All the good little boys and girls (literally meaning all of us video geeks), are beginning to assemble our wish lists just in time for the holidays. Like most of us, the most popular new toy on the list this year is a drone. We have all seen the sample videos online and thought to ourselves, “damn, I gotta get me one of those!” Video drones are definitely the greatest new trend in video production. No more renting helicopters, or really big cranes. Today, the drones are affordable, effective, and offer us a very unique way to get amazing shots.
Like most people, I did a bit of research to find out there are actually many drone options out there, and of course buyer beware. Educate yourself before buying a drone to make sure you are getting the right product for the right production.
Here is a nice site comparing the most popular, affordable drones on the market.
