Spotlight with DJI Drones - With a Static Target
Show More Show Less View Video Transcript
0:00
When a building or a landmark is
0:02
selected, the camera will maintain the
0:04
target in the same position on the frame
0:06
regardless of the aircraft movement. In
0:09
other words, the camera disconnected
0:11
from the flight direction.
0:13
Using the two sticks of the remote
0:15
controller, the aircraft can move
0:16
laterally, closer or further away,
0:19
ascend, and descend.
0:24
It is an excellent tool for real estate
0:27
videography to show the surroundings of
0:29
a property in a cinematic way.
0:40
A classic move is the one that was named
0:42
course lo in previous models. The
0:45
aircraft maintain the facade of this
0:47
monastery in the center of the frame
0:50
while flying diagonally to reveal Mount
0:52
Eton in the background with a nice
0:54
parallax effect.
0:59
Let's see a couple of variation of this
1:00
move.
1:03
Here the camera is locked on this
1:05
lighthouse to reveal the wid this lovely
1:08
bay in it city.
1:14
Some moves can be performed using either
1:16
spotlight or point of interest. As you
1:19
can see in the other two examples,
1:22
different users might prefer one method
1:24
or the other.
1:28
Other moves are based mostly on
1:30
elevation changes.
1:33
Here the aircraft descends laterally to
1:35
show this village perched on the top of
1:37
the hill.
1:41
Then it flies forward while ascending.
1:44
always maintaining the target in the
1:46
middle of the frame.
1:52
The crane move is a classic in
1:54
videography, difficult to perform
1:56
manually and very expensive to
1:58
accomplish without a drone. The aircraft
2:01
starts at the top of the target with the
2:02
camera pointing down and then moves
2:04
backward while descending, maintaining
2:07
the target in the center of the frame
2:09
and revealing the background.
2:13
It is also possible to do the opposite
2:15
move.
2:30
A more complex move combining two famous
2:32
Hollywood moves, the crankshot and the
2:35
screwdriver.
2:38
The drone starts above the target at a
2:40
90° angle with a camera pointing down.
2:43
It progressively moves diagonally to the
2:46
left and away from the target while
2:48
descending.
2:57
Like the previous one, this complex move
2:59
can be accomplished either with
3:01
spotlight or with point of interest
3:04
using the normal castle as the target.
