How do I improve the colors on my drone videos?

Today’s episode is all about improving the color in your aerial photographs and videos.  After all, if you’re operating a drone business, you’ll want to make sure that your clients are getting a product that they love.  One way to do this is by optimizing the colors in your drone videos.

In order to help you create the best drone videos, we explain how colors are captured on video.  We explain how camera sensors work and how to utilize the best camera settings to optimize your colors.  We also discuss using filters to get a lush color profile in your drone videos.  Thanks to Cory in San Antonio for the question!  Fly safe! 

Don’t forget that Drone U Landing Pads are now available!
