I'd like to think today's tech would make this less of a problem. Have a drone camera flying around the balloon. No limited reels of film, in a big clunky camera, attached to a helicopter following along. Film much more footage than you need, and make minor adjustments to move the balloon, and then edit it down to the perfect shots.
