Compensation for drone & missing footage

    Hi, we paid a photography/videography company a total amount of 4,000 euro to cover photos/videos for 2 full days as part of my sister's wedding last summer.

    - The company was to use drone footage on both events as this was stated in our contract. However, the company showed up to both events without a drone (claiming that it had not been working). They instead inserted 3 drone shots of the same venue from a different wedding video they had shot into ours. This was done without our consent or permission (never-mind the other party whose shots they used).

    - Significant footage from one of the events is missing and not in the final video. The company were unresponsive to our concerns over this missing footage. We do not know whether it has been lost/misplaced or whether it was ever shot in the first place.

    - Furthermore in response to our inquiry over the missing drone footage at one of the events which was hosted at our home, they informed us in an email that they had come to our home 'the other day' and shot drone footage of our property. This was done at a time after the wedding and we were not informed or asked whether it would be okay for them to tape our home. This footage is not in the final video.

    I am wondering out of the total amount of 4K, what would be an appropriate compensation for the missing drone and footage?

    You have already started a thread on this over in the photography forum and are not getting the answers you like so decide to start a second thread here :confused:

    It seems, from your parallel post in Photography forum, that you have exhausted all legal avenues, i.e. your solicitor has advised against legal action and the small claims court has rejected you application.

    Is it possible that the drone footage was only a very small part of the contract? Were other photographs and video footage supplied?
