Midnight Session with Moncler & Hypebeast

For this extraordinary project we flew in icy cold and extreme wind conditions at an altitude of about 2700 meters above sea level with our Heavylifter light drone and turned night into day. For the snowboard pro Shaun White, the freestyle ski legend Perrine Laffont and freeride pro Richard Permin we lit up the slope to produce spectacular film & photo shots.

The challenge this time was clearly the harsh weather conditions in which drones are not really operated. We had to deal with super-cooled batteries, frozen remote controls, snow and strong gusts. Thanks to a very good organization, detailed planning and a well-rehearsed team, we were able to defy the challenges and light up spectacular sceneries.
