HOW DRONES ARE HELPING MOVIE MAKERS
2

• Unmanned aerial vehicles have been used more and
  more commonly as filmmaking tools over the past
  decade predominantly due to their lower cost of
  operation than a full sized helicopter and their
  reliability. Before drones were invented, even
  the simplest of aerial photography wasnt an
  option for most filmmakers on lower budgets,
  since helicopters were, as you can imagine, out
  of many indie filmmakerss grasps.
• Now, drones can be purchased inexpensively,
  depending on your needs and budget, and can open
  a whole new world of aerial imagery to wow and
  amaze movie watchers the world over.

• Flying camera computers
• Drones were often perceived as being exactly
  that, flying camera computers, and in truth, they
  were, and are, precisely that. Modern drones have
  the ability and technology to detect faces, fly
  in peoples wake, fly and land on their own and
  perform the types of cinematic tricks that
  filmmakers could only dream of.
• Not only is technology advancing at an
  exponential rate, but the cost of drones is
  dropping year by year, making them even more
  affordable for the public and low-budget movie
  makers to tell their stories in new and exciting
  ways.

• Learning how to pilot a drone
• While anyone can buy a drone and fly it, it takes
  thousands of hours of practice, skill
  development, and collaboration in order to pull
  off cinema-level shots that wow their audience.
  Modern movie makers are taking lessons and
  courses on how to fly them safely and take full
  advantage of their technology. While this is
  achievable by most enthusiasts, its always a
  safer bet to hire a professional who dedicates
  their time and energy into making everything run
  smoothly and professionally.

• Movies filmed using drone footage
• Stunning, jaw dropping aerial footage is now so
  much more easily accessible, that movies are
  becoming more and more visually effective as each
  year passes through the use of drones. The
  footage gained can be far more diverse and give
  low budget films, the impression of being
  Hollywood blockbusters without a small fortune
  having to be spent. This is great news for
  filmmakers who are just starting out or who are
  on tight budgets and gives them equal opportunity
  when it comes to box office ratings or award
  nominations.

• Drones are helping movie makers create big budget
  style films at a minimal cost, and their
  popularity and ease of use has been spotted by
  other industries, too. Realtors are using drones
  to capture dramatic and detailed footage of land
  and property, wildlife organisations are using
  drones to monitor wildlife and track poachers,
  while some companies are test running them for
  package delivery. Their potential is huge, and
  their popularity is unquestionable, and when
  youre next watching a movie that contains
  stunning, panoramic or aerial images remember to
  give thanks to the humble, innocuous looking
  drone!
