Test-stand documentation
Propulsion test stands, structural test articles, environmental chambers, and qualification campaigns. Multi-camera capture coordinated around real test schedules.
Brand films for aerospace.
Project planning for launch, satellite, propulsion, eVTOL, and aerospace-hardware teams. WERZ is California-based; regulated, restricted, or safety-critical scopes are evaluated against client-provided requirements before booking.
Quick answer
What does aerospace video production look like for a hardware-first space company?
Aerospace video can combine founder narrative, approved factory or test-site capture, and aerial where the site and airspace permit it. WERZ's adjacent public reference is Cosmic Robotics field production; aerospace access, safety, export-control, and disclosure requirements must be defined by the client and reviewed before booking.
Posture
Aerospace production, test-stand-aware.
- Part 107
- FAA-certified for non-launch-facility aerial
- Client-led
- Access, safety, and disclosure requirements
- Case by case
- Restricted or regulated project acceptance
- California
- Travel available for an approved scope
Aerospace video has a particular gravity. The product is physical, expensive, and slow to iterate. Test campaigns happen on a schedule; integration windows are short; launch operations are airspace-constrained. Generic brand-film agencies cannot operate inside that envelope without dropping deliverables.
WERZ's adjacent public reference is Cosmic Robotics: founder, factory, deployment, and aerial footage for physical technology in the field. It demonstrates hardware storytelling, not completed aerospace production.
For an aerospace inquiry, the client identifies site access, safety, export-control, disclosure, airspace, storage, and review requirements. WERZ evaluates whether it can support those requirements and scopes only the accepted capture and deliverables. WERZ does not determine ITAR or other regulatory status.
Capabilities
Aerospace video, across formats.
Integration + factory shoots
Potential approved integration, assembly, vehicle, or engine-floor capture. The client provides cleanliness, safety, access, storage, and review requirements; WERZ confirms feasibility before booking.
Investor-deck brand films
Cinematic 60-90 second founder + product films for Series A/B/C aerospace decks. Built around what is shippable today, scoped to the public disclosure envelope.
FAA Part 107 aerial (off-launch facility)
Site-scale aerial for aerospace factories, integration buildings, eVTOL test sites, and hangars. We coordinate Part 107 with site security and local TFRs — launch-pad aerial is FAA-restricted, captured by the operator.
Recruiting senior aerospace engineers
Founder, chief engineer, and senior-architect films built to convert senior aerospace candidates. Mission, day-to-day, and engineering specificity that job posts cannot deliver.
Customer + partner stories
Satellite operator narratives, launch-services customer stories, eVTOL fleet-operator stories, and DoD-adjacent partner films. All inside the disclosure envelope, all pre-cleared.
Hardware reference work
Closest reference: field-scale hardware build.
Process
Built around the test schedule.
Test + integration schedule first
Aerospace operations do not move for the production. We scope the shoot around the actual test campaign, integration window, or vehicle build calendar — not the other way around.
Requirements review
The client and its counsel identify confidentiality, export-control, safety, access, storage, and approval requirements. WERZ accepts or declines the scope after reviewing those controls.
Multi-day field production
Multi-day shoots across test stands, integration buildings, factories, hangars, and founder interviews. Ground + Part 107 aerial paired where the facility envelope permits.
Pre-cleared delivery
Hero film, capability reel, social cutdowns, deck-embed loops, customer-story versions, and recruiting cuts — all from the same shoot, all pre-cleared.
Use cases
Where aerospace video earns its budget.
Series A/B/C aerospace fundraising
Cinematic founder + product brand films built for the investor deck. The asset that anchors the pitch and survives a partner meeting full of aerospace skeptics.
Test campaign + flight documentation
Test-stand fires, integration milestones, flight tests, and qualification campaigns. The footage that funds the next round.
Recruiting senior aerospace engineers
Films that explain the mission and the day-to-day to senior propulsion, structures, GNC, avionics, and integration candidates. Outperforms job-post outreach at the senior level.
DoD + commercial sales
Capability films, customer-deployment narratives, and partner stories that move long enterprise aerospace sales cycles — defense, satellite operators, eVTOL fleet operators.
Space Symposium, SmallSat, AIAA booth + on-stand
Booth loops, hero reels, on-stand video, and demo-day pitch films for aerospace industry events.
Customer + partner stories
Satellite operator narratives, launch-services customer stories, eVTOL fleet-operator stories, and prime/DoD-adjacent partner films — pre-cleared.
FAQ
Common questions.
Can you shoot at aerospace test stands and integration sites?
Potentially. The client must provide the site, safety, access, export-control, disclosure, storage, and review requirements. WERZ then evaluates feasibility and confirms in writing what it can support before booking. The Cosmic Robotics work shown here is an adjacent hardware reference, not aerospace-specific experience.
Do you fly drones at launch facilities?
WERZ does not claim launch-facility or aerospace-drone experience. Sebastian Werz holds an FAA Part 107 remote-pilot certificate, but any proposed flight still depends on airspace, site permission, safety, insurance, operating restrictions, and client approval. Aerospace aerial is evaluated case by case.
What does aerospace video production cost?
Aerospace brand films typically run $30,000-$100,000 for a single shoot package (hero film + capability cuts + investor-deck loop). Multi-site campaigns with test-stand documentation, integration shoots, founder + customer stories, and Part 107 aerial scale to $100,000-$250,000. Pricing reflects operating envelope, NDA workflow, and multi-day field shooting.
What aerospace sub-verticals do you cover?
WERZ will consider founder stories, public product demonstrations, approved factory or test-site capture, recruiting content, and aerial where the site and airspace permit it. Restricted or regulated work is accepted only after client-provided requirements are reviewed.
Are you based in the Los Angeles aerospace corridor?
WERZ is California-based with statewide production reach. The LA / Long Beach / Mojave aerospace corridor is the natural geography for this work, alongside Bay Area satellite and propulsion companies and San Diego defense-adjacent aerospace.
How does WERZ price video, web, or marketing work?
Pricing is scope-based, not template-based. We define deliverables, audience, locations, crew, and revisions before quoting — so the budget reflects actual production needs rather than a pre-set tier.
Can WERZ work from a fixed budget?
Yes. A fixed budget works best when deliverables, locations, revision rounds, and timeline are clear before production starts. We will tell you what is achievable inside the budget rather than promise more than the scope supports.
Are there ongoing retainers, or only project work?
Both. Most marketing and web programs run as monthly retainers (strategy, content, optimization). Video and brand projects are typically scoped per engagement, with optional content retainers for ongoing assets.
How long does a typical engagement take?
Discovery and strategy run 1–2 weeks; production and build run 3–8 weeks depending on scope; launch and iteration kicks off after delivery. Marketing programs are ongoing with measurable milestones at month one, month three, and month six.
Can you accommodate a tight deadline?
Yes, when the scope and approval lanes are tight. Rush projects work best when the team can lock decisions quickly and accept fewer revision rounds. We will tell you upfront if a deadline is unrealistic for the scope.
