That first shot was awesome!! Looked like a shot from a movie!

"Brilliant". When you can FEEL the shots and get lost in a film like these, you know the Director and his team are remarkable. GREAT stuff.

This was incredible!! I loved it!!

One of a kind, as usual. Congrats !

Hi there from England . Absolutely loved this. Epic shots that did justice to the landscape . i only have a Mavic but managed to fly and film the mountains in Wales recently so i know it's hard work getting up to take these shots and you carried the Inspire ! Keep up the good work . Atb.Austin.

Phenomenal as usual. I think it would be neat and instructive to have a video going over how you got to where you are now, both as a pilot and a filmmaker. I know I would really like that.

Wow! Nice cinematic shots that also blend with the score! Hope i can fly an inspire in the future. Now, im just enjoying my phantom 4 and did some unnatural shots. Those shots I did is easy to achieve if I use an inspire.

@ManAndDrone

Thanks buddy! Nah that's what I thought too, that the shots would be much easier to get jumping from Phantom to Inspire. Completely different fish.. The inspire is difficult because there's more to think about and input, It's always down to the workman to get the best out of his tools.

Amazing footage and brilliant edit-- I'am heading South next year. What was involved in getting a Dept Of Conservation concession to fly a drone over public land and in a National Park?

@ManAndDrone

Thanks, there are no National Parks flown in this short film. Always seek permission from Land owners and local councils / authorities if unsure. Most operation you see is shielded to the best of my knowledge. Use the maps on AirShare NZ website.

Hi Paul - Thanks. I used ones from Epidemic Sound and it's called "Olympus 1"

Epic video! How much preplanning for every scene do you do and how much is just by feel? Opening scene for example you were clearly trying for a certain shot, did that take multiple planned takes or was it just a one time try?

@ManAndDrone

7 жыл бұрын

Hi Chip, Thanks! There's a fair mixture of planning and feel. The opening shot indeed took a while to master and I still haven't found the best gimbal settings yet.. the location changed a lot but I accepted that it was as good as I could muster for now. I've done the hikes before so knew what to expect, but this time with a big and bulky drone and sometimes icy conditions makes for constant alertness. Filming on mountains is also challenging unless you're used to it. Regarding takes - I always have the vision in my head and I'll try to take several shots and just pick the best one. I'll do a behind the scenes for my remaining hikes here to educate people more. Thanks for watching!

Awesome video! Want to ask did you face any difficulty to fly drone around New Zealand? I'm going NZ this year with my P4 but I noticed the strict rule about flying drone in NZ. Did you apply for permit?

@ManAndDrone

7 жыл бұрын

Hi Jason, yes and no. Obviously National Parks are a big no no, but that hasn't stopped the Mavic brigade as I've witnessed on my travels (tut tut!) You technically need permission to fly anywhere even on private land. Check the Airspace NZ website they have up-to-date no fly zones on there and methods for applying for permission.

Nice one ! Question, how do you get this nice flare ? by put apperture around f9 / f11 maybe ?

Cheers! Yes generally you would look to shoot a higher number, you might sacrifice a bit of sharpness but if the end delivery is web then it really wont matter too much.

Thank you Rodrigo, yes you can. Look for "Remarkables" and drive to the ski field. The other one is called 'Ben Lomond' but requires a bit more courage 😅

Awesome! Do you do all the flying on your own or do you use an app with waypoints for some shots?

@ManAndDrone

7 жыл бұрын

On my own there's no waypoints or many smart modes yet for the Inspire 2 which is very annoying! The only good thing is Tripod mode and Spotlight Pro that are available.. You can spot 'Awa Drone' in the video using a controller too but he's flying a p4p.

When you trek these mountains do you stay overnight? Looking up the 27lb drone case alone makes me shudder of the thought of all that extra weight on top of any possible camping gear!

In Canada and Norway I did with smaller drone.. Not in New Zealand with the big Inspire 2.. too much gear for 1 person.

Xtra proud to be a kiwi after viewing this masterpiece..

Great stuff. How far we have come in this type of technology. I reckon if they had shot Leonardo DiCaprio's movie the Revenant, for example, using such a Drone, GoPros and DSLR's, no average movie goer would notice the difference from that to the actual Cinematic gear they use. It would be very interesting to compare.

JUST...........WOW That is all.

But how do you get those ultra smooth tilts and movements? Especially when you turn the drone and fly in one direction

@ManAndDrone

Spotlight Pro mode will enable these movements.
