John Williams's contribution to cinema is one of a kind.

[@AverytheCubanAmerican]

The kid screaming "BABY YODA" at 4:13...little do they know about the power of ACTUAL Yoda. What a display this is. And John Williams' music in the background is the chef's kiss. Music is quite the powerful thing. Music touches us emotionally where words alone can't. Music is the great uniter. An incredible force. Something that people who differ on everything and anything else can have in common

[@jackmiddleton2080]

I love stuff like this because I feel like art always falls into the same mediums over and over, but when you see something original like this it is magical.

[@AlphaBoost]

It definitely had that kind of vibe. Thanks for watching!

I shoot fireworks professionally and have a feeling I'm looking at the beginning of the end of my profession. Veryy cool.

[@donanders2110]

I was thinking the same thing and not in the business, these things can be used over and over.

[@Blaze_1961]

@@donanders2110 Same here. I'd add no fire concerns either.

[@ChadwickTheChad]

That's the new normal. Everything replaced by something half as good.

[@thegreatcanadianlumberjack5307]

​@@ChadwickTheChad a typical or average fireworks show can cost around $1000 a minute if you got a 10 minute show that's around $10,000 and not to mention they are dangerous and take a long time to set up. Drones can be cheaper or more expensive but they are way safer, can be set up quickly and can be reused

[@SupremeLeaderKimJong-un]

This drone light show is unironically the best thing to happen at the Oakland Coliseum. The crowd's reactions say it all. The transition of the baseball becoming the Death Star and then exploding when the baseball hits it is perfection. The force may not be strong with the Athletics, but it'll always be strong with the drones.

I have a feeling we aren't too far from Disney replacing their theme park fireworks with shows like this one. Thank you for sharing this awesome video!

[@AlphaBoost]

Thank you for watching!

[@bryanrobinson9770]

This is great! But I bet in 5 years time we will look back at this show and say how primitive it looked. I can see them really lighting up the sky w a faster pace and more dynamic.

[@Lipbuzz]

Need to speed that shit up by about 50 times

[@mokokoco4720]

Maybe more for the nights that fireworks can’t be done. It was amazing seeing it live and I enjoyed the show so much. I know Disney will do it on a larger scale since their budget for fireworks is crazy

[@mushieslushie]

They did have a temporary show in Orlando for Christmas a few years ago

[@ronaldwilliams9331]

Absolutely mind blowing especially at the beginning the way the Star wars logo just floated and descended into air on a natural high

[@AlphaBoost]

[@neoux]

So awesome. Imagine when companies start doing advertising like this. We're living in Bladerunner times.

[@babyjesus2025]

This is awesome but i hope it isnt used for junk advertising in the future. Im glad McDonald's haven't put there golden arches on the moon yet like i heard they wanted to.

[@katherinepoltoratzky2058]

Yep. That orange sky the Bay Area had just like Bladerunner. It was truly insane.

[@MANCAVE-xz1bp]

[@Timsonicboom88]

That’s incredible. I can’t believe how much work they programmed the drones.

[@AlphaBoost]

Sure does look like a lot of work, doesn't it?? Thanks for watching!

[@thetruth1140]

It requires a lot of programming, initially aka the skeleton of the code a space is mapped out for the drones like 50m by 50m, as well as, the starting location of the drones, then the rest is for the artist to take over and can create unlimited images with regards to the drones speed, hardware, etc. Maintaining the actual drones so they fly properly is probably harder.

[@UC3Music]

@@thetruth1140 you are perfectly accurate

[@vonsopas]

@@thetruth1140 Exactly, I think there should be already a software available that interfaces the user's input (the artists designing the transitions) and the actual programming of the droids. All in all, looks amazing and is a technology wonder !
