So you bought a DJI Mavic, you have your own drone, and you have discovered that you can make some pretty cool drone videos.
Maybe you have even sold a few of those videos to real estate clients.
Congratulations, you are a commercial drone operator and welcome to the drone industry.
However, that does not make you a Drone Cinematographer or Aerial Cinematographer.
To go from being a drone owner to a much sought-after aerial cinematographer you need to acquire some special artistic and technical skills.
You will have to learn new flight techniques, you may need to attend a flight certification course, and will need to acquire the proper FAA Licenses and drone insurance.
Moreover, you have to learn the difference between a basic photo and video, aerial shots, and genuinely artistic aerial cinematography.
Our partners aerial cinematography training course will show you how to take your drone photography or drone videography business to the next level.
Learn how to become a professional drone videography artist.
With the first hand and in-person certification course, you will learn to fly professional drone cinematography systems, think like a filmmaker, capture stunning aerial shots, edit to get the best artistic end-product and deliver award-winning cinematic drone videography.
Do you want to make money flying your unmanned aerial system to capture high-quality drone videography?
Drones, even the low-end consumer versions such as a Mavic Air, can be used to produce amazing aerial footage.
Professional drone cinematographers can capture such stunning footage that until recently could only be achieved by costly Hollywood professional technology and studios.
Yes, the professional equipment available today has changed the game.
However, just as with professional photography, just owning the latest aerial platform or the newest aerial photography equipment does not make you an artist, and does not automatically guarantee a path to becoming a successful aerial videographer or cinematographer.
Moreover, it certainly does not mean that you will build a successful drone video business.
With the advent of the new drone videography technology, amateurs have flooded media outlets with mediocre, average, or even dull aerial imagery.
As a result, audiences are demanding more. They understand there is a big difference between a basic “drone aerial footage” and emotion-stirring aerial cinematography.
Viewers and buyers are demanding more professional output, better quality, and more artistry!
Our partners have been in the aerial cinematography business before drones became a household word.
Hannah and Jessi were filmmaker and cinematographers who embraced drone technology.
Also, when the technology did not solve all their needs, they invented solutions (check out Ghost Gimbals).
We were first video cinematographers before we became drone cinematographers.
We were early adopters and as artists had the good fortune of working with some real discerning studios to capture adventure footage, high-end cinema footage, and high-quality live broadcast video.
Along the way, we pioneered real drone video artistry. It’s been a fantastic ride and along the way, we made a lot of mistakes and learned the difference between what delivers average and what’s required to produce stunning footage.
