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]
