Oxford, MS Drone Videographer and Operator
Air Views Media is a drone videography company serving Oxford, Lafayette County and North Mississippi for college game days, weddings, events, real estate and brand films. Our crew flew live drone feeds for TV and the video board for the Atlanta Braves at Truist Park. FAA Part 107 certified pilots, $10M liability standard (optional up to $25M).
Oxford
Ole Miss and Vaught-Hemingway Stadium
Vaught-Hemingway Stadium is on the FAA stadium list, so the 3 nautical mile flight restriction applies from an hour before to an hour after covered events. Ole Miss requires an approved UAS Request Form from University Police before any drone flight on university property. For games and campus events we film recaps, and for larger shows we send live drone feeds to the stream or screens; see live broadcast drones and concert and festival drones.
The Square, weddings and real estate
The Square, historic homes, wedding venues, Sardis Lake and new communities around Oxford suit aerials, filmed with the owner's approval. Mississippi reserves drone rules to the state, but cities can still set takeoff and landing rules for their own property, so we launch from private property with the owner's approval or get the city's permission. We keep neighbors and people on private property out of frame unless they agree to be filmed.
Mississippi law and parks
Mississippi law makes it a crime to use a drone to record critical infrastructure, such as refineries, power plants, water plants, ports and rail facilities, or a correctional facility without the owner's prior written consent, so we get that consent or keep those sites out of the shot. Mississippi state parks do not allow aircraft, including drones, on park land or water without written permission from the Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks, so we get it before any park shoot.
Airspace
University-Oxford Airport, about 2 miles northwest of town, has no control tower, but some addresses near it still need care. We check every Oxford location on the FAA sectional, B4UFLY and NOTAMs before quoting, and file LAANC or FAA authorization for any address that needs it.
