If your show is union, your aerial unit has to be too. That is not a preference, it is a condition of hiring.
Vegas draws union features, series and specials alongside a large non-union commercial and event market, so productions here regularly need both. We crew Local 600 for the shows that require it and non-union where the budget and the agreement allow, without you having to source two separate vendors.
CineDrones supplies Local 600 crews for union productions and non-union crews where the show allows it. We know how the aerial unit fits into the camera department on a union call sheet, how the day is accounted for, and what production accounting needs from us. It is the least glamorous part of the job and the part that most often decides whether a vendor gets hired twice.
Vegas crews up fast for events and thins out between them, so the honest answer on availability depends entirely on what is in town that week. We staff around the event calendar rather than pretending it does not exist.
Vegas runs on residencies, fights, conventions and stadium events, which means the calendar and the airspace move together. Allegiant Stadium draws a temporary flight restriction on game days. Sphere changed what producers expect an establishing shot to look like. The work here rewards a unit that reads the event calendar as carefully as the call sheet.
We shoot the Strip, Fremont Street, Sphere, Allegiant Stadium, and the desert an hour in any direction — and we travel. CineDrones works nationwide, so if your production is basing in Las Vegas and shooting somewhere else entirely, that is a normal week for us.
