Custom Aerials vs Stock Footage

Stop using the same stock aerials as everyone else. Generate custom aerial views of your exact locations for authentic content that stands out.

Custom Aerials vs Stock Footage - AI aerial photography for Content Creation

The Challenge

Stock footage libraries have the same aerial clips everyone uses. Viewers recognize overused shots, and generic imagery undermines your brand's authenticity. Custom drone photography costs $500-1,000 per location.

The Solution

GenAerial generates custom aerial views of your specific locations—the actual places you're featuring, not generic stand-ins. Create unique imagery that matches your content exactly.

Why Professionals Choose GenAerial

Transform your content creation workflow with instant, professional aerial imagery

Match Your Exact Locations

Don't show generic aerials when you're featuring specific places. Generate views of your actual locations—the resort you're reviewing, the trail you hiked, the neighborhood you're showcasing.

Stand Out with Original Content

Audiences notice when creators use the same stock footage. Custom aerials signal quality and effort, differentiating your content from competitors using generic imagery.

Scale Your Production

Creating content about 50 locations? Generate aerial views for all of them in one session. No need to hire drone operators or source stock for each destination.

Professional Quality, Any Location

Get consistent, high-quality aerial imagery whether you're covering locations across town or across the globe. Same professional look for every piece of content.

How It Works

Three simple steps to professional aerial photography

1

Gather Your Location Coordinates

Compile GPS coordinates for the locations you're featuring. Use Google Maps, your travel photos' metadata, or simply drop a pin on your destinations.

2

Generate Custom Aerials

Create aerial views of each location from multiple angles. Match the lighting and mood to your content—golden hour, dramatic clouds, or bright daylight.

3

Integrate into Your Content

Use your custom aerials as establishing shots, transitions, or B-roll. Export unique imagery that complements rather than duplicates what others are using.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do these compare to premium stock footage?

The main advantage is specificity. Stock footage shows generic versions of location types; GenAerial shows your actual locations. For content where authenticity matters, custom imagery creates a more compelling viewer experience.

Yes. All GenAerial images come with full commercial rights when subscribed to a paid plan. Use them in monetized videos, sponsored content, client work, and commercial productions without additional licensing fees.

What about locations I haven't visited?

GenAerial works for any GPS coordinate. You can generate aerials of places you're planning to visit, locations you're researching, or destinations you're covering based on others' experiences. Just be transparent with your audience about what you have and haven't personally visited.

Can I get aerial views of places where drones are banned?

Yes. National parks, urban centers, airports, and other no-fly zones are all accessible through GenAerial. This is especially valuable for content creators covering locations with strict drone restrictions.
