Location
Check out the location and see if those ideas can actually
become a reality. Filming a commercial using a drone can be tricky because
factors such as wind speed and time of day can affect where to angle the drone.
Equipment
A quick agile drone is best to cover footage from a lower
level. Larger drones are certainly
acceptable as well and shoot wonderfully when above for tracking shots.
Consider the format
If the video is going to be uploaded on Instagram, Facebook
or other social media sites, consider using a drone that is good enough to get
the job done. Fortunately for our clients, we always shoot in 4K.
Post-production
Once production is finished, the videos have to be the
edited. Make sure to color correct the footage to match each other and add
music if that is required. Editing slow-motion footage and smooth transitions
are something worth considering.
