We've had the privilege of working with leading broadcasters and production teams — here's what they had to say.
Phil is my go to drone guy. We've collaborated on a variety of travel programmes including Hold the front Page and Rosie Jones Trip Hazard, filming from FPV action sequences to beautiful sunset timelapses. Creative, independent, always giving me amazing extra shots and on top of that he's a lovely friendly guy too. Looking forward to working with him again on my next show
Tom LevingeTV / Film DirectorWe have worked with Phil over several years and we have used his skills on many of our shows including Helicopter ER, Masters of Reinvention and Cumbria : The Lakes and The Coast. He fits in perfectly with our production teams and we'll definitely work with Phil again.
Matt RichardsManaging Director, Air TVPhil has produced some exemplary drone work on our productions at Daisybeck Studios including Fletchers Farm, Yorkshire Vet and Springtime on the Farm. He has a great talent and passion for capturing stunning aerial footage that enhanced the visuals of our programs.
Kim MetcalfeSeries Producer, Daisybeck StudiosHi Phil, just wanted to drop you a line and say your drone shots have come out brilliantly for Shop Smart, Save Money: Channel 5- they've really upgraded the show! Thanks again.
Jess MatthewsDirector, North OneAs the creator and series producer of Canal Boat Diaries, I’ve worked with Phil for the past six years. His stunning drone camerawork is a vital part of each episode, capturing the landscapes and atmosphere that bring the series to life. Beyond his talent, he’s a great person to work with - reliable, creative, and a real asset on location.
Stuart WoodmanSeries Director (BBC / U&Yesterday)On Gentleman Jack we had Halo Vue who are a local drone company and Phil, who did a brilliant job. It was interesting to see somewhere like Shibden Hall as it’s quite difficult to describe as a location from the ground.
Matt Gray, DOP Gentleman JackBSC CinematographerPhil Fearnley is a consummate professional and an absolute asset to any production team. His work on Vintage Voltage brought a whole new dimension to the series.
Andrew ShawAttaboy TV CEOProfessional, talented and reliable, Phil is that rare thing, both a highly skilled operator and a thoroughly nice guy to boot. It’s always a pleasure to work with Phil, and his drone work is beautiful.
Richard HeeleySeries Producer / DirectorPhil was a joy to work with and was the life and soul of the crew. Would work with him again in a heartbeat.
Rosie JonesActress, writer and ComedianI have worked with Phil Fearnley and Halo Vue for several years and on a good number of high profile shows. Phil is always prompt, quick to understand the brief, adaptable, professional and good company. I would have no hesitation at all in recommending Halo Vue to others.
Nick SmallDirectorWorking with Phil and Halo Vue gave me the chance to stand back and do my job as I had 100% faith that they would deliver beautiful drone shots without the need for me to be watching over a monitor. The results these guys produced are some of the best I have seen and would always get my clients to use Halo Vue.
Jamie KnightsD.O.P Eva ProductionsI’ve known Phil Fearnley for some time and finally had the good sense to bring him on board for a few recent shoots. He brings a calm assurance to the set - the kind that only comes with real expertise. His multi-drone work is precise, cinematic, and quietly spectacular.
Dave HackneyDOP The Digital CortexI had the pleasure of working with Phil Fearnley at Halo Vue Drone Services, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Phil is exceptionally knowledgeable and reliable—his expertise was clear from the outset. Not only did he deliver work that was perfectly on brief and second to none in quality, but he also offered great advice throughout.
