Bro you just saved my life. I have the same exact workflow as you but for some reason I couldn’t understand why the quality of my photos sucked when importing them into FCPX. I never did the custom size timeline. I would only do standard 4k. You my friend are a life saver. THANK YOU 🙏🏾.

Amazing video my friend. I have zero experience, and i am looking for a method to do 3d modeling with this drone, since SDK is not available, i think hyperlapse is the key.

[@MM-dc3wi]

Ciao, è possibile che in presenza di molto vento non si riesca?

[@alainparent5025]

Thanks for this , from a new videographer ;)

[@DroneFate]

Appreciate it & good luck on your journey!

[@DoronBond]

7:34 nice video..can you explain the motion blur..didn’t know you needed a filter for that I thought it was the seconds per frame that created that

[@DroneFate]

by using nd filters you restrict the amount of light entering your camera which allows you to get slower shutter speeds for more natural looking video. with slower shutter speeds we can achieve that natural motion blur the human eye is accustomed to

[@hummerzdca]

So if I just wanted to do a stationary ‘hyper lapse’ without way points, (a freeway traffic video) is all I want, how can I do that?

[@DroneFate]

There’s a “free” option when you open hyperlapse on your screen

[@jamieandrei]

Yo Farhaan..what size (resolution) are the M3P hyperlapse photos? DJI says 12, 20 & 48mp.. can't find definitive info anywhere.. ta mate.. ***oohhh.. at 10:29 is looks like 20MP (5272x3948).. is that correct?

[@DroneFate]

Mini 3 pro or mavic 3 pro?

[@jamieandrei]

@@DroneFate Mavic 3 Pro.. I think I answered it.. at 1x it's 12mp & at 3x it's 20mp or 48mp pixel shift composite.. bit tricky to find tbh.. ta mate..

[@DroneFate]

@@jamieandrei mavic 3 pro main camera is a 4/3” hasselblad which shoots 20mp, 3x shoots 12/48

[@jamieandrei]

@@DroneFate brilliant.. thank you.. 🙏

[@s.f.6846]

Thanks for the video! I have the Mavic 3, question: When I take the photos in 4:3 and I want the final hyperlapse video to be 16:9,- should I crop the photos in Lightroom to 16:9 first or should I crop the stabilized video in FcP? Because as I understand I should use the highest quality images possible to stabilize first and after that I can create a new project in FCPX with 16:9 5K settings (5120 x 2880), correct? Thank you!

[@DroneFate]

I dont crop them in Lr as i want the full picture size in fcp, once i create the hyperlapse in fcp i export it with the same photo size settings (5120x2880) then i open another project either 16:9 or 9:16 & add the hyperlapse file there & resize acdordingly, this way you have all the original resolution to crop in & resize. Shooting in 4:3 uses the entire sensor.

[@s.f.6846]

@@DroneFate Thanks a lot, perfect explanaition! By having one project with the original size/ resolution setting I stay real flexible and can later create all different kind of projects based on the aspect ratio I want. Makes total sense but requires some understanding.

[@DroneFate]

@@s.f.6846 you got it! Having that hyperlapse video (5120x2880) gives you that flexibility to resize/crop for future projects all that resolution for you also to not lose quality

[@ha-media]

Great video👏👏. Sounds like someone is fully sending it in the background (FPV)😂😂

[@DroneFate]

Thank you! I was meeting my fpv group so i thought might as well make a video too, we had a fixed wing too

[@backyard3749]

OK, so I got the part of how to use the drone to record the photos. But then you lost me with Lightroom or Photoshop because I have neither. It seems though that no matter what program you are using, what you are doing is taking all of the photos you took and making a "movie" out of those photos. In other words, you are making a "Hyperlapse Movie." Not some special "Hyperlapse" setting and different thing, right?

[@DroneFate]

So you start with the drone obviously, shoot photos in raw which you then edit using lightroom. Once you’re done editing the raw images, export them. Import those images to your video editing app & merge them to one clip. In terms of “special settings” i got over shutter speeds & the different modes for different situations such as using an nd filter to get motion blur or the creativity with using different modes.
