Car show...perhaps my most cinematic yet

[Lapeer20m]

I was asked to shoot a car show...

I put together a few complex shots, including “Dolly zoom” like you can get with the new mavic II.

Looks very nice! I'm curious near the beginning when flying backwards past the fountain, did you plan the path to just skirt it?

i'm not a very good drone video creator, but i tried to utilize most of my "tricks" when filming this one.

when trying to fly near an object at high speed, i like to get so that my eyeballs are on the same level plane as the drone if possible....then fly it in the opposite direction slowly to make sure it fits......then, in this case, pull back hard on the stick and let the magic happen. This sort of flying is much easier if you can do it from a perspective that you can essentially watch the drone as if you were at the range looking down the barrel of your gun towards the target. This allows you to clearly see if anything is between you and the aircraft to help ensure it's safety.
