Aerial pilot directory Air-Vid is announcing the milestone of their 500th drone pilot to join its community, now encompassing UAV pilots from over 44 countries. <\/p>\n
Air-Vid is a web-based community of remote aerial pilots, built with both pilots and anyone looking to hire an aerial photographer in mind. UAV pilots can upload their contact information, location, photos and demo reels, while anyone who needs aerial video, stills or surveys can easily search the directory to connect with a pilot whose UAV flying capabilities meet their needs. The site benefits both parties, helping pilots and customers to connect their businesses. <\/p>\n
Its an easy process to find a videographer, said Air-Vid Chief Marketing Officer George Gooderham. Its like a matchmaker service. <\/p>\n
No transactions are done on the site; pilots manage the transactions with their customers after getting connected through Air-Vid. <\/p>\n
Pilots in the Air-Vid community range from hobbyists to professionals who have worked on Hollywood films among them are Drone Dudes, whose clients include Nike and GoPro. Customers can search pilots based on the skill level theyre looking for, whether theyre looking for someone to fly over an event, rescue mission, news story or even a wedding. Air-Vid is a one stop shop to find and compare companies from all over the world, said Eric Maloney, Head of Production at Drone Dudes. It will allow clients to quickly decipher who the real talented high-end guys are and who is just getting started. <\/p>\n
Air-Vid pilots are capable of doing flights including: search and rescue, cinematography, mapping, roof inspections 3D Imaging and asset management. <\/p>\n
The site, unlike any other drone community in existence, was founded by Patrick Egan, George Gooderham and David French, all self-described serial entrepreneurs wearing 400 hats. <\/p>\n
Gooderham, an accomplished aerial photographer, had the idea to crowd-source a UAV pilot when his daughter went on a school trip to Italy. <\/p>\n
Wouldnt it be cool if I could watch their outdoor concert in Rome from my home in Toronto? he said. <\/p>\n
