As an efficient shooting tool, drones, especially the application of video materials, have been extended to professional industries such as film and television, and advertising.
UAV aerial photography, flight technology, and shooting technology are indispensable.
From the control of the drone, the reasonable setting of parameters, to the various aerial photography techniques and post-editing, you must continue to learn, plus enough time to practice, it is enough to advance to a drone aerial photography expert. This article briefly introduces aerial photography.
1. Highlight the sense of space
You often see such scenes in movies: After passing through the foreground, you encounter a vast and open-minded scenery.
If you want to shoot this kind of shot, you can fly through a combination of operations. For example: control the aircraft to go up, back and go up at the same time, or fly sideways and go up and down at the same time.
In this way, by combining several levers together, compared with single-level flight control, your picture can bring a more spatial feeling to people!
If you are not proficient in operation, you can use the pointing flight function to free up more space for you to operate other levers and adjust shooting parameters, so as to achieve more complex flight changes!
2. Fly low over the subject
Most users often have a misunderstanding about aerial photography: aerial photography, of course, the higher the flight, the better!
In the shooting of movies, there are also such pictures: the lens passes by the subject at close range, thereby highlighting the impact of the picture.
On the contrary, it can bring people a more shocking on-the-spot experience!
3. Select a direction to move forward or pan
UAVs fly in three-dimensional space, and novices are often in a hurry when going to the sky; the joystick of the remote control has a short stroke and is very light, and novices tend to use too much force when operating it (imagine driving a car, the steering wheel, accelerator, and brake are all in one click).
But in fact, aerial photography does not necessarily need to add so many special effects. After adjusting the nose pointing, start recording, and then just push the lever in one direction to take a natural aerial video.
For the first flight, you can just fly forward, which is the simplest, the risk of collision is the lowest, and the effect can be very good. You must know that the aerial shots at the beginning of "Fast and Furious 8" are nothing more than that. If you don't feel excited enough, you can speed up the speed in the video editing software.
After you get more proficient, you can try to fly sideways, and it is easier to just put the club to one side. But more attention should be paid to avoiding collisions. It is best to ask a friend to help observe the distance between the drone and the obstacles.
