About Me

Garrison Magyar

Film maker, production company owner, and FPV pilot based in Salt Lake City, Utah. I create cinematic, fast-paced media that blends high-end FPV drone work with documentary-style realism to make brands, events, and environments feel immersive, intentional, and premium.

I started making videos professionally around 2018, cutting my teeth in Los Angeles while working with creators and fast-moving production teams. That environment taught me to move quickly, adapt on the fly, and tell compelling stories with limited time and resources.

Over the years, my work has evolved from creator-driven content into high-end commercial and cinematic production, with a strong focus on advanced aerial and FPV work. I blend technical precision with story, scale, and emotion.

How I Work

Every project starts with one question:
what's the story?

My approach combines technical excellence with creative vision to deliver work that resonates.

01

Immersion Over Perfection

I prioritize shots that pull viewers in over generic beauty shots. The goal is to make people feel like they're there—in the moment, feeling the energy.

This means dynamic camera movement, intentional pacing, and capturing authentic moments that can't be staged.

02

Technical Precision

Mastering the technical side means the creative side is never limited. I invest in both so neither holds back the work.

From custom FPV builds to cinema cameras, I use professional-grade equipment and stay current with the latest techniques.

03

Story First, Always

Cool shots mean nothing without purpose. Every frame should move the narrative forward and serve the bigger picture.

Before any shoot, we define the story together. This clarity drives every creative decision from pre-production to final delivery.

What Sets Me Apart

Not Just a Drone Operator.
A Cinematic Partner.

I see FPV and aerial work as a major differentiator—not just another service. It's what opens doors to higher-level projects and sets the work apart immediately.

But clients don't hire me just to fly a drone. They hire me for creative execution and problem-solving—a full cinematic and storytelling approach that happens to include world-class aerial capabilities.

The combination of advanced FPV skills with traditional cinematography knowledge means I can deliver shots that most operators simply cannot execute.
