About Us

  Our company was founded on the principle of providing the best quality  product for your hard earned dollar.

 The owner and operator of Cranbrook Aerial Video is Eric Barnes who retired from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police after 26 years of service with the last ten years  in the Forensic Identification Section or CSI.  Eric received numerous courses and  training in Videography and Photography which went hand in hand with his  passion for photography.

  With the invention of prosumer  Unmanned Aerial Vehicles(UAV'S) or as they're sometimes called "drones"  a new career path was born. With  UAV training obtained in 2015 . Today we possess the Small Advanced RPAS license under the new Transport Canada Regulations

   In 2016 our company started providing 3D mapping and photogrammetry services. With this new found use for UAV's a client can be supplied with a 3D map of their property or commercial enterprise and the estimated  volume of product on the ground can be supplied in cubic meters.

 Video and photography services have been provided for 

•  Clients building New Homes and Recreational Property( providing an edited before , during and after video)
• Advertising  your business - video is now the most popular method for advertising on websites and social media like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc
•  Insurance claims - Property damage , where perhaps it's too dangerous for the adjuster or homeowner to access the damaged area
•  Perhaps your have a special project you would like to have profesionally recorded and saved for future reference

  My goal is to provide customers with an end product they would be proud to share with their family and use as advertisment for their business. No job is complete until the customer is 100% satisfied with the final product.

   Our company has donated countless hours of videography and editing to Cranbrook Rotary - Gran Fondo as well as the  Kids iRide Program, the 2016 and 2017  Cranbrook Strongman Competition and the Trans Canada Trail Society

Sincerely,

         Eric
