Full-Service Aerial Production
Most drone operators hand over footage and walk away. Editing, color grading, music, graphics, and a finished deliverable are someone else's problem. For small and medium businesses, lean marketing teams, and agencies that need a reliable subcontractor, that's not a solution — it's just the beginning of another project.
NE Ohio Drone is different. Ed Rich shoots the footage, edits it, grades the color, adds graphics and music if needed, and delivers a finished product that's ready to post, present, or publish. One phone call. One vendor. One invoice.
From pre-flight planning through final delivery, every step of the production process is handled by Ed Rich personally. No handoffs to a separate editor. No waiting on a third party to finish what the drone started. No explaining your brand and vision to someone who wasn't on the shoot. The person who captured the footage is the person who finishes it — and that makes a difference in the final product.
How It Works
Post-Production Services
Raw aerial footage edited into a polished, sequenced final cut — trimmed to the right length for your platform and purpose. Whether it's a 60-second social media clip, a 3-minute property tour, or a longer documentary-style piece, the edit is built around what you need the video to do, not just what looked good in the air.
RAW footage contains far more visual information than the eye sees on an unprocessed file. Color grading brings out the richness, contrast, and natural beauty of aerial imagery — correcting for changing light conditions across a shoot and ensuring a consistent, cinematic look from the first frame to the last.
Professional editing of aerial stills — exposure correction, color grading, horizon leveling, and retouching — delivered in web-ready and print-ready formats. Every still is a finished image, not a raw file that requires additional work before it can be used.
On-screen text, title cards, lower thirds, and branded graphic elements added to video deliverables. Useful for property marketing videos, corporate presentations, progress documentation reports, and any project where the footage needs to communicate specific information beyond the visuals alone.
Royalty-free music selected and mixed to match the tone and pacing of the finished edit. The right music makes aerial footage land emotionally — the wrong music undermines everything the visuals accomplish. Ed Rich's marketing background means music selection is made with the audience and purpose in mind, not just what sounds impressive.
On-camera narration, commercial voice-over, and documentary-style script delivery available for projects that need a human voice to tell the story. Ed Rich has a professional voice-over background — if your project calls for narration, it can be handled in-house without adding another vendor to the project.
Who This Is For
- Small and medium businesses without an in-house marketing team You need professional aerial content for your website, social media, or sales presentations — but you don't have a video editor on staff and don't want to manage multiple vendors. Ed Rich handles the entire production from first flight to finished file.
- Marketing directors at mid-size companies You have a marketing strategy but limited production resources. NE Ohio Drone functions as an on-call aerial production resource — shoot, edit, and deliver on your timeline without adding headcount or managing a production house.
- Advertising and marketing agencies You need a reliable aerial subcontractor who understands agency workflows, meets deadlines, and delivers broadcast-quality finished content — not raw footage that your team has to finish. Ed Rich's 45 years of advertising and marketing experience means he speaks your language and understands what the end client actually needs.
- Real estate brokerages and developers Property marketing video and photography that goes from shoot to MLS-ready, website-ready, and social-ready in 24 hours — without a separate post-production step on your end.
