Advanced Aviation Prototyping & Robotics

As an early pioneer in the field of UAV videography, Kippenberger stated in a 2012 interview published in Wired:

“Drones are strictly tools [for] creating a certain look we want to achieve. This is only the very early beginning of this movement and we are thrilled to be involved at such an early stage"[7]

Kippenberger is a regular featured session speaker, see--- Drones and Aerial Robotics Conference held at New York University in October 2013.[8]

Renowned for his unique, premium take on auto videography Kippenberger founded Studio Kippenberger, bringing together a passion for cars with his natural ability to create sex appeal in order to approach the genre in a completely new way, maximizing creativity and pushing innovation.

For the TED Conference in Berlin Germany, Kippenberger had artists and independent filmmakers pick a Berlin landmark and use camera-equipped drones to capture it on video. From this, Kippenberger created a historic view of the city from an entirely new perspective.[11]
