Behind the Aerial Filming of Netflix’s Spooky in Love in Singapore

Singapore recently took centre stage in the Korean drama Spooky in Love, with its characters visiting some of the city’s most recognisable destinations. Skyshot was engaged to provide drone filming services for the production while it was filming in Singapore.

Now streaming on Netflix, Spooky in Love is a supernatural romantic comedy starring Park Eun-bin, Yang Se-jong and Ong Seong-wu. Singapore features prominently in episodes nine and ten, bringing a distinctly local setting to the story.

Capturing Singapore for an International Production

The Singapore scenes take the characters through locations including Resorts World Sentosa, Singapore Oceanarium, Kampong Glam, Clarke Quay, Lau Pa Sat and the Marina Bay area.

For an international production, aerial footage does more than establish location. It introduces the city's scale, energy, and character, giving audiences a stronger sense of place as the story moves from Korea to Singapore.

Skyshot’s role was to support the production with professional aerial filming and local drone expertise. Working with the production team, we helped translate the visual requirements of the series into aerial shots that could be captured safely and efficiently within Singapore’s operating environment.

Aerial Filming in Singapore

Drone filming in Singapore requires careful preparation, particularly when production takes place around busy urban areas, prominent landmarks and controlled airspace.

Every location presents a different combination of considerations, including:

• Airspace and regulatory requirements

• Proximity to buildings, roads and members of the public

• Take-off and landing locations

• Weather and changing light conditions

• Coordination with the production schedule

• Maintaining visual continuity with ground-based cameras
  

For international productions on tight filming schedules, having an experienced local aerial team helps streamline the process. Skyshot combines flight planning and regulatory knowledge with an understanding of professional film-production workflows.

Our CAAS-certified pilots work closely with directors, cinematographers and production teams to determine the safest and most effective way to achieve each required aerial perspective.

Skyshot’s experience across television, documentary, corporate and engineering productions allows our crew to operate comfortably within these demanding environments.
