Flying Show Objects

Custom flying objects built to perform.

We create flying objects that become part of the show — visual characters, moving sculptures, and atmospheric elements designed to interact with the music, the story, and the space around them.

Each object is developed for a specific performance. Its shape, movement, lighting, and flight behavior are designed to support the creative vision and create moments that audiences remember.

Inside our technology

01 —Designed as characters and scenography

A flying object can be more than an effect. It can be a character, a symbol, a moving piece of scenography, or a visual extension of the performer. From luminous spheres and flying creatures to abstract sculptures and custom-built performance objects, we develop aerial elements that add scale, emotion, and movement to live productions.

  • Flying creatures and sculptural characters
  • Choreographed aerial effects
  • Illuminated flying objects and kinetic scenography

02 —Built for the demands of live performance

Our solutions combine creative design with practical flight technology. We develop the appropriate propulsion, control, lighting, camera, and safety systems for each object and its intended environment. Thanks to our broad selection of available drones, flight systems, components, and equipment, we can select the right platform for each application — whether the priority is precision, endurance, payload capacity, quiet operation, speed, or visual impact.

  • Integrated lighting and camera systems
  • Custom propulsion and flight-control solutions
  • Bespoke flight systems for indoor and outdoor productions

03 —From concept to performance

We support projects from the first creative sketch through to a fully operational show object. This includes concept development, mechanical and electronic prototyping, flight testing, choreography, production planning, and on-site technical coordination. The result is a flying system that is not only visually compelling, but reliable, controllable, and designed for the realities of live performance.

  • Development of prototypes and show-ready objects
  • Technical integration with music, lighting, video, and stage design
  • On-site coordination and flight testing

Developed by AeroMotion

Your vision.
Our engineering.

An extraordinary shape deserves its own way to move. We develop the technology beneath the surface, so the character of the object can lead the design.

Inside the idea

Our own flight controllers.

Compact electronics, purpose-built around the needs of a flying object. Our controller designs bring the hardware into the creative development process.

AMFlight

Control that follows the character.

AMFlight is our flight-control development platform. Alongside our own flight-controller designs and configuration tools, it gives us the freedom to develop control around the object’s geometry, propulsion and movement.

A wingbeat, a floating form, a change of colour. We can explore these details together, from the first creative brief to the electronics inside.

Explore lighting systems
  1. 01

    Freedom in form.

    Build the control concept around the silhouette, proportions and actuator layout. The creative idea sets the direction.

  2. 02

    Movement with a signature.

    Develop object-specific motion and tune its character, from a deliberate wing movement to the way a helium form responds.

  3. 03

    Light belongs in the story.

    Bring flight and lighting into the same design conversation. Develop colours, effects and control around a complete visual identity.

Our AMFlight software and own flight-controller family are in development. Each production is configured and tested for its particular object and creative brief.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. We develop AMFlight software, our own flight-controller designs and configuration tools around the needs of custom flying objects. This supports project-specific work on geometry, movement and lighting. The AMFlight platform and controller family are in development; production setups are reviewed and tested individually.

Custom-built flying characters, creatures or sculptural objects designed as part of the show, stage design and story. They can either be flying tethered or remote controlled, freely flying.

Yes. Every object and flight concept is developed around your creative direction, music, stage and production requirements.

Yes. Lighting, cameras and other visual features can be integrated where appropriate.

Yes. We design movement, timing, entrances and exits around the music, show cues and stage action.

Yes. We design for repeatable nightly performance, rehearsal workflows, transport and real-world touring conditions.

Yes. Our objects are suitable for arenas and other controlled indoor environments.

Safety comes first. Every project is assessed individually based on the object, venue, flight zone, audience layout and local requirements.

This depends on the object, venue, local regulations and the approved safety plan. We always design the safest suitable flying solution.

We support the process with technical planning, safety documentation and coordination. Final requirements depend on the country, venue and production.

Some flying objects (lighter-than-air designs) use helium, it depends on the object — we'll specify this during flight-system design based on the creative concept.

Yes — for helium-based objects, we have a system for helium recovery/reuse across a touring run rather than refilling from scratch at every stop, which helps with cost on touring productions.

As early as possible. Early involvement gives us more time for creative development, engineering, testing and show integration.

A short creative brief, dates, venue or tour information, references, desired show moment and production contact are a great start.

Questions & answers

What are flying show objects?

Flying show objects are custom flying creatures and sculptural characters used as moving scenography in live entertainment. AeroMotion Studio designs them to work with the music, story and performance space.

Can a flying object include lighting or cameras?

Integrated lighting and camera systems are available. The object and flight system are configured for the particular production, subject to technical, safety and legal assessment.
