20 ESSENTIAL CINEMATIC DRONE SHOTS FOR ANY DRONE!

[@peterash9375]

I don't know what is more beautiful: the landscape or Alina. What a great video.

[@rogergedminas4668]

Super awesome examples at one location!

[@lazrexpp2702]

That scenario reminds me to death stranding, at any moment, sam porter will pass by with his delivery backpack. But, seriously, what a masterpiece of video, i learned so much!

[@hikingwithfrank315]

Great footage Stewart.👍 do you find moving the drone easier without the joysticks attached.?

[@gekoldronevideos]

Same question here🇳🇱

[@DroneFilmGuide]

I do actually. Started doing it so that my solo active track shots stood more chance of success when I hid the controller in a backpack. Nudging the stick would ruin the move.

[@hikingwithfrank315]

@@DroneFilmGuide ahh makes sense Stewart, must try that out. Thanks for the reply

[@ZisimosZizos]

I tried once. It's easy.

[@hikingwithfrank315]

@@ZisimosZizos thanks, I’ll try it out at weekend 👍

[@TheAlexCruz]

I would LOVE to film in a location like that....soooooo much beautiful scenery!

[@kdub607]

That was a fun watch with great scenery. The shots are really good moves to use. Thanks for sharing the tips and the lovely Scottish area!

[@GingerT8]

Omg. I've followed you guys for years, what have you been taking? Loving the new energy you have injected into your videos. Thanks for all the videos, keep up the great work.

[@DroneFilmGuide]

Thanks so much for the kind words!

[@AadidevSooknananNXS]

These are soooo creative, that first one was especially clever! Edit: could you do a tutorial on the waypoint mode(s) in the event you're flying alone?

[@APD5007]

Some really good shot ideas, thank you and for the clear albeit fast paced instructions. What was the end result, how would you put all those shots together??

[@DroneFilmGuide]

Great question. This is really a library of shots so there's no attempt to tell a story as such. Always a good idea to try and create some kind of intrigue by opening with an establishing shot, then maybe a close up of walking feet, then introduce a person and keep going by trying to build some kind of flow. Even it's just a personal project or a travel film, you can still create a 'story' by not just showing everything in the first shot.

[@APD5007]

@@DroneFilmGuide walking feet close up post establishing shot then build a flow..thanks I like that idea. will use it next month on a scheduled shoot

[@SailingElBurro]

Thanks for the tips!

thank you for sharing us , this give a new lesson to learn. ❤

Excellent video as ever. I’ll be coming back to this one in the future as a reminder. My skills have definitely improved as a result of your many videos. 🙏

[@FUJILA]

Fantastic Fantastic scenery, sadly the last time i visited Scotland was before drones!!

[@Atsf1976]

This was an awesome video. It wasn't the usual, put the sticks this way. You put the sticks and showed the video to go with it. Thanks

[@roymarsh3114]

You didn't mention the most important thing... Alina's RED jacket.

[@FUJILA]

Definitely it add interest !!

[@DroneFilmGuide]

Not an accident!

[@Whatreally123]

Currently in the himalayas and I used so many of your tips. Mainly selecting a static point in the frame and using Spotlight mode. Thank you for all the tips.

[@DroneFilmGuide]

Ha, great idea!

[@bryanmulhall7978]

Love your channel. I'm a noob Neo pilot, and this video in particular has been brilliant. I have a ton of questions, but here's two- what lights (like you use towards the end of the vid) would you recommend for the neo, and what's your opinion in the third party accessories, like tailfins, landing gear etc? Would love to see a vid on simple nodding for the neo...

[@DroneFilmGuide]

Hey! I didn't understand the question about lights. If it's the shot of me talking towards the end then it does look like I have an artificial light on me but it's actually just natural light. Regarding accessories, we've never actually used any to be honest but that's not to say they couldn't be useful - it's just never come up.

[@TheSchwiddy]

Great video!! I‘ll need to train some of these moves. The parallax was amazing, could you do a tutorial video how to achieve this with a Mini 4 pro (or similar just with digital zoom)?

[@DroneFilmGuide]

Let's put that on the list! The process is just the same with the digital zoom though. Cheers!

[@MK-Creator]

Thanks for putting this together 😊👍🏼

[@DroneFilmGuide]

Appreciate the comment as always!

Entrambi bravi Stewart e Alina il vostro video mi piace tantissimo,avete spiegato benissimo molte funzionalità interessanti....top

[@sabarudinhashim6592]

Breathtaking footage!

[@DroneFilmGuide]

Thank you!!

[@timoryan4441]

Brilliant filming, excellent lessons. Think my wee mini 2 would manage some of those shots so long as it’s not blowing a hooley here in Manchester. Noted that all shots are able to be done on most drones with controllers AND you not using joysticks. Do you find it easier without? Keep doing what you both do… fab..

[@DroneFilmGuide]

Thanks for the comment! I find it easier to lock in moves without shake going through the sticks. Started doing it for solo active track when putting the controller in the bag though.

[@jim100flower]

Great video! Thanks!

[@lukepadfield80]

Fantastic Tutorial! Keep them coming! How do you get on using no sticks on the RC2? I never use them with the N series controllers but to me it just doesn’t feel right on the RC or RC2…

[@Azzurro650]

You are flying without controlsticks? Does that work better for you? Inspiring video. Thank you very much. 🙏

buona sera Stewart and Alina ho scoperto per caso il vostro canale siete unici sopratutto come preparate i vostri video . ho visto o mi sbaglio ma Stewart guida senza le manopole del drone e meglio ? beh devo provare , vi seguo con curiosita e sono nuovo in questo mondo grazie per i consigli saluti dalla Sicilia

[@Eti1968]

The difficult part will be to find a similar fantastic location where we are alowd to fly :_) Great Video, I do believe Alina had the hardest job though.

[@falko189]

I noticed you aren't using sticks but directly the controllers screws, any reasons for that? thanks and as always brilliant guides and edits

[@DroneFilmGuide]

Thank you! Started doing it so that my solo active track shots stood more chance of success when I hid the controller in a backpack. Nudging the stick would ruin the move. Now I'm just used to flying like that and TBH I think I do get more control.

[@AdrianoVisconti]

Many thanks !!

[@ChrisEdgarsFlyingCamera]

Hi Stewart & Alina! A really cracking video, superlatives fail me.... I shall be taking notes and practicing some of these. Thank You So Much!! BTW drones here are Mini 2, Mini 3Pro, Mavic 3 Pro and recently bought Neo and Avata 2

[@jasonhazelwood4536]

I’ve noticed your using the controller without the sticks inserted. Does that make the movements smoother?

Has anyone notice he flying with out the sticks on his controller

[@RVTIRED]

Well, I hope you bought Alina a nice dinner after all that!

[@DroneBenke-Hungary]

You don't use sticks on the controller? 😮 And the antennas are always tilted 90 degrees... Can you explain why? 🤔

[@DroneFilmGuide]

For the sticks, started doing it so that my solo active track shots stood more chance of success when I hid the controller in a backpack. Nudging the stick would ruin the move. Now I'm just used to flying like that and TBH I think I do get more control. For the antenna, the flat part is meant to be pointed at the drone for optimal signal strength. With O4 transmission on the likes of an Air 3, it's not something you need to give too much thought to though.

[@DroneBenke-Hungary]

@@DroneFilmGuide thank you for the explanation, and congrats on your videos, I like them a lot 😍😍😍👏👏👏

this really hard to replicated with avata and motion controller LOL

Interesting. Nice moves and all of this even without the sticks attached to RC. But 2 days of shooting - you're a lucky guy to have a girlfriend or wife like Alina with a lot of patience.
