Yes. We specialize in designing animations specifically for drone shows — not just 3D graphics. We understand constraints like drone count and show safety. All files are ready-to-fly and tailored to real-world conditions. We combine the artistry of a symphony of lights with the technical basics of drone swarms — and can even sync your drone display with traditional fireworks for maximum visual impact.

Even if you’re new to the drone show business, you can test us with no risk — payment only after you approve the concept with a designer.

Yes. We adapt our animations to your workflow — no matter which drone show software you use. Our focus is on fluid drone movements that work smoothly across platforms.

Initial concept — in 3–5 days. Then it depends on the complexity and feedback. Whether you’re building abstract formations or storytelling displays, a project takes 1–2 weeks from brief to production-ready files.

Yes. We scale designs to match your fleet — from 50 to 5000 drones. We calculate the cost per drone and optimize drone movements accordingly, ensuring visual clarity and safety regardless of scale.

Yes. We factor in local altitude limits, spacing, safety buffers. Our work aligns with drone industry standards, advanced drone tech and flight rules. If you share your launch coordinates, we’ll adapt the show accordingly.

Payment happens upfront, but your money is held in escrow. You see and approve the concept before animation begins. If you’re not happy with the direction — we revise it. The designer only gets paid after the final files are delivered.

It depends on show length and amount of the drones We provide a clear quote after receiving your brief. We only earn our platform commission after you pay the designer. The commission is paid by the designer, not by you.

Absolutely. Many teams treat us as their creative partner. You give us the theme (brand, event, story), and we propose several animation ideas with visuals.

Simple and clear:
1. You fill out a short brief
2. We pick a right person and send ideas and a visual concept
3. You give feedback
4. You receive production-ready files

It starts with you sharing your vision and requirements with the designer. When you request a custom show, you’ll typically fill out a brief or have a consultation to discuss the event theme, key messages or stories you want to tell, any specific imagery (logos, symbols, text) you want in the sky, the number of drones available, and logistical details like the location or venue size. If you have a soundtrack in mind or other show elements (like “we want the drones to appear at the climax of our event”), you’d share that too. Using this information, the designer will propose a creative concept – often in the form of a storyboard or written outline of the show’s flow. Once you approve the concept, they proceed to animation and choreography development, showing you previews (rendered videos or simulations) of the drone formations in sequence. You’ll be able to give feedback at multiple stages – for example, approving the rough storyboard, then the detailed 3D animation – to ensure it’s aligning with your vision​. After a few iterations, the final design is locked in, and the designer will output the flight path files and lighting cues in the format needed for your drones, ready for you to upload to your fleet and perform. Throughout this process, expect ongoing communication and collaboration – it’s a creative partnership to bring your show to life.

With a Custom Drone Show Design, you receive everything necessary to execute the show and more. Key deliverables include:

- Flight plan files for the drones – these are the coordinates and timing data that you’ll load into your drone swarm control software to run the show. They will be provided in the correct file format for your system (for example, .sky or .mission files, etc., depending on your software)​.

- Show Visualization – usually a video render or simulation of the drone show. This lets you see the show on a screen exactly as it’s meant to appear in the sky (3D animatic). It’s useful for final approvals and for your own rehearsals or marketing. Some designers provide an augmented reality visualization (drones composited over your venue) or a standard overhead simulation.

- Storyboards or design sketches – especially if the show has complex scenes, you might get the initial storyboard images or concept art that were created, for your reference or to use in promotion.

- Safety documentation – many full-show packages come with a report or notes on safety checks (e.g., minimum separation distances, battery consumption estimates, etc.) to help you during the flight authorization and setup. Designers ensure all trajectories were double-checked in simulation for safety​, and they pass that info to you.

- Music or sync info – if the show was choreographed to music, the designer will indicate the timing (e.g., a time-coded script or an audio file with markers) so you can play the right track in sync.

- Instructions for setup – any special notes on how to deploy the drones (formation on ground, take-off order) if relevant to the design.

In summary, you get a turnkey package: the creative visuals plus the technical files. After that, it’s on you to test it with your drones and then launch the show!

Yes – revisions are a normal part of the custom design process. Drone show designers want to ensure you are happy with the final product, so they typically include a certain number of revision rounds in the project scope. For instance, after seeing the first animated preview, you might want a logo to appear larger, or the timing of a sequence to be slower to match your music – you can communicate these and the designer will adjust. Minor tweaks like color changes, speed adjustments, or repositioning a formation are usually handled in these revision rounds. If you have a major change (like adding a new scene or completely changing the concept), that might incur extra cost or time, but the designer will discuss options with you. The goal is to incorporate your feedback at each stage so the final show meets your vision. Once the design is delivered and approved, if you later need changes (say the venue changed and you need to resize the show), many designers are open to helping – possibly as an additional service or update. Our platform encourages clear communication of feedback to get the design just right.

In principle, a custom drone show design can scale to any number of drones – from 50 to 5,000 or more​. The real limit is what you, the provider, have available in your fleet and what your control software/hardware can handle. Designers will ask how many drones you plan to use. They will then tailor the formations to that count. If you have a smaller number of drones, the designer might focus on clever choreography to maximize visual impact with fewer points of light. If you have a very large number, they can create massive, detailed images or split the drones into multiple sub-formations for complex effects. The design files can handle large drone counts because they’re generated by algorithms and software that manage hundreds or thousands of points. It’s worth noting that extremely large shows (thousands of drones) might require more coordination and top-notch hardware, but if you’re equipped for it, the designers can match that scale – one of our partners even delivered a design for 5,000 drones in one show​.

So, as long as your drone swarm system supports it, our designers can create a show for it. Always communicate the drone count and model up front, so the design is optimized for that number.

Generally, yes. If you commission a custom drone show design, you will receive the files to run that show and you can typically run it as many times as you want with your drones (for example, you might debut it at one event and then perform it again at another venue later). Many drone show providers invest in a custom show and then reuse it or adapt it for different clients or occasions – this is part of the value of owning a custom piece of content. That said, there are a few considerations: If the show contains brand-specific content (like a client’s logo or name), you might need to remove or change those elements before using it for a different client. Designers can often help update a portion of the show for a new use case. Also, be mindful of any contract terms – in most cases, once you’ve purchased the design, it’s yours to use, but some high-end designers might license a show for a single event or ask for royalties if it’s performed multiple times. On our marketplace, ownership details would be agreed upon in the service terms. Technically, though, there’s nothing stopping you from re-flying the same choreography again and again. Some providers even build up a library of several custom shows that they can offer to multiple end-clients (with slight rebranding tweaks as needed). It’s a great way to maximize ROI on a custom design. If reuse is your plan, you can mention it to the designer so they create something versatile and not too tailored to one specific event.
