Haha! I did anticipate some blowback since I'm not 107 licensed yet, and i can see how my questions could be seen as naive. I am fairly new to drone piloting, but have researched enough to question the legality around certain flights now. I just wanted to get insight from more experienced...

Thanks! Would love to post pics later, but yea... doesnt look like I can/should.. lol ?‍♂️

I appreciate the constructive feedback! Guessing there is no difference between videos or pictures in this case. Both of which would be awesome to have of this event tonight that could end up in my digital 'photo albums' that I could show to my kid, and maybe grandkids. Have a good 4th of...

Well yes and no. I post media to my personal page that shares with what I'm doing in my life. that is fishing trips, music events that I'm playing in, photography, family events, etc.. I do post about my band and upcoming shows. Going to call this post answered at this point since any...

Well, just to add to the context of all this we are playing from 8-midnight. The first hour long set is well before sunset and civil twilight. That is where I would looking to shoot.

You hit that 'grey area' I was talking about right on the head. I cant control who shares the pics or videos (to their friends/followers who dont already know about my band) posted on my personal social media pages, where other people may or may not be motivated to check out my band who would...

Or even just taking shots during set break of the stage in the foreground and lake + audience in their boats in the background

We have a few songs where I'm not playing anything for 3-5 minutes (bass player). So I am thinking I could do an orbit quickshot during that time.

Are we being compensated for drone footage? No Are we being compensated to play music? Yes Do I plan on using said footage to promote my band? No, but the FAA being the authority on that I dont really know where this flight lands on their spectrum. Thus, I'm asking for others perspectives too!

I'm not being compensated for anything I'm doing with the drone tonight. I'm being compensated for playing music. Simply trying to capture a cool experience in my musical life that I wish to share later. I just dont know if the FAA would indirectly consider that sharing of the footage as...

Thanks for the link. I think my confusion is coming from the 'are you flying for business, enterprise, etc.., or for recreational (enjoyment)' question. I not getting paid to fly my drone. I'm getting paid for the performance. I would be flying for (enjoyment) recreation during the...

I am looking into getting my part 107 in the near future. Until then I have questions about footage I'll be taking tonight. I am a musician in a band that is playing a gig tonight at a private residence. It is one of a few (out of 50 or so) booked shows that didnt cancel due to covid. This...

Alright, here is my first attempt at a manual pano. This is crazy. I can tell the horizon isnt perfectly straight, and I havent gone down the photoshop rabbit hole enough to try and fix it it. Regardless... coolest pic I have ever taken in my life! Cant thank you enough for pointing me in...

Haha! I taek piktur reel guud! ?

Wow thanks! I had a feeling the process was like what you've described. I appreciate the time you took to explain it! Nice pics too at the referenced google searches!
