Multi-Format Production

Stills, film, drone, FPV and immersive capture for projects that need more than one format

For complex shoots, Whyldthings delivers flexible multi-format production across photography, ground-based filming, cinematic drone, FPV and immersive capture.

Whether the brief calls for stills and video, drone and 360 photography, or a complete combination of formats, Lewis Whyld builds the right setup for the project — with a consistent visual language, a streamlined workflow and production-ready delivery.

Emmy-winning visual storytelling, broadcast-grade experience and calm, safety-conscious production across demanding locations, live environments and fast-moving briefs.

What Multi-Format means:

Some projects need more than one specialist.

A campaign may need stills, ground filming and drone.
A hospitality shoot may need interiors, FPV fly-throughs and 360 capture.
An industrial brief may need photography, interviews, aerials and edited delivery.
A documentary project may need stills, motion and immersive content captured in one coherent workflow.

Whyldthings offers a flexible production model for exactly those kinds of briefs — combining multiple formats under one visual approach, with the option to scale the package around what the project actually needs.

What clients get

One visual partner

A single creative lead across stills, motion, drone, FPV and immersive capture.

One visual language

A more consistent final result across all deliverables, from hero imagery to supporting video and aerials.

Fewer handoffs

Less friction between separate photographers, filmmakers, drone operators and post teams.

A lighter production footprint

Ideal for projects that need multiple outputs without the complexity of building a larger crew around separate specialists.

Flexible delivery

Raw capture, selects, edited outputs or a broader delivery package depending on the brief.

What can be included:

Photography

Award-winning editorial, commercial and documentary stills for campaigns, branded content, industry, architecture, hospitality, locations and live environments.

Editing and Delivery

Built around the brief

This is not a fixed bundle.

It is a flexible production offer built around what the project actually needs.

That might mean:

  • stills + ground filming

  • stills + drone

  • drone + FPV + edited promo

  • photography + video + drone + FPV

  • 360 photography + aerials

  • full multi-format coverage across stills, motion, aerial and immersive capture

The goal is simple: build the right combination for the brief, without unnecessary complexity.

Why clients hire Whyldthings for this kind of work

Because not many operators can genuinely deliver across stills, filmmaking, cinematic drone, FPV and immersive capture at a high level.

Lewis Whyld combines an award-winning photography background with broadcast filmmaking, aerial cinematography, FPV flying and immersive-media experience developed across major international stories, complex environments and premium productions.

That means clients get more than a list of services. They get a production partner who understands story, access, pace, logistics and how to create a coherent body of work across different formats.
