    No-nonsense, gewoon vette designs, branding, video & animatie.

    Recommended
    Wij zijn Studio vibe. The new breed of creatives. Wij zijn verliefd op het creëren van vernieuwende merken. Dit doen we met passie, talent en ambitie. Positiviteit , vriendschap en vrijheid. Noem hoe je het wilt, wij noemen het onze ‘ vibe ’. Bij vibe doen we meer dan verwacht. We weten hoe we de perfecte mix van strategie, technologie, productie en creativiteit kunnen samenstellen om waarde te creëren voor jouw merk. Klanten zijn partners. We zouden er niet zijn zonder hen. Vertrouwen is voor ons daarom erg belangrijk. Een jonge groep digitale genieën geeft om uw project. We hebben geen sales team. We doen gewoon geweldig werk. Onze blik is fris en nuchter . No-nonsense, gewoon vette designs, branding, video & animatie. Het woord ‘vibe’ komt oorspronkelijk voort uit het engelse woord ‘vibration’ wat staat voor 'trilling'. Wat voor soort trillingen? Alles en iedereen trilt. Miljarden trillingen zijn verspreid over het hele universum. Deze trillingen zijn te verstaan, te voelen en over te brengen, maar ze zijn niet direct zichtbaar voor het menselijke oog. Het is bij ons van belang om onze ‘vibe’ aan iedereen door te geven en deze ook zo goed mogelijk uit te dragen. Daarom hebben we een aantal specifieke trillingen visueel zichtbaar gemaakt om te gebruiken als huisstijl-elementen. We hebben onder andere gewerkt voor: JBL, Univé, DJI, Insta 360, Harman/Kardon, Snelle, Grohe, Legamaster, Saxion Hogescholen, AT bookings, Don’t waste culture, Topicus, Traffic Today, Anne-Marie Wonen Holten, RIHO, By Sidde, Gemeente Rijssen-Holten. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- English below We are Studio vibe.

Call it what you will, we call it our 'vibe'. At vibe, we do more than expected. We know how to put together the perfect mix of strategy, technology, production and creativity to create value for your brand. Customers are partners. We wouldn't be here without them. Trust is therefore very important to us. A young group of digital geniuses care about your project. We don't have a sales team. We just do great work. Our view is fresh and down-to-earth . No-nonsense, just kickass designs, branding, video & animation. The word "vibe" originally comes from the word "vibration". What kind of vibration? Everything and everyone vibrates. Billions of vibrations are spread throughout the universe. These vibrations can be understood, felt and transmitted, but they are not immediately visible to the human eye. It is important for us to pass on our 'vibe' to everyone and to transmit it in the best possible way. Therefore, we have made a number of specific vibrations visually to use as corporate identity elements. We have worked for: JBL, Univé, DJI, Insta 360, Harman/Kardon, Snelle, Grohe, Legamaster, Saxion Hogescholen, AT bookings, Don't waste culture, Topicus, Traffic Today, Anne-Marie Wonen Holten, RIHO, By Sidde, Gemeente Rijssen-Holten.

    Real stories = Real results | Echte verhalen = Echte resultaten

    --English below-- Bij Mondha Media weten we dat echte verhalen, echte resultaten opleveren. Wij helpen al ruim 15 jaar organisaties, bedrijven en overheden een gezicht te geven aan hun verhalen. Video is het ideale middel om jouw (werkgevers)merk te verbinden met je doelgroep. Een krachtig middel waar gevoel, beeld en geluid samenkomen. Niet meer van die gladgestreken verkooppraatjes of content verstopt achter betaalmuren, maar echte verhalen. Video's waarin jij laat zien dat je de expert in je vakgebied bent. Waar je medewerkers op hun eigen wijze trots vertellen waarom ze graag bij je werken. En eerlijke reviews van klanten die aangeven hoe jij ze geholpen hebt. Jouw doelgroep is de hele dag door op het web en social media proactief op zoek naar waarde en antwoorden op hun vragen. Deel de juiste kennis, geef je beste tips en sta open om persoonlijke verhalen te vertellen. Echte unieke verhalen waar je online mee gevonden wilt worden. Waarmee je op een toegankelijke wijze met je volgers verbindt en een duurzame band met ze opbouwt. Een relatie die er voor zorgt dat ze klant worden of graag bij je solliciteren. Dat gaat stap voor stap, video voor video. Onze 3D aanpak (Denken + Draaien + Delen) is zo georganiseerd dat we de juiste stappen zetten. Niet zomaar een filmpje maken, maar de beste video voor de juiste kanalen waar jouw doelgroep zit. In co-creatie met ons bedenken en produceren we alles wat nodig is om jouw verhaal tot een succesverhaal te transformeren. Onze professionele en ontspannen sfeer voor, tijdens en na het filmen helpt daarbij. We zorgen dat iedereen zichzelf kan zijn op beeld. Zo vangen we echte verhalen van en met mensen. Die op hun beurt ook weer mensen raken; jouw doelgroep. En die verbinding zorgt voor succesvolle videoproducties en campagnes. Dat garanderen we! --------- At Mondha Media we know that real stories deliver real results. We have been helping organisations, companies and governments to visualise their stories for over 15 years. Video is the ideal tool to connect your (employer) brand with your target audience. A powerfull tool that combines emotions, vision and sound. Our professional and relaxed vibe before, during and after filming ensures that everyone can be themselves on screen. This is how we capture real stories from, about and with people. Which in turn also affects people; your target audience. And that connection delivers successful video productions and campaigns. Together we create compelling, informative or emotional stories about the working atmosphere, expertise, passion, customers, projects, products, services and more. All valuable and unique stories that deliver the desired result thanks to our 3D formula (in Dutch: Denken, Draaien, Delen. Which translates to: Think, Shoot, Share) We guarantee that!

Frequently Asked Questions.


Drone shooting companies in Amsterdam have become adept at customizing their services to meet the unique demands of various projects. Whether it's capturing the iconic canal houses, filming vibrant events, or showcasing the beautiful natural landscapes surrounding the city, these firms employ different strategies and equipment to deliver optimal results. Here's how they adapt their services:

1. Real Estate Projects:
  • High-resolution cameras: Used to capture crisp, detailed images of properties and their surroundings.
  • 360-degree panoramas: Provide potential buyers with immersive views of properties and neighborhoods.
  • Interior mapping: Some drones are equipped with specialized sensors for creating accurate floor plans.
  • Twilight shoots: Capturing properties during the 'golden hour' to highlight architectural features.
2. Event Coverage:
  • Agile drones: Smaller, more maneuverable drones are used to navigate crowded spaces safely.
  • Live streaming capabilities: Many firms offer real-time footage transmission for live events.
  • Multiple drone setups: For large-scale events like festivals, multiple drones may be deployed simultaneously.
  • Specialized lighting: Drones equipped with powerful LED lights for nighttime events or indoor venues.
3. Natural Landscapes:
  • Long-range drones: To capture expansive views of areas like the Amsterdamse Waterleidingduinen or Waterland.
  • Weather-resistant equipment: Necessary for operating in diverse conditions, especially near water bodies.
  • High-dynamic-range (HDR) imaging: To balance exposure in challenging lighting conditions.
  • Specialized filters: Used to enhance colors and contrast in natural settings.

Moreover, Amsterdam-based drone companies must navigate unique challenges:

Challenge Adaptation
Strict aviation regulations Obtaining necessary permits and adhering to 'no-fly zones' around Schiphol Airport
Privacy concerns in densely populated areas Using techniques like geo-fencing and blurring software to protect privacy
Unpredictable weather Flexible scheduling and weather-sealed equipment

According to a 2023 survey by the Dutch Drone Association, 78% of Amsterdam-based drone companies now offer project-specific packages, demonstrating the industry's commitment to tailored solutions. As technology advances, we can expect even more specialized services to emerge, further enhancing the capabilities of drone shooting firms in Amsterdam's diverse project landscape.



The drone shooting industry in Amsterdam is at the forefront of innovation, embracing cutting-edge techniques that are transforming the field. Here are some of the latest trends revolutionizing drone shooting in the Dutch capital:

  1. AI-powered autonomous flight: Advanced artificial intelligence is enabling drones to navigate complex urban environments like Amsterdam's canals and narrow streets with minimal human intervention. This technology allows for smoother shots and more creative angles.
  2. Hyperlapse and timelapse innovations: New software integrations are making it easier for drone operators to capture stunning hyperlapse and timelapse footage of Amsterdam's iconic landmarks and bustling city life, offering a unique perspective on the city's rhythm.
  3. 8K resolution and beyond: Ultra-high-definition cameras are becoming standard, allowing for incredibly detailed footage of Amsterdam's architecture and landscapes. This is particularly valuable for projects requiring post-production flexibility or large-format displays.
  4. LiDAR integration: Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) technology is being incorporated into drones, enabling precise 3D mapping of Amsterdam's urban landscape. This is especially useful for architectural surveys and urban planning projects.
  5. Improved low-light performance: Enhanced sensors and image processing are making it possible to capture high-quality footage during Amsterdam's atmospheric twilight hours or in dimly lit areas, expanding creative possibilities.
  6. Obstacle avoidance systems: More sophisticated obstacle detection and avoidance technologies are allowing safer flights in Amsterdam's busy airspace and around its numerous bridges and tall buildings.
  7. Dual-operator systems: Advanced drone models now support dual-operator control, where one person pilots the drone while another controls the camera. This setup is ideal for complex shots along Amsterdam's winding canals or during events.
  8. Real-time streaming capabilities: Drones equipped with 5G connectivity are enabling real-time high-quality video streaming, perfect for live events or immediate feedback during shoots in Amsterdam's vibrant event scene.
  9. Sustainable practices: In line with Amsterdam's commitment to sustainability, there's a growing trend towards using electric drones with longer flight times and quieter operations, minimizing environmental impact.
  10. Virtual reality integration: Some cutting-edge drones are now compatible with VR systems, allowing for immersive scouting of locations or even real-time VR experiences of Amsterdam from the air.

These innovative techniques are not only enhancing the quality and creativity of drone footage in Amsterdam but also opening up new possibilities for industries such as film production, real estate, tourism, and urban development. As drone technology continues to evolve, we can expect even more exciting advancements that will further revolutionize the field of drone shooting in this dynamic Dutch city.



When selecting a drone shooting company in Amsterdam for your project, several crucial factors should be taken into account to ensure you get the best results. Here are the key considerations:

  1. Legal Compliance and Certifications: Ensure the company is fully compliant with Dutch and EU drone regulations. They should have the necessary licenses from the Dutch Civil Aviation Authority (ILT) and be registered with the RDW (Netherlands Vehicle Authority).
  2. Experience and Portfolio: Look for a company with a strong track record in Amsterdam. Review their portfolio to see if they have experience with projects similar to yours, especially in urban environments like Amsterdam's unique cityscape.
  3. Equipment and Technology: The company should have access to high-quality drones and camera equipment. Ask about their capabilities in terms of 4K or even 8K video, stabilization technology, and specialized drones for different shooting scenarios.
  4. Local Knowledge: Amsterdam has specific drone flying restrictions, especially around Schiphol Airport and in the city center. A company with extensive local knowledge will navigate these restrictions effectively.
  5. Insurance Coverage: Verify that the company has adequate liability insurance. This is crucial for protecting both you and the company in case of accidents or property damage.
  6. Post-production Capabilities: If you need edited footage, ensure the company offers post-production services or can recommend reliable partners in Amsterdam.
  7. Flexibility and Availability: Amsterdam's weather can be unpredictable. Choose a company that can adapt to changing conditions and has flexible scheduling.
  8. Communication and Language Skills: While many Dutch professionals speak excellent English, clear communication is vital. Ensure the company can effectively understand and meet your project requirements.
  9. Pricing and Value: Compare quotes from different companies, but remember that the cheapest option isn't always the best. Consider the value offered in terms of quality, experience, and additional services.
  10. Environmental Considerations: Amsterdam is known for its commitment to sustainability. Consider companies that use energy-efficient equipment or have eco-friendly practices.

By carefully evaluating these factors, you'll be better equipped to choose a drone shooting company in Amsterdam that can deliver high-quality results while navigating the unique challenges and opportunities of this beautiful city.

According to recent data from the Dutch Drone Delta initiative, there are over 100 registered commercial drone operators in the Amsterdam metropolitan area as of 2023. This growing industry underscores the importance of choosing a reputable and experienced company for your project.
