Anna Paquin

This project captures cinematic, story-driven visuals for Ottawa actress and voice artist Anna Paquin, blending premium drone videography with ground-level filmmaking. Using a full suite of DJI equipment — DJI Mavic 4, DJI Avata 2 (FPV), DJI Mini 4, OSMO 360, and the DJI Mic system — we created a multi-perspective, immersive narrative designed for high-quality online performance. The result is a polished, cinematic production optimized for local search visibility across Ottawa drone videos, aerial cinematography, and professional drone production in Eastern Ontario.

Stan Kozniewski is a Polish-Canadian drone pilot and creative director offering professional drone videos and aerial cinematography in Ottawa, Gatineau, and the surrounding region. With more than 30 years of experience in the construction industry, Stan brings technical expertise that few drone operators possess — allowing him to capture structural detail, progress, and landscapes with precision.

Today, he uses advanced drone technology to tell powerful visual stories from the sky. His signature style blends cinematic drone shots, smooth movement, and true-to-life colour to create compelling visuals for builders, real-estate professionals, events, and brand campaigns across Eastern Ontario. Stan’s Ottawa-based drone work is trusted for its clarity, creativity, and unmatched ability to showcase projects from a new perspective.

This production blends Anna’s expressive performance with advanced drone technology to create a visual experience that connects character, environment, and perspective — the perfect fusion of artistry and aerial filmmaking.

The focus of this project was to create a cinematic, multi-layered visual narrative using a combination of aerial and ground shots recorded across Ottawa and surrounding areas. Our toolkit included the DJI Mavic 4 for crisp cinematic aerials, the DJI Avata 2 for dynamic FPV sequences, the DJI Mini 4 for tight urban shots, and the OSMO 360 to capture immersive environmental storytelling.

On the ground, DSLR work and full post-production editing were completed by our colleagues at Hayle Team, ensuring smooth colour grading, dynamic pacing, and premium finishing.

Behind the scenes, our workflow combined advanced drone flight planning with on-site coordination around Anna’s performance cues. We used the DJI Mic system to capture clean, broadcast-quality audio for her narrative delivery, while our drones executed synchronized passes, orbits, and tracking sequences.

The FPV drone (DJI Avata 2) handled fast-paced weaving shots, the DJI Mavic 4 captured high-resolution cinematic sweeps, and the DJI Mini 4 was deployed for smaller, tighter locations where agility and discretion were required. Additional OSMO 360 footage gave us full environmental context for transitions.

With DSLR support and editing from the Hayle Team, the final product blends drone cinematography, FPV motion, immersive 360 elements, and grounded storytelling into one cohesive visual experience optimized for ranking across Ottawa videography, aerial filmmaking, and creative drone production.
