My favorite video so far! 1 week flying, 2 days editing, 100% manual flight. All criticism welcome!

I would like to know if you guys are seeing artifacts in the water like I am.

Thanks for watching!

I like the clouds rolling in on them selves at the end....Hyperlapse??

Good job, nice place to live. Didn’t see any artifacts but only watched it in a small window.

edit: just watched it full screen and didn’t notice any obvious artifacts.

Nice flying there dude, you're way ahead of me on the sticks. You've inspired me to get out and practise.

Fantastic video : 90% of this is really clean , I did see some codec issues on the water but not the subject. Most likely to long a render on youtube as most of the artifacts were at the end.

I just realized I've been shooting this in h.265 (4k60) but editing in h.264 and exporting in h.264... could that have anything to do with it?

Thanks btw!

I am not sure about water artifacts but what I am sure about is that I really enjoyed this video a lot. You incorporated a lot of my goals- hyperlapse cloud storms, hyperlapse sunset, great following of boat scenes, , and circling movements of the lighthouse, - the whole gamut of skills needed to create this great video. I think speeding up of the figure-of-eight maneuvers of the jet boat was a bit too much-maybe slow down a bit. They look like little jitterbugs on the water. Very nice work.

You did a great job with your control of the bird
and the timing of each segment of the video.
Not too short and not too long.
Well done.

I appreciate the heads up.

I noticed the same thing, but had to keep it that way because of the music syncing. I really appreciate the kind words @Dale D.

You movements were like butter. Very smooth. In many drone videos I watch I get bored around the 2 minute mark - not in your video! You went over 3 minutes and kept my attention to whole time. Excellent work!

Great Job!!!! I keep seeing awesome edited videos here, most with music to them. I am fairly new to flying the M1P (had a few Skyvipers to learn on) and enjoy taking videos but have no clue how to edit them. what program do y'all use?

I use the Adobe suite.

Premiere Pro for video, maybe sometimes After Effects for some cool stuff, but rarely.
LightRoom for photos, sometimes Photoshop like above.

I use Youtube Studio and ReverbNation for music.

Have a great day! Appreciate the kind words!

nicely done. I did not see any artifacts -

Nice work. Mostly great shots. I don't think you needed to speed up some of those shots, they would have been fine in at regular speed. You did a good job following the jet ski guy who was doing the figure-8 moves but it might have been smoother if you'd have shot him on Active Track. Over all great. Try the Warp Stabilizer effect (under Distort in the Effects panel) on your hyperlapse shots to see if that smooths them out. Keep posting...great to watch.

...and thank you for looking!

Stay safe!

Some of them were sped up/down to sync the transition with the music. I appreciate the constructive criticism!

Have a great day! Stay safe!
