So you’ve made your approach, answered all the questions, fielded any concerns and even explained the legal aspects of aerial videography to a Realtor who’s interested in hiring you to film one of their listings. Now you’ve got the signed contract. Way to go! Now what? What should you do to prepare the house? When’s the best time(s) to shoot the house? What else don’t you know…that you don’t know…that you need to know? Well, in this week’s webinar we’ll virtually tell you all you need to know and do to get that house filmed like a seasoned pro.

So you missed the webinar yesterday? Would you like to know the most important steps to prepare real estate projects for optimal video? What about the optimal settings for your camera? What should you ensure that the homeowner or Realtor do before you fly the home? We go into detail regarding all these things and much, much more. Camera tips and tricks, turning on very specific lights both on and in the house, and special things you should do to the landscaping to greatly improve your real estate videos, this replay is one you’ll want to be sure and go through (maybe several times). Once you do, you’ll have an immediate advantage over your competition as you will stand out because of the little things that take your videos from OK to pro quality.

With so many jumping on the UAV “bandwagon”, the number of those looking to turn their passion into profit is only going to steadily increase. Therefore, if you’re going to stand out then you better master the two most important skills:
#1. Expert piloting with cinematic movement.
#2. Getting pro quality videos and photos with any equipment.
Odds are that you’re led to believe you must fly a larger rig in order to capture exceptional, cinemagraphic footage. We’re here to tell you that’s total garbage, and you can capture better footage than most “pilots” flying those rigs if you just know the most important settings and movements. The equipment you fly does not make you a good pilot and videographer. It’s the skills and knowledge you’ve compiled and consistently refined that will make or break you.
So join us for this value-packed webinar as we show you how to go from “schmo” to pro with your footage, all by using a Phantom and GoPro. You’ll be amazed at how much you can do, and how great it can look IF you know what you’re doing (and you will after this amazing hour).
Additionally, we’re going to show you what forms and paperwork you’ll need to not only lower your insurance costs, but also ensure you stay covered and aren’t dropped suddenly over some insurance loophole (yes, we’re speaking from experience here). We’ve learned from a recent conversation with one of the largest UAS insurers out there that many commercial operators won’t be renewed this year, despite the fact that they have no claims. Why? Will it be you? What will you do if it is? Find out all the details in this week’s webinar.

If you fly with a Phantom and film with a GoPro then this is THE video for you. We went through so many things with an active group of participants. Often on webinars like this, the questions asked and answered alone are worth watching. On this one we went through things mentioned above, but really dove deep into GoPro settings to use based on time of day and weather at the time. We talked about GoPro updates, as well as the value and importance of filming at 2.7K. Watch this and you will come out of it with a greater understanding of just how much you can do, and at professional level quality, with your Phantom and GoPro.

Our question today comes from Jacob in Phoenix. He is asking what are the different types of insurance coverages out there for UAVs/drones? This is a very important question as you need to be sure you’re insured if you’re getting paid to fly (especially). There are various “types” of insurance, so we go into all the details about this on this episode. Thanks for your question, Jacob!

In this weeks webinar we are going to go into detail about everything you need to know in order to obtain UAS insurance. More so, we’re going to talk about very important aspects like how do you insure you’re actually covered for accidents (you’d think this would be a no brainer)? What are all the commercial requirements an insurer will be looking for (if you don’t have them, your rate sky rockets)? What other things are going to directly and severely impact your rates? Who’s the easiest insurer to work with?
Additionally, we’re going to show you what forms and paperwork you’ll need to not only lower your insurance costs, but also ensure you stay covered and aren’t dropped suddenly over some insurance loophole (yes, we’re speaking from experience here).

Today, in celebration of our “silver anniversary” (kind of), we are breaking a bit from the normal question format and instead addressing a recent article from Fortune. The article is entitled “FAA Issues Blanket Approval For Commercial Drone Use Below 200 Feet.” So what’s the catch? Is this really an accurate title and “blanket” statement? What are the realities surrounding a 333 exemption from the FAA? We go through the realities of what the FAA did, and how it affects (or not) so many commercial operators.
