Wild Creative DRONE Handheld Shots Are GENIUS! 🔸 DJI Mini 3 / DJI Mini 2 / Mavic 3 / Air2s

Music…I constantly get asked where I get my music from. I found Epidemic Sound to be the best. There’s a musician named ARTHUR BRUNSON, All my favorite songs are by him!

Hello FLYING CAMERA CREW!
TIPS FOR DRONE HANDHELD SHOTS: LESS THAN 1 MINUTE CLIPS:
1). Keep the drone turned OFF until you are ready to start recording.
2). Once the short clip is done recording, turn the drone off.

If you do these 2 things, your drone will not even get warm when recording clips less than 1 minute.
Don’t believe me? Actually test it!

Today’s drone tutorial is intended to help us flying cinematographers see our creative tool of choice just a little bit differently. I use my DJI Mini 3 Pro in dozens of creative ways to demonstrate there’s
different ways to utilize this piece technology.
Even if you have the DJI Mini 2 or larger drones like the DJI Mavic 3 or Air2S, you can still use those cameras more like traditional land cameras. They all have an amazing gimbal & a wireless monitor which are enormously useful for solo creators to get b-roll shots & document your scenes.

Some people LOVE their large gimbals and setting them up and carrying them around.
I personally do not. So I found using my drone more like an action camera is much faster & easier.
AND, as I mention in the episode, the footage from your drone b-roll shots will now perfectly match your arial footage! ….because its the same camera. This continuity in image quality is massively important and saves a huge amount of time in color grading.
I wasted so much time trying to color match footage from my mirrorless camera, my GoPro & my DJI drones. It never matches, because it’s entirely different sensors & lenses.
My suggestion here solves that problem.
Let me know your thoughts, questions, experiences!

TIPS FOR DRONE HANDHELD SHOTS: LESS THAN 1 MINUTE CLIPS:
1). Keep the drone turned OFF until you are ready to start recording.
2). Don’t forget to tap-to-focus on the remote controller! It’s a different focus system than our mirrorless cameras.
3). Once the short clip is done recording, turn the drone
4). Keep the drone OFF when not

If you do these 4 things, your drone will not even get warm when recording clips less than 1 minute.

Great new approach to using a DJI drone! However, it would be great, if you could show how you mounted the drone to your monopod and what equipment you used to accomplish a sturdy and safe connection.
I'm looking forward to all your upcoming videos!

Everytime he tilts the head backward with that smile on his face and clenched fists I think he's going to say "You're tearing me apart, Lisa !"

This is so simple yet I never thought to do it. Nice work man

[poggiali]

I am certain that the subscribers will come across once they see your wizardry
I get so much from one single tutorial of yours that I can't wait to see the next
THANK YOU - you deserve success and I hope you get it

[TheLonewolf]

Ted, my name is Jim. I just wanted to take a second to thank you for your contributions to our community! I had begun to grow tired of my drone. Your creations have inspired me to go further, and have helped me to fall in love with my hobby again! Have some advice on sharing my art?

[SimplyScotlandPhotography]

It would have been good to see how you actually mounted the drone to the tripod. What precautions if any to help with the overheating. If the drones not moving most certainly with the mini 3Pro it's going to get hot as it need the airflow.

[WIWN_Radio]

Epic video!!! I didn't realize all the versatility of the camera on the drone. I was stuck on just using the camera in flight... You're an igneous Ted! Keep up the excellent work. You're an inspiration!

[unkaumanguy]

I highly recommend the dji pocket 2 for shots like these. It's like taking the camera out of your drone and putting it on a small base. It's wirelessly controlled although the range is limited but does allow for panning and tilt.

[nacnud]

The top channel on you tube for doing something worthwhile with a drone. Keep inspiring us with your ideas please

[robsterlikesRonPaul]

So happy for you man getting the views with this particular video.

This is what your channel SHOULD be getting!

Absolute legend! 🙌

[iamsailingau]

Hey Ted, great video, thanks. How are you recording sound while you film with drone?

[johnmonaghan]

I have to tell you, I look forward to seeing each one of your videos. Your tips and ideas are always very eye opening. I don't have a Mini 2 or 3. I have the original Mavic Mini. I also fly a P4P, Mavic 3 classic and Mavic air2. All of your tips help even when flying the bigger drones. Looking forward to your next video.

[peterclemmet]

You are easily the most creative droney out there, very talented and I’m impressed

[jameskelly]

Excellent video creative as always.
I would have liked a closer look at how you attached the drone to both the tripod, and the selfie stick though.
Looks like my little mini 3 has just become even more versatile, thanks for demonstrating this great idea.
Hope your subscribe numbers continue to grow, your input and entertaining style deserves a wider audience.

[DannyThompson]

Some real thinking outside the box going on here. I absolutely love it!
