Real estate brokerages license stills and short passes per listing. Construction and development firms book a standing weekly or monthly visit so progress stays comparable frame to frame. Growers book a seasonal survey pass over row crop or pasture. Event planners and venues book a single ceremony or reception pass, cleared with the site ahead of time.
Every delivery is licensed for the use named at booking - a listing photo license is not a broadcast license, and a one-time event pass is not a stock license. Ask before repurposing delivered footage for anything beyond what was licensed.
When a flight will not happen
Some requests cannot be flown as asked, and that gets said plainly before booking rather than discovered on site. Weather grounds a flight when wind or visibility falls outside safe limits. Airspace near an airport requires clearance that can be denied or delayed past the shoot date. Flying directly over a crowd of people who are not part of the operation is against Part 107 rules regardless of how the client asks for it framed. A shot that cannot be flown legally is not offered as a workaround - a legal alternative angle is, or the booking is declined.
