Do you have a PDF of your shot library?

[@TimothyWesdock]

@@JevenDovey that would be amazing to have on hand. I just got a job shooting scenic shots for weddings with my drone and this video is everything I could have asked for.

[@TimothyWesdock]

@@JevenDovey I have created a PDF of your drone moves if you'd be interested in having it

[@HanfHaddi]

@@TimothyWesdock could you share your PDF? I would be really interested! 🔥

[@LorencCala]

This is a 6 months bootcamp, but more than that whoever edited the section 3 of the video has mastered the calmness! Thank you!

[@mewintle]

One of the best drone instruction videos on all of KZbin. Great pacing (fast!), super-clear and great examples to illustrate every point. 10 out of 10 production value (great sound is invisible, but so important). I keep going back to watch this video again and again. A *lot* of work must have been put into organizing this and compiling so many shots to illustrate each and every point. And the results are clearly great. I can't even imagine how long editing this video must have taken. Thank you for all the hard work!

[@4khongkong58]

Jeven you’re a class act by imparting so much drone knowledge and helping me to up my gain from beginner in 2021 to intermediate. Abundant thanks!

[@MKN2024]

I've been watching YT for almost 10yrs already and this is by far 1 of the best tutorials that i have ever seen in my life! THANKS!!!

[@MVMTV4Videos]

Thanks Jeven, Your Time and Dedication to the Channel is truly Appreciated, Especially for a guy like me who has only been flying for a few Months. I love your educational videos, they are very edifying.

[@axelr9075]

I got a DJI Mavic 3 drone not too long ago. These videos are far better than DJI's own tutorial videos and have saved me hours of time learning how to use and film with the drone. Excellent job !!!

[@O-Dini]

Once again Jeven, you’ve given us excellent information to become good/great at flying drones but better yet, getting excellent footage also!!! Thanks!!!! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

[@Ulturism]

Honestly amazing. Just picked up my DJI Mini 2, and this gives me so much inspiration for getting out there and trying it out. You are knowledgeable, entertaining, well edited. Going to binge all of your videos!

[@reecethegreatvlogs7301]

I also just got a mini 2 for Christmas and I've been doing photography for a couple of years now so this definetly helps me use my drone to its fullest advantage.

[@ondamove9951]

For beginners like me, your basic tutorial is a BIG HELP, really appreciate this.

[@Tales.of.Irshad]

This was the video i was looking for the last 1 week right after I bought new dji mini 3. I was confused with the lots of other videos with improper ideas and instruction but this gave me exact idea on my needs. Thank you for the gift

[@fonsos13]

THANK YOU, EXACTLY what I needed and time practice. I truly appreciate Your simplicity in explaining how to do moves. Clear and right to the point.

[@yurkouki]

My life will never be the same. I have no idea how I lived without this content. Thanks so much !!!

[@aqqaludavidsen]

Thank you for another great tutorial. One thing to keep in mind, is that in this tutorial Jeven is using ‘mode 2’ control mode. If you are using another mode just listen to which direction(s) he is refering to.

[@santocreative]

As a newbie’s drone flyer that I find your video instructions easy to follow and clear. Thanks for sharing your thoughtful videos for communities, Jeven! 😍👍❤

[@emmanuelsam7311]

i had my controller hooked up to a sim on my phone.....watching your video on a pc and playing classicals in the background.....practiced every single move till i could do it a bit comfortably......great help this is!!!!!!!!

[@ardnfast]

Thanks for uploading JD. Orbits are my favourite drone move. Throw in a little 2 x zoom to really get some background movement. Pure gold when done well.

[@RonaldBrown59]

Great tutorial Jeven. Thanks for showing how to perform all these moves on the sticks. Anyone can learn a lot from this video. Thanks for sharing.

[@zharovrussia]

I am a beginner and these movement advices are super valuable! Thank you Jeven! Please keep on with your videos

[@seanguliker6009]

I really like how you, in a very detailed and informative way, describe everything. I really enjoy your videos because they are very understandable

[@mekolines8781]

Just got into the drone hobby with the urge to do cinematic shots. Your videos is exactly what i was looking for. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge

[@DreamlandUSA]

Excellent tutorial so far I have been through!! You nailed it .. I implicitly started doing these moves without much understanding of LUT .. but I will keep watching this video again and again to perfect my move Thanks

[@altorres987]

I always have loved your content Thanks for everything you do. I'm definitely going to practice on some of the more advanced moves.

[@DiscoveringGermany]

Thanks! I just got a DJI Mini 2 SE, a little restrictive and older but was the only one within the limit of my Budget at the moment. Going to start using these tips for my next flight.

[@SoNowWhat]

Really useful tutorial - I will keep coming back to this as I learn my drone controls.

[@blaspayri]

the first youtube video with a theory and a rationale for filming with meaningful criteria. Brilliant synthesis and analysis of drone moves!

[@bomatravels]

Quite useful 👌 thanks 🙏🏻

[@ChristiaanRoest79]

Thanks buddy! Very useful. You are one of my favorite youtubers. Hands down. I made a printscreen of all drone movements in your video with the controller stick direction and printed them. Will take them with me on the drone location so i can experiment with some extra moves.

[@thewestcoastflyer]

Thanks Jeven, this is game changing content for new drone pilots trying to create cinematic moves

[@im.p.j]

Great stuff, like always Jeven 👏 I'll use this video a lot as my cheat sheet when going out to practice 🙌

[@ambassadorsofthesea]

Jevon, these videos take a long time to put together and a lot of creativity, but are extremely useful. Thank you for producing some of the best instructional videos on KZbin.

[@szbert]

Really helpful overview of what our drones are capable of, and I appreciate stressing that we need to tell a story.

[@rdetoni]

Jeven, I really, really want to say you THANKS for this. I’m buying a drone this week. I’m starting my life as a drone pilot and content creator after my 40y haha.. Your video help me a lot and I learned so much things and now I’m ready do test all of this features. One hour content, unbelievable.. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

@@travelpassionate1 well, after almost 2 years, today I can say that I'm working as a filmmaker. 2023 I decided to work deeply as a filmmaker and it's going great, working a lot, learning a lot, and most important, now I can believe in myselfe and my potencial. It's a beggening, and I'm very happy about this. I'm 42 now haha ✌

I just started today, I’m turning 25 tomorrow and I decided to chase my dreams on cinematic videography.

[@wimvancraen9173]

Thank you for sharing this! I'm a beginner of flying drones and I follow your instructions in the Dji Vtirual Flight to practice. Now it is more clear what you have explained in the video

[@alwayschasing]

I really enjoyed learning to this video. I loved the stick moves instructions along with the video, I did the moves with you. I learned alot! Thanks!

[@eszterdomina]

Brilliant, thank you so much!❤🎉

[@MikeFox1]

Jeven, this is such a wonderful video. It shows that you put so much thought into analyzing the different shots. Thanks!

[@JimMakosCom]

This makes me fly my drone right now and it's past midnight. Awesome work and info, very well presented!

[@palomexa]

Great video! I think I was already doing some of these shots but you broke it down and now I understand what I’m doing AND what do to better. Keep up the great work! 👍

[@postmodernaddiction3468]

Thank you so much for all your content. It’s helped me on my videography journey. After watching your videos for a few months I bought the DJI Mini 2 and Nikon Z6ii. I appreciate the time and quality that you put into your videos, very professional and a great resource for beginners like myself. 💪🙌🤘

[@kevinbradshaw9209]

Thanks for helping me see what I've been trying to practice. Practice, Practice Practice.

With 795 miles flown with my DJI mm2 it's time to up my game! For this, I thank you!

[@compulsoryfun]

Thanks for the comprehensive list, am just the beginning of my journey.

[@londonabbai311]

This will take my drone skills to next level for sure....

[@scottlee4664]

This is the DRONE bible everyone should look and learn from it. I have to watch it over and over again then practice ! Nowadays lots of us just want to get the newest drone instead learn how to fly manually. Thank you for this video

[@andycensus]

Great video. On some drones, there is a possibility of turning off the motors with both joysticks down and to the right or left - just be careful you don't try that in flight or it can be a very expensive lesson.

[@SharonStreger]

I was thinking the same thing...is it possible to turn that feature off completely??

[@norahstuff8327]

Man, thank you so much for all of your videos. Your instruction and knowledge are second to none. Appreciate you.

Second view I wanna learn everyday to take my travel videos to the next level 💪💪✌✌✌ as a newbie 🇵🇭🇵🇭

I hope you learned

I am a newbie to this drone game as well. Also, It will have been 23 years since I’ve been home in the Philippines, and want to make my 3 month visit a memorable one with great videos. I cant wait to get things go, and really cant wait to go back home.

[@wanderlustoceans8205]

OMG i cant wait to start doing amazing shots i just passed my part 107 and im excited but a little bit nervous with the moves there is so many! I hope i can do good with experience thank you so much Jeven!!

[@alexeypolevoybass]

I'm so glad I found this. Everybody is just bragging about which drone is “better” and how cheap you can start out for, but nobody talks about actual filming techniques.

[@1031Six]

THANK YOU! Thank u so much for the high quality n detailed info but also for making a grown up STRAIGHT TO THE POINT video without all the goofy comedy skits like a lot of other drone help/tutorial vids

[@TheAzn18]

So great man. Been playing around with my new DJI Mavic Air 2S and was getting stuck with the same old shots. This really helped and I’m super appreciative of it.

[@footprintscairns275]

Amazing content! Thank you-I'm excited to try them all!

[@cetrick_yeanay]

Going to go practice! Thank you

[@kdaadventures8616]

Thank you Jeven. Very useful information. I have been trying different moves every time I fly. However, I was not aware of the moves you have shared.

[@hooelse]

Best guide. Thanks for your sharing

[@hinemnsprojects9202]

That was amazing, I’ll have to watch it a few more times to get all the moves down.

[@enesskaras]

Thank you man . Perfect video.

Dude, appreciate you and your content so so much. Thank you for this amazing info and continued incredible work. 🙏 You're a legend.

I'm a beginner, your material is what I need, thanks 🙏🏻

[@rapreactionaries5249]

dude this channel is so crazy thank you so much for all this content. i've learned an enormous amount watching your videos. i just bought a mavic air 2 as my first drone and feel pretty good about taking it out for the first time in a few days after all the info from your videos and getting the settings dialed in etc.

[@ArdavanKalhor]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience…

[@Majtravels1]

Wow this is extremely helpful and thorough! Thank you!

[@andrewvickers4487]

Confidence-inspiring, many thanks Jeven. I found your comments on the cinematic effect of some of those moves particularly interesting - if you haven't done so already it would be great to examine some cases in more detail, as to which moves were matched with a given story and why.

[@dataguy101]

Best video, thanks a lot. As a new drone pilot, always afraid of hitting my drone somewhere, this video is super helpful.

[@authenticarkansas]

This is an amazing amount of content all in one video. I don’t even have a drone yet and watched the whole thing. 😅

Your videos are remarkable. The best instructional video I’ve ever watched on any topic! I watched your review on the DJI mini 2. The drone was delivered today. And now I’m back on your channel again! I think I’m going to end up becoming an expert with the help of your videos alone. I’m hooked! Thank you!!

[@ffffffelipe]

This was great! I recently got a killer drone (the Air 2s) as my first drone but I've found myself using a lot the same movements and I'm not a fan of the automated shots, so this video was just what I needed. Thank you very much!

[@vg6761]

Air 2s is not a beginner's drone!! Stay safe out there 😅

[@ecurbj]

I just ordered mine today. Can't wait

[@kevinwells4986]

I've been saving this to watch again (and again)... This really is a great tutorial.

[@thomashardy9994]

Great instruction on how to get nice looking footage. Shows that we need to very “intentional” in our flying.

[@cfagil]

Thank you for your great videos on drone videography. I am a photographer who have been shooting still pictures but with many years'experience of flying remote control helicopters. Just bought my first drone: DJI Mini 2. It is definitely much easier than flying a RC helicopter. I am amused how stable a drone is. Your drone moves gave me a lot to practice on.

[@will_seven1853]

thank you for the knowledge I'm glad you have provided useful knowledge

[@Infarlock]

Great video, it's very important to notice that **NEVER EVER DURING FLIGHT** put the left stick right and down, and at the same time the right stick left and down, this will basically turn off the motors and the drone will crash, this is the same way you arm the motors when the drone is on the land. As a drone pilot for 3 years I learned a thing from the video that's for sure!

[@msotalbo948]

Thank you Jeven for this amazing tutorial. I’m a drone pilot newbie.
