Best Zozobra ever! Best Zozobra footage ever! Zozobra is back on track! Thanks to all for rejuvenating this time honored event!

This was really awesome. Thanks for sharing it. I hadn't gone to Zozobra in probably 10 years. This was the first time I went with my husband, who probably hadn't seen it in about as long. We had a blast and this video captures it so perfectly.

This is an awesome video! The best Zozobra footage ever! iQue viva!

[@patrickreid5507]

Luke, this footage is spectacular! There has never been anything like it. It is truly unique. I would not be surprised if this video made Zozobra nationally recognized. Good to see you are putting the quad to good use and glad it was not hit by a firework.

So cool we were wondering what those flying lights were!

[@LukeFitch]

Thanks dude! Everyone, please share to sites like reddit and I guarantee we can get this awesome event some well-deserved attention. I'm also glad it wasn't taken out by a firework - there were a couple very close calls!

[@LukeFitch]

This was shot with a GoPro Hero3 camera (Black edition), mounted to a DJI Phantom quadcopter to get the aerial perspectives.

[@LukeFitch]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@nyaphiadarling]

this is so cool! I just started learning about it at school

[@auroradrones2037]

Very cool!

AWESOMENESS!!!!!!!

[@Jerrico71]

Wow! Here I was totally deflated by the obvious loss of fiesta/party spirit on Fri & Sat since the burning was moved back in 1997 but this production you made is brilliant! Even though I have issues with the death metal growling monster voice now used instead of the gloomy haunting moaning groaning style of the awesome past, your production is magnificence that'll hopefully shed onto the organizers & officials to truly bring back the spirit so it reflects “FIESTA” on Fridays and Saturdays too!

[@LukeFitch]

Thanks! Yes, I installed both gimbals myself; each has their quirks but it's not too tricky... You can find me on Facebook, or here via Google+, so definitely send me a message with your info - we'd love to have some extra help on upcoming productions!

[@superkidred3101]

Love it😘💚

[@BrandonWells1]

Luke that is a great video man. I really like your Railroad video as well. I assume you installed the gimbal yourself? I had been looking at the DJI Phantom, Are you on Twitter or Facebook? If you ever need additional angles, equipment etc... I have a couple of Hero 3's DSLR equipment etc... Keep up the great work.

[@clairemartinez6055]

I love the music used! what is the song called?

[@shrimpfarmer]

Impressive

[@TenzLekden]

Hey, what camera did you use and how did you get those amazing shots?

[@jherrerayt]

I think it was a drone
