Content and Overview
This course covers basics from selecting your drone, editing software and aerial camera. It has some guidance on initial flying skills and exercises for producing good aerial productions.
The course then goes beyond the basics and introduces, with extensive aerial footage to illustrate the points, a unique framework to guide all your flying and filming missions. This focusses on the extraordinary outcomes you should be aiming for in your aerial imagery and the flying you should be doing to get those outcomes.
You are then taught how to plan your flying and filming missions using this framework. You are taken through a range of unique in-course and online tools & resources to aid you in this planning. You will learn through a real example to show you how to apply the framework and tools to plan a successful flight.

What is this course NOT for? Though the course touches on some things to look into from a legal and safety perspective the course is not designed to be a guide on your local drone laws or how to fly & film safely. These are areas that you must know already or that you must go and master before considering implementing any of the techniques in the course. Also – the course is not hardware specific and is not designed to teach you about how to set up any of your own drone hardware or specific handling skills for that hardware.

Wow really can’t say enough about this course. It’s very thorough and I know it’s going to help me out a lot in future shoots. Some of the drone info is a little dated but that doesn’t take away from the principals that are being taught. Really great course!!!

Neen, de cursus bevatte oude en mindere kwaliteitsvolle beelden dan de hedendaagse technologie.
John Haas –
Though I have been editing Video for a very long time, this Course has excelled in educating me on my latest adventure, Drone Videography and Photography. Terrific and Easy to understand. Money well worth spent. Thank you.
Mark Young –
Excellent
Ayelet Kutner –
The course is very outdated. Some core concepts are still valid but most things would be done differently today. The examples are very poor quality with lots of erratic movements. The course itself needs better editing with some sections repeating the exact same text twice.
Overall, I can easily find better material in YouTube.
Luis Alberto Banegas –
Long videos. Not optimized for mobile.
Alfredo –
The basic concept is good, but in July of 2021, it is a bit out outdated and in reality the quality of the video is inferior to what can be achieved with current technology.
Tawheed Ismail –
May need to be updated based on recent drones and also software for non Mac users. Basic principles are great though and instructor has lots of knowledge!
Sanjay Pandey –
just started, able to understand
