Marc Wolff

He has worked on many action films as an aerial coordinator, working on over 170 films. He worked on his first film in 1974. On films, he works with the second unit. Where an aerial sequence (often found in action and science-fiction films) is required, he coordinates the aerial shot from a helicopter.

He works with Flying Pictures of the UK, based at the former RAF Chilbolton in the Test Valley district of western Hampshire. Flying Pictures claims to be the world leader in aerial & helicopter filming services for feature films.

In the 2012 Summer Olympics opening ceremony, he flew the helicopter for the section flying along the River Thames, next to Big Ben, entitled Isles of Wonder, also known as Journey along the Thames. He also flew the helicopter for the pre-recorded sequence known as Happy and Glorious, flying it straight through Tower Bridge, with camerawork by John Marzano. The sequence ended with an AgustaWestland AW139 flying above the Olympic Stadium, with the Queen portrayed by Julia McKenzie, who appeared to parachute from the helicopter; he piloted this helicopter above the Olympic Stadium. The two parachutists were Mark Sutton (James Bond) and Gary Connery (Queen). A similar helicopter is seen at the end of Skyfall, which he had helped to film the aerial sequences.
