Drone Cinematography Masterclass 2.0 From Drone Owner To Aerial Cinematographer

8 Hours Of Aerial Cinema Tuition From YouTube's Leading Educator

Learn to THINK, FLY, FILM and EDIT like a professional aerial filmmaker.

I think we can all agree that drones can produce amazing footage that until a few years ago, was strictly the preserve of Hollywood. Shots we couldn't have imagined being possible are now accessible to all of us and as such, we must seize that opportunity with both hands, filmmakers and drone pilots alike. However, as cinema, TV, YouTube and social media flood our senses with aerial imagery, audiences have quickly become more discerning in differentiating between "just a drone shot" and stunning aerial cinematography. Building on our years of filmmaking experience going back long before drones appeared on the scene, in this 8 hour masterclass we give you a 5 step framework for creating stunning aerial cinematography. Whether you are new to this world or a seasoned pilot, in this masterclass we build your skills as a pilot and a filmmaker, calling upon our years of experience as drone cinematographers and years and years and years of experience as filmmakers. Containing hundreds of examples of not only our work from around the Scottish Highlands, Greece, Iceland and Spain, in the aerial film studies section of this course we look at dozens of Hollywood examples and relate the incredible work they produce to our own, identifying the repeatable strategies you can employ to emulate cinema-grade work with your drone. As the owners of a commercial production company ourselves, we have created not only an informative but visually stunning course that is both beautiful and inspiring in equal measure.

Whether you want to make money with your drone or just take your hobby to the next level, you NEED to know this stuff to differentiate yourself from the pack. Buying a drone is one thing...awesome, you have taken the first step and are a drone owner, welcome to the club! But you need to be so much more if you want to stand out. FIRSTLY, you need a degree of pilot skill and in the first section of this masterclass we teach everything you need in this respect. We take you from drone owner to drone pilot. SECONDLY however, and more importantly, you need to SEE the world like a filmmaker. In our experience, 99% of drone owners don't make it past the drone pilot stage. With this 8 hour masterclass, we will take you from drone pilot to drone cinematographer. We teach you to THINK like a filmmaker. By the end of this course, you will have the experience and guidance you need to stand on your own two feet as a cinematographer. Every drone shoot is different so a "painting by numbers" approach to filmmaking just doesn't cut it. Sure, at the end of the course we give you a shot list to practise as that is undoubtedly a great learning tool. However, it needs to be combined with an understanding of filmmaking principles if you really want to be noticed in the crowd.

We teach you how to tell a story by creating SUSPENSE in your work. You'll learn how to layer your compositions to add DEPTH and interest to your imagery, drawing your audience's eye through the frame. We show you how to add MOTION to a shot to enhance the story you are trying to tell rather than just adding it because you can. We teach you everything you need to know about LIGHT and how that influences what it is you are trying to achieve on the day. Furthermore, we analyse COMPOSITION and how we can use basic principles to enhance the story you are telling with your work.

Whether you are filming for your own self-initiated projects, as a freelance drone operator, as part of a production company, directing another drone operator, or for any other reason, you NEED to know this stuff if you want to rise to the top of an ever expanding group of drone pilots.

If drones fly themselves why do I need to pay for a course?

It is true that a drone "flies itself" in the loosest possible sense but does the drone do any of these things for you?

Analyse the light to pick the best direction of flight or time of day for flying.

Identify unwanted objects in the shot and position itself accordingly to exclude them from the frame.

Tell you what the most cinematic composition is for the subject you are trying to film.

Identify amazing locations for your drone shoots before you even leave the house.

Build your scene by identifying ways of creating depth in your composition.

Pick the appropriate camera motion that turns a basic shot into a story-telling masterpiece.

Employ the story-telling device of creating suspense to engage your audience and wow your clients.

In this masterclass, we give you building blocks and a framework whereby all of the above becomes instinctive and second-nature. Also, if you are engaged in any non-drone film work then you will find our course of great value also as much of what we discuss is not drone-specific, rather an analysis of filmmaking concepts that date back to the early days of cinema.
