Have you ever tried to follow a car, boat or bike, only to find that keeping them in frame was really difficult, if not impossible?  Or maybe your camera motions were very quick and jerky, not at all smooth?  Subject tracking with your drone can be one of the more difficult skills to master.  But it is also one of the most important aspects of any great drone pilot, especially those desiring to get paid (and well) for their skills.

This week we take a “deep dive” into the skill and technique of subject tracking with your drone and camera.  There are some key flight maneuvers that can dramatically help you get that smooth, seamless footage, even in the most difficult scenarios.

As we often say, smooth cinematic footage is one of THE, if not the, biggest differentiating factors between people who fly toys and those who fly tools.  Continue to progress your piloting and videography skills by joining us in this informative webinar.

You will learn the following:

1. Specific flight maneuvers that are key to subject tracking.
2. Camera settings and filters for high speed filming.
3. Camera paths and movements that will smooth out your footage.
4. Hand motions and combos for dynamic cinematic shots (the “money” shots).
5. Understanding your orientation in relation to the subject.
6. Things you can do to start practicing these maneuvers.

Why You Should Watch:

If you have ever tried tracking moving objects you know that it can be a very challenging skill to master, especially when you are trying to do it while capturing smooth, cinematic quality footage.  If you’ve struggled with this, want to take your skill to the next level, or just want to learn so you can start, then this webinar has something for everyone in it.  Check it out and you’ll be able to take some practical steps to get better footage while tracking moving subjects.

As the the popularity in drones continues to rise, so does the idea of using your drone for industrial purposes.  Although you can do a lot of things with just your Phantom and GoPro (see recent webinars we’ve done), doing some of the more complex industrial applications requires a larger rig.  This is due to numerous things like payload, application, speed and weather, and even those factors are dependent on the industrial project itself.  Is it transportation line inspections?  Agriculture?  Leak detection?  Security?  Bottom line…you’ve got to ensure you’ve got the right equipment for the right application.  Otherwise, you have little chance of being taken serious.

You can go out and pay tens of thousands of dollars for such a rig.  Or you can try to build it yourself.  But if you do want to build it yourself, you’ve also got to know what you’re doing so you don’t end up spending more than you should have because you are dealing with such a steep learning curve.  This is a big part of our goal at Drone U…lowering your learning curve, saving you money, time and frustration.

Therefore, we have a very exciting a special webinar this week.  We are not only going to dive into the top 10 things you must consider when building an industrial grade drone, but we’re going to have an “in-house” guest who actually does it for a living.  He is an expert when it comes to building drones, and also has a thriving industrial drone inspection business.  If you are considering building your own drone and/or getting into industrial applications with it, then you absolutely must join us for this live webinar.

By the way, as a reminder, only Drone U members have access to the replays.  Membership is very affordable for this, starting at only $27 per month.  So if you’re not a member be sure and don’t miss this, or you can consider joining hereby clicking here.

You will learn the following:

1. The top 10 things you must consider when building your drone.
2. What are the different things I would need in a drone for different industrial applications?
3. Where are some of the best places to get parts?
4. What equipment/tools do I need to build my own drone?
5. Is there a general cost range I should be expecting when building my own drone?
6. Why build my own drone when I can just go buy one?

Why You Should Watch:
You may have never thought about building your own drone.  You may not even know why on earth you would, and what would you use it for if you did.  Well on this webinar we went into a fair amount of detail regarding what you need to know to start thinking about building a drone.  We even talked about what you could/would use an industrial size drone for, and why you should consider building it yourself instead of spending tens of thousands of dollars on one.  We were especially blessed to have two of the top drone builders around right now.  So be sure and check this out, and you should definitely watch for our soon to be released mastery course on building your own drone.
