Using an "octocopter," a remote controlled helicopter with a Canon 5D Mark III camera mounted to its underside, a number of aerial videos were shot of the entire Notre Dame campus in Pontiac. The video below shows a couple of fly-bys of the school's new lower-division facility at 1425 Giddings Road, which is across the street from the upper and middle divisions.
Notre Dame plans to use the footage as part of an upcoming marketing video.
