I made the video below on dec 31st. I have a Mavic3 pro and I used the Night configuration. My impressionis that some scenes were too bright. What configuration should I use for fireworks?

Aditional comments. I think I made a too warm white balance.
I Used 5.2k 60 FPS, and exported to 4k.
This video was made in Santos - Brazil.

Very nice video. I think the night mode did it very well. There are indeed a few scenes with lights that are too bright, like some fireworks scenes or the scene with the cruise ship. But I don't find this disturbing and cannot be avoided. You can adjust these scenes slightly in post-processing if necessary.

And I don't find the white balance distracting or too warm.

Flying over crowds is not only dangerous, but illegal according to the Brazilian Civil Aviation Authority (ANAC)

Your observations are corret. But I must explain some points. You may see that the first scene was early in the night and there was people only close to the show. I used 3x zoom and was out from the crowd.
The other scenes I was over the avenue or on the sea. I am aware about flying regulations. I have the Anac registration, and received authorization from the air traffic control to fly in that night.

Nice video!
Were you flying from on board the cruise ship or from the shore?

Fantastic video! Really enjoyed that - thx for sharing.
Wouldn’t complain about any of the capture or post processing especially when you consider the massive differences between light and dark - well done.
