About me

Jeff Brink was the Co-Founder and Director of Flight Operations at Aerobo, a premiere aerial cinematography drone company. After graduating from NYU Tisch School of the Arts in 2011, Jeff worked professionally in the film industry as an assistant cameraman and electrician in NY while shooting commercials and shorts on the side. In 2013, he ventured into aerial cinematography and started Aerobo where he led the team of engineers and pilots in developing complete, production-friendly, aerial systems for filming services. Jeff wrote the General Operations and Safety Manuals which allowed Aerobo to secure one of the first 333 Exemptions to fly legally in the U.S. Furthermore, using his background in film, Jeff helped pioneer heavy lift drones which became Aerobo’s specialty. Aerobo garnered attention from the industry when they became the first to fly the Alexa XT, 3D stereo REDs, and the first cinema zoom lens and 3-channel FIZ system on a drone. Additionally, Aerobo’s Chernobyl drone video won the NYC Drone Film Festival in 2015.
