van!

For extra added fun we are crowd sourcing amenities. From the practical to hair brained, suggest now or forever hold your peace. The BEST and WORST idea will be added to the van and the winners will receive  SWAG from NSA :)

The Fast Green Commute

Minneapolis actor and inventor Rich Kronfeld, has done it again. No longer will the morning commute be a slow or unsafe endeavor for bicycle commuters, a group that has grown exponentially in the last decade in the US. We had the chance to work with Rich last fall fly with his amazing hybrid vehicle, capturing footage of the Raht Racer in action for their promotional video, which now has over 7K shares on Mashable. 

This hybrid vehicle amplifies pedal power to enable cyclists to travel at the same speeds as cars, while still getting a workout. It is the first vehicle of its kind in the world. It has a roof to keep you dry in wet weather and a space to store your computer, lunch and everything you need for your day. The Raht Racer’s hybrid flywheel generator multiplies the pedal power of the driver. The Raht can reach top speeds of 70+ MPH. Find all of the details and link to dozens of articles and coverage on the vehicle on the Raht Race Kickstarter Page. 

We had a great time working with Rich and were glad to help promote his amazing Raht Mobile!
