FOUNDER & CEO, INTERNATIONAL UAV PILOT, AERIAL CINEMATOGRAPHER, INNOVATION PIONEER & TRACKING VEHICLE ARM OPERATOR

Wesley Green is an internationally recognised aerial cinematographer, heavy-lift drone pilot, and UAV systems innovator with over two decades of experience at the forefront of aerial filmmaking. As the Founder and CEO of Big Shot Films, Wesley has shaped the evolution of South Africa’s drone cinematography landscape, pioneering platforms, techniques, and regulations that are now standard across the industry.

Wesley’s work spans 18 countries across Africa, Europe, and the Middle East — from Netflix, Marvel, Disney+, and Amazon Prime productions to large-scale infrastructure documentation, industrial surveys, and high-speed action commercials. He holds full UAV licenses from the South African Civil Aviation Authority (SACAA), UK CAA, and EASA (Europe), giving him legal authority to operate in controlled, restricted, and sensitive airspaces in a large percentage of the world.

Whether flying an ARRI Alexa Mini on a Freefly Alta X or a RED Epic on a turbine-powered RC helicopter, Wesley is known for his surgical precision, creative instincts, and calm execution under pressure — making him a go-to operator for elite directors, production teams, and global brands alike.
