I had the privilege of shooting some BTS (behind the scene) video of a drone light show at Denver International Airport a few weeks ago. I finally got permission to show this publicly last night.
The drones aren't DJI, although they do use Phantom 2 props and are based off of the old Flamewheel design.
This was all shot on a Mavic 2 Pro. Much longer than most of my videos, but it's hard to get a 12 minute light show down to 3 minutes or less.
KDEN ATC shut down Runway 25/7 for safety reasons during the show. The RPIC had to call them and let them know when we were done so they could open it back up. The cab told him they could see the show from the tower and said it was cool.
Always a good thing to impress ATC!
