My Frankenstein Anamorphic Drone.

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

So I have the Inspire 3 and it's nothing short of incredible..... this entire workflow does in fact carry over, can't wait to share with you the insane 8k 75fps anamorphic footage. I will be posting my workflow, footage and detailed review next month with the DJI embargo. www.bhphotovideo.com/c/buy/dji-inspire-3/ci/56181/BI/21158/KBID/20289

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

and yes its insanely expensive, but keep in mind this is the flag ship drone for DJI and pilots who get hired on film sets with this type of drone charge $2500-$4,000 PER DAY! So its wildly expensive and out of reach to most, but there are working professionals that are already forking over the money because of the insane upgrades offered. Cant wait to share with you all my thoughts on it. But for all of us other mortals, the i2 anamorphic for the w.

[@kataichanda]

Bro, I love your videos. Educational, entertaining and unique. ❤

[@DylanW-sm6up]

The carvera cnc machine looks like a good option for you as it is very multipurpose but might be a little out of budget. Also keep up the good work as I guarantee you have inspired many to create awesome stuff 👍

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

So I got connected with Carbide. I sent them my pitch and they marketing director happened to be a fan of my work, and greenlit a demo unit of the Nomad 3. Now the only thing left I need to sort is the Lathe part. I know nothing about lathes, but essentially in order to do the overhang of the lens mount, I will need to CNC, then attach to lathe and create the groove. Anyone have some recommendations on a lathe? I'm total newb here, not sure if I should try to get something new or look for an older one.

[@richard-sim]

@@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL I have a ton of experience with lathes - in January I wrapped up a full rebuild of one from 1988 and run lathe classes at my local hackspace (when I have time, hah...). For a lens mount you'd be able to get away with a pretty small lathe since it's just a small piece of aluminum with no particularly high precision requirements - but the bigger question is, do you want a tool that'll let only let you make that project, or one that'll let you tackle more difficult projects as your needs grow? Depending on where you're located, you may be able to find a well-priced large used lathe for not much more than a small new lathe. A good lathe will last a very, very long time if well maintained (or even if not!), so it's hard to go wrong with a used lathe for someone just starting out. Another option is to find a local makerspace/hackspace that has a lathe and see if there's someone to teach you to use it! Alternatively, if it's just for an overhang you can likely use a t-slot cutter in the CNC. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to discuss this stuff - I've lived it for many years!

Timing this video to release just as DJI released the Inspire 3 trailer was a moment of genius.

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

Well I've been sitting on the video for a while. Had to get some other things done and I just finished this week so I figured I would wait.

Awesome as always! It's rare to see a creator going this far to make magic happen. Thank you.

[@JonE5FPV]

Very interesting, we also use weights on our drone for racing, for some spec races that require a minimum weight to slow everyone down on the course. People have also used tungsten, lead, and the most popular for smaller drones was tire weights.

[@darrinfraser]

YES!!!!! Break it to make it better!!!! So glad you share the goodness you make, find and make up.... Thanks Josh!

Been loving these DJI-Related vids recently! Best youtuber out there

[@TheRealPafnucy]

Right when I was about to buy one. Seller just stepped away from the deal - I came back home and youtube was like "Hey! take a look at this one!". ;) I think I can now open go fund me because buying one in Poland is next to impossible. People are buying them and donating them to Ukraine where there are making special deliveries to Ru551an trenches. Just like the one I donated. BTW I love you and your videos.

[@jaketerveer445]

Dude.. Amazing timing. Just got myself an Inspire 1. I know, I know. Old tech. As a Part 107 pilot for a few years now, I'm experienced with Mavics, phantoms, and FPV drones, but never a big boy "cinema" rig. I'm now super excited to experiment with the interchangeable m4/3 mount on the X5R. Which is also great because I run a Panasonic setup, so I already have some lenses and newly purchased ones will be available to use with my main camera. Anyways, this was a great video to give me some ideas going forward! Thanks!

The night city shoots reminds me of The Dark Knight movie. So good!

[@InnocentStuart]

Maaaaaan, you are definitely born to create

[@EveryTongue]

It was such a victory when you got that thing fully balanced ❤

[@agustinsaavedra2752]

Thanx very much! that tungsten density conclusion is the way to go for counterweights, maybe for everything about filming (loved the dark comedy behind the toxic and radioactive materials). You are almost completing your new Rigs for Anamorphia. Hyper focal distances for manual focus lenses in a Drone is a great solution, until someday comes out a follow focus motor with LIDAR like in the Ronin 4D. If Inspire 3 is not that impressive, is because maybe DJI could had made this Follow focus system for it, and make a difference proportional to the ronin 4d release impact. Greetings

[@BoReynolds]

Man, I get sooooooo jacked when I see a new video from you. I just lost my FIFTH DJI drone into the Gulf of Mexico and because it was the Mavic 3 Classic, I actually cried real tears. ONE WEEK. Great video Yo! Bo

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

Damn sorry man. I've been there. I've crashed every drone I've ever owned! Just a matter of time! Bahah

[@BoReynolds]

@@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL In that case....I lied....the 3 Classic was my 11th! Not trying to up one but I didn't want you to think I can't fly for shit BUT it's always when I'm testing a new feature, in this case the new NIGHT mode. From now on just fly and film.

I admire people who are willing to throw a few thousand dollars worth of equipment in the air to see if it will fly. Great job. As for 3D printers... if they're smart, they'll send you one... otherwise, I look forward to the "OK guys, I couldn't get the 3D printer I wanted, so here's how you make it with carpet tape, some bubblegum, and an old Okidata printer I found..." video that is sure to come!

Love the idea of the putty, kinda gets around the pitfalls with machining tugnsten. I wonder how extreme you could get with lense size... Also, the best word for "fusioning" is "drafting," from back when machinists manufactured parts based on hand-drawn schematics, also called drafts.

[@WhySteve]

Almost turned into "I broke the Inspire 2" lol. I'm curious to see the results of the TTArtisan 50mm f/0.95 because I got one to do a review video and honestly in my opinion, the f/0.95 is not what I expected. It performs very much the same as the f/1.4 regarding light and depth except there's a lot more fringing as well as vignetting/blur around the edges unfortunately. I own the 35mm f/1.4 and honestly it performs more to my expectations than the 50mm f/0.95. Oh, by the way, the TTArtisan 35mm f/1.4 is literally the smallest lens I have ever used and it weighs only 180g, so I'd love to see that one take a spin on the Inspire 2.

[@mjodr]

I think the f/0.95 is more of a gimmick. I think they have to take too many compromises. I've never really understood the appeal honestly. I find on my f/1.8 and f/1.4 lenses I'm never wide open and many times I get great shots with the right DoF and bokeh at f/4!

[@joshuajaydan]

[@OkiemDrona]

[@sloop24]

Great video and information, watch the whole thing even tho I don't have that drone or plan on getting it lol. By the way I think it would be cool if you did a video showcasing one of the darkest night skies in North America. I was thinking you test out some of your widest aperture lenses while showing off how many stars you can see in real life. The place I'm talking about is Steven c foster state park in south Georgia. A couple hours from me and few more from you. Just thought I would throw that idea out there.

[@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL]

worth thinking about! let me ponder this

[@brianmckeever5280]

Fun to watch your process!

[@ArdyIRL]

As someone with an ultrawide monitor, im begging you to upload your anamorphic videos in true widescreen aspect ratios. KZbin supports widescreen natively! Then people like me can enjoy your content on our 21:9 displays :)

You can 3D print using Polycarbonate. Incredible strength and also heavier than PLA, which can work towards the balancing of the gimbal.

This is definitely a great video and very informative. You do some great drone work and have really great shots. When you fly in the city and overtop of cars do you have to submit your FAA waivers? I feel like some of the best shots are in the city or near risky areas. I have had trouble understanding the exact laws for flying overtop of roads and people. I was under the impression you always needed to secure an FAA waiver.
