I shot a PR video for one of my farming friend, you may have seen it posted. I also made a video for my 2 year old grandson. He loves tractors, state the color and he can tell you the manufacturer of the machine. His video is all the clips I captured for the PR video in the sequence they were recorded. I few three batteries in my Mavic Air 2 and was surprised I only recorded about 10 minutes of video. Recordings were at 1080P so I could use the zoom function. The 2X & 3X are OK but the 4X seems a little fuzzy for me.
Chasing a moving object is excellent practice for drone video. Keeping the object in frame while tracking it. Orbiting a moving object is a challenge, especially when using 2X zoom. You can see in the video I had a bit of trouble with YAW oscillation. I also discovered a new shot in the opening sequence, right off the deck which I really like. Safety concerns kept me from shooting the gap between the tractor and seed wagon, maybe next time. Shooting lots of angles and different height can help making a mundane object look interesting.
Hope this gives you some ideas on how you can develop your drone video skills.
