When top-notch film directors shoot in Hawaii, they call Blue Hawaiian. Here's why.

The spectacular scenery and aura of romance in our Islands of Aloha may draw the attention of some of the industry's biggest name directors and producers, but shooting a major motion picture in Hawaii is a tricky business. Which is why Hollywood's top professionals only work with the best and most experienced movie experts in the state. In no area of the complex and extremely expensive business of making movies is this more important than with aerial photography. Here the film maker is not only trusting the helicopter company to get spectacular shots, but to keep crew and equipment safe from harm while flying in some of the most challenging conditions imaginable.

It is no small recognition, therefore, that when top movie professionals come to Hawaii, over and over they trust the aerial photography on their multi-million dollar productions to Blue Hawaiian Helicopters. This is why Blue Hawaiian has been chosen for so many big-budget, high risk films.

Blue Hawaiian’s incredible aerial photography is displayed on Steven Spielberg’s mega-hit Jurassic Park and its’ sequel, The Lost World. Other phenomenal aerials are seen in the action thrillers Flight of the Intruder, Crimson Tide and the Disney production Pearl Harbor. Other Disney features include the comedy George of the Jungle and Six Days, Seven Nights with Harrison Ford. Aerials for the films Honeymoon in Vegas with Nicolas Cage and Pirates of the Caribbean At World’s End with Johnny Depp. The company recently finished work with Ben Stiller on his new production Tropic Thunder. Blue Hawaiian has not only been shooting aerial photography in  major motion pictures, but actually has a supporting role. In the movie The Big Bounce, Blue Hawaiian CEO, Dave Chevalier, is the helicopter pilot for real estate developer Ray Ritchie, played by Gary Sinise.

Television producers also know the value of Blue Hawaiian Helicopters. Dozens of classic TV commercials, MTV, the Dating Game, The Food Channel, The Weather Channel and National Geographic have all utilized Blue Hawaiian's services. And when Wheel of Fortune came to the Big Island for an entire week of shows, once again it was Blue Hawaiian that handled the aerial photography. Next time you're thinking of booking a helicopter flight on Maui or the Big Island, remind yourself why movie professionals choose Blue Hawaiian. Perhaps they know something you should know?
