Course Structure
You’ll initially explore the fundamentals of drone-based photography and filming. Slowly get to know different camera types, gimbal stabilisation, and compatible drones used by professionals. Learn about resolution, frame rates, dynamic range, and lens options that best fit your creative objectives.
We’ll delve deeper into camera settings, shutter speed, ISO, aperture, and learn when and how to use neutral density (ND) filters. Understand the principles of capturing crisp stills, fluid video, and the importance of color profiles (e.g., D-Log, HLG) for preserving detail and enabling post-production flexibility.
We help you master the art of framing compelling aerial shots. Study effective composition techniques such as leading lines, symmetry, and the rule of thirds. We’ll teach you to plan shot sequences that tell a story, guide the viewer’s eye, and evoke the desired emotional response, be it cinematic excellence or documentary realism.
We’ll help you develop smooth piloting skills to capture steady, cinematic footage. Practice controlled yaw movements, gradual altitude changes, and orbit maneuvers. Explore intelligent flight modes (e.g., Point of Interest, Spotlight, ActiveTrack) to streamline your workflow, save time, and focus on creativity rather than manual controls.
Once you’ve captured your aerial content, we’ll teach you basic editing techniques to bring your vision to life. Together, we’ll explore colour balance, enhance contrast, and fine-tune exposure in editing software. Experiment with transitions, sound design, and basic colour grading to ensure your final output meets professional standards.
