So, you've ever been sitting on the couch, iPad in hand, zoning out because Apple TV's aerial screensavers suddenly kicked in? Stunning aerial footage of mountains, ocean waves, and city skylines — but wait... are these actually real?
Short answer: Yes, absolutely! Apple's aerial screensavers aren't CGI or digital animations — they're genuine, breathtaking footage captured by helicopters and drones flying over some of the most gorgeous locations on Earth. We're talking about real beaches, real forests, and real skyscrapers, all filmed in gorgeous 4K resolution.
Apple has partnerships with professional filmmakers and production teams who travel the world to capture these looping clips. Places like Hawaii, New York City, and the Scottish Highlands aren't just pretty backdrops on a photo — they're the actual locations we're staring at while pretending to do something productive.
