How do drones take pictures?

Open space: If you are a beginner, you must remember to avoid water or dense vegetation and find an open space as much as possible, because you don't need good skills and aerobatics when you start practicing.

Daylighting problem: When shooting in the air, we must pay attention to the lighting problem.

Save batteries for a rainy day: At present, the flight time of most UAVs on the market is 20-30 minutes. For example, Karma, which GoPro will be listed soon, is fully charged to support 20 minutes of aerial photography; The flight time is 28 minutes when fully charged. So be sure to make a good shooting plan in advance, save the battery and return when the battery allows.

Obey the rules: this is very important. You have to confirm the aerial photography regulations of the drone in advance and make sure that the flight area we choose does not violate the regulations. It is necessary to fully consider the flight area of the drone, the height limit of aerial photography and the qualification of the aerial photography controller of the drone.

Set the recording parameters: Before flying, set the recording parameters in advance according to your project or work requirements. Otherwise it's too late to fly ~

Try different shooting angles: We can see the perfect aerial photos taken by others and capture the trajectory, but before forming our own shooting style, we must practice a lot and sum up our experiences and lessons.

Dynamic shooting with drones: such as sports advertisements, you know, we can adjust the height and speed of drones at will (of course, within the performance range of drones), so that drones can move to the required positions at high speed and shoot pictures from any angle on the scene. Well, drones are perfect for this!

Hover shooting: I can finally fly. Do I have to fly around? No, remember, even if drones can fly everywhere, you should consider the needs of your own works or stories. If your story needs a relatively static and broad perspective or space, you can hover the drone to shoot.

Draw inspiration from other movies: When we first started aerial photography, we might not know how to grasp the angle or take the best shots. At this time, you can learn from some good movies or works. At present, there are many aerial photographs for us to learn (of course, there are some good ones taken by helicopters instead of drones), so we should look at many aerial photographs and record the shooting angle.
