Pre-production
It's good idea to include your sports expert in your production
meetings whenever possible. This gives the director, your department
heads, and production an opportunity to clearly understand just
how the sports action is to be accomplished, the limitations
that need to be worked around, common problems to be avoided,
and available options.
Bidding
Gathering the right information to produce an accurate bid or
budget requires a thorough understanding of all that's needed
on the shoot. That can be difficult when you're trying to understand
a storyboard involving extreme sports and stunts. To ask the
right questions, you need to know which questions to ask; and
that's when it helps to be talking to experts.
Stunt Wings Adventure Sports coordinators
are the most experienced sports and production experts available.
Chances are we've already done what you need many times before.
We can help you decide what you need, and when you need it. With
our experience, equipment, and techniques, we can show you the
different ways to get the shots you need, and clearly define
the costs. We can often show you how to reduce one or more days
from your shooting schedule. Whether the action is live, on location,
stage, miniatures, or computer graphics imaging, Stunt Wings
will help you accurately bid your job, and save you time and
money in the process.
Locations
Some extreme sports can be filmed anywhere, others
have specific location requirements. With sports such as hot
air ballooning, ultralighting, hang gliding, and land sailing,
the wind and terrain can play an important role in the quality
of the shot. With the development of our specialized equipment
unique to the film industry, Stunt Wings is able to greatly expand
your choices of locations where these sports can be filmed. For
example, our unique portable launching systems enable us to fly
hang gliders, paragliders and parachutes in areas where there
are no hills, mountains, or where airplanes and helicopters are
not in the budget. Check out our QTVR
location
services.
Often the key challenge for Stunt Wings
is to bring our sports to the location most convenient to the
production (for example, to hang glide in a city park, beach,
movie ranch, or sound stage, where other action is being filmed).
For this we are well known! This added flexibility allows you
to concentrate on your production needs while we provide the
talent and specialized equipment to quickly get the job done.
Permits and Insurance
Stunt Wings has provided talent and equipment for hundreds of
film, commercial, and still production companies all over the
world. Expert talent and equipment, along with more than 20 years
of accident-free filming are the best insurance for avoiding
accidents. Upon request, Stunt Wings will help you provide the
necessary information to make the permit and insurance process
fly smoothly.
