Cinematic Drone & FPV Aerial Storytelling

Melissa Vandervort — Owner & Lead Pilot

FPV Cinematography · Aerial Direction · Chicago

MOOV Media is an aerial cinematography studio specializing in dynamic, high-quality drone and FPV footage for filmmakers, production companies, creative agencies, brands, and real estate professionals. Every flight is planned as a shot, not a sweep.

Owner Melissa Vandervort builds each sequence around composition, flight movement, and precision — pairing high-altitude perspective with immersive FPV proximity so a space, a building, or a story reads exactly the way it should on screen.

Flight Log

What Directors, Brokers, and Brands Say

The FPV one-take through our venue did more for bookings than a full photo campaign. Flawless flight lines.

Daniela Ruiz

Brand Manager, Hospitality Group

Melissa reads a building like a director. Every pass was framed, not just flown — we used nearly all of it.

Owen Marsh

Film Director

Our listing sold in eleven days. The aerial package gave buyers the whole property in one look.

Priya Nadkarni

Real Estate Broker

Ultra-smooth 4K, delivered ahead of schedule, and cut-ready. MOOV is on our production shortlist now.

Grant Whitaker

Executive Producer

The interior FPV sweep felt like a Steadicam that could fly. Clients ask us who shot it every time.
