Immortal Love sent two Mercedes G-Class vehicles through Kyiv streets, a bridge and a forest at night for Anorak and director Sebastian Strasser.

In the darkest sequence, Andriu FPV followed at roughly 100 km/h with the drone-mounted light as the pilot's only reliable visual reference. Route memory, car choreography and one integrated camera-light system turned near-total darkness into a controlled pursuit.

The Challenge

This short-film-style campaign moved between city streets, a bridge and a forest at night, often with two vehicles in close formation. In the darkest forest sequence, flown at around 100 km/h, the drone-mounted light was effectively the pilot's only visual reference. If the light failed, the route and surrounding trees would disappear instantly while the drone was still moving at speed.

Our Approach

We configured the drone, camera and lighting as one integrated night-flight system and rehearsed the forest geography before darkness. The pursuit lines were coordinated tightly with the cars so the light served both the image and the pilot's orientation. Reliability and route memory turned a nearly black environment into a controlled cinematic space.
