My name is Markus Schäffer,
I am the managing director of the company Skyeventservice.
My father taught me how to fly model airplanes when I was just six years old. Since then, it has become my great passion. With this passion, I have turned my hobby into a career.
I have been flying model airplanes commercially since 2008. My repertoire includes multicopters (drones) of all kinds, zeppelins in different sizes and variations, as well as other inflatables in different sizes and shapes.
The starting signal for my career was given in the SAP Arena in Mannheim, where I fly advertising flights with zeppelins.
My references also include large football stadiums such as the Schalke Arena. There, my team and I flew an advertising flight with a four-meter zeppelin. We also used professional drones to create several video recordings that were broadcast in TV commercials for well-known companies and brands.
After various collaborations with other partners, I can look back on over 660 events of all kinds worldwide. From numerous trade fairs to concerts, TV events, live TV events and sporting events, everything is there.
In addition, in 2016 I was able to make the company Skyeventservice my dream and opened this company and built it up with very good partners and highly trained pilots.
Today I can say that it is a pleasure for me and my team to take on the challenges of building different types of flying objects and accompanying your event. This can be a simple, top-designed zeppelin with full HD live image transmission, or inflatable, remote-controlled game balls such as basketballs or ice hockey pucks, or remote-controlled pizzas, hearts, technically designed flying cubes, airplanes and much more.
Another versatile fascination is taking photos and films from a "bird's eye view". With the multicopters we can effortlessly take impressive pictures and videos from different angles and positions, which is not possible with any other aircraft of this type. Just the view from 20 meters up gives you a completely different picture of your surroundings. The particular challenge is to follow an object at the same distance and to film it from different angles, for example for advertising films or sports videos.
My goal is to inspire the customer.
My team and I master stressful situations with a lot of experience that we have gained in over 660 events and always keep a cool head.
My daily motivation to constantly improve with the challenges is what makes this job so unique for me.
Let my passion infect you and convince you of my work.
