Planning & Production
Your show, perfectly orchestrated.
Our team manages every phase of drone show development, from creative storyboarding and site assessment to FAA coordination and pre-flight testing. With every detail handled in-house, Firefly delivers precision, safety, and stunning performance every time.
We Start with a Creative Brief
Firefly Drone Shows meticulously plans each drone show to ensure a captivating and seamless aerial display.
Once the creative direction is approved, our animation team crafts a full storyboard and simulation of your show. Each scene is planned frame by frame to ensure your story flows naturally across the sky. No templates — every flight path is custom-built for your event. The team meticulously designs each sequence to capture the essence of your narrative, incorporating unique elements that reflect the theme and purpose of your event. This bespoke approach allows for a seamless integration of visuals and storytelling, creating an immersive experience that captivates your audience. The attention to detail in every aspect of the animation ensures that the final presentation is not only visually stunning but also emotionally resonant, leaving a lasting impression on all who witness it.
Custom Drone Show Storyboarding
After the creative direction is approved, our artists and animators begin transforming your concept into a visual story. Each sequence is custom storyboarded using our proprietary U.S.-made software to align movement, rhythm, and transitions to your theme or soundtrack.
This phase allows us to refine pacing and detail long before takeoff. Every animation is designed for clarity and impact, ensuring that when your audience looks to the sky, they experience a performance that feels alive and perfectly orchestrated.
Simulation Testing & FAA Approval
Before a single drone takes flight, our engineers run digital simulations and coordinate with the FAA for full regulatory compliance. Firefly’s U.S.-made drones are purpose-built for precision, ensuring reliability and safety from rehearsal to final performance.
Once testing is complete, our FAA-certified pilots and compliance specialists handle every step of the approval process. From airspace coordination to documentation, we ensure your drone show meets or exceeds all federal standards for safety and reliability.
Rehearsal & Launch
When production moves to the field, our pilots and engineers rehearse every second of the show with the same precision we bring to live performances. We calibrate drone lighting, positioning, and choreography to ensure perfect timing and flawless synchronization.
After rehearsals, it’s time for the real show. With full pre-flight checks and real-time monitoring, our crew executes the launch with precision and confidence. The result is a seamless, safe, and visually breathtaking display that captures every moment exactly as imagined.
