AERIAL FILMMAKING Behind the scenes with Juan Mayer

Filmmaking
Written By Juan Mayer

We are showing some of Juan Mayer works jumping out of plane with his video and photo cameras mounted on his special handmade helmet.

This production was made during one of our trips to Norway this last June 2022.

We made this production for people who are non skydivers understand a little bit more of how we do our work filming in the sky.

I hope you enjoy it and please leave your comment or questions bellow. Our team will be more than happy to answer those.

You can also contact our team at any time to info@juanmayer.com for any collaboration or assistance with your aerial productions.

Thanks,

Juan Mayer Team

P.S. Special thanks to @Andreas Roksvaag and @Alex Baker for this video production.
