Houston Texas Drone Cinematic
มุมมอง 3.1K10 หลายเดือนก่อน
I filmed in Houston over several days (two separate trips) in early February 2024. I began downtown from multiple locations (beginning in the morning, then hit San Jacinto Monument, Kemah). I returned to the Minute Maid Park area and downtown (drone & driving) late afternoon, then filmed some distant downtown shots (Sunset) from the Cypress area. I could have spent many more days, but - that wi...
Austin in December Drone Cinematic (Night)
มุมมอง 67811 หลายเดือนก่อน
This is the 2nd of three projects I filmed between Christmas and New Years 2023 downtown from multiple locations, from 4:45pm through 8pm. While I am always absolutely honored that (anyone) would watch my little productions - I do this purely because “I love to create/express”. It also helps to calm work/life stress and it fuels me to keep learning progressing (until I win the Lotto and can beg...

I filmed the week between Christmas and New Years 2023 downtown from multiple locations, creating (3) short films at different periods of time. The (2) remaining projects are in the can to be released as soon as practical. Though I have been a photographer all my life, I have only been flying drones since last December - but I have wanted to film downtown (in Autumn/Winter) since I first began....
Hansen Bay (St. John USVI) 4K Cinematography
มุมมอง 224ปีที่แล้ว
We visited the following beaches on our recent trip to St. John; Trunk Bay, Cinnamon Bay, Maho Bay, Hansen Bay, Hawksnest Bay. Every beach was stunning on the island paradise, and if we had to pick our two favorites (because we could not bring ourselves to pick only one) it would have to be Maho Bay and (a surprise) Hansen Bay. Maho for its shear unspoiled nature/tranquility and Hansen for havi...

We only had three full days in St. John and (2) days of travel but we made the most of our time and savored every minute. It had rained much of the week prior to our arrival, and the week after our departure - but we were fortunate that we experienced perfectly gorgeous weather during our stay. We arrived with no planned itinerary, but we did have a bucket list - as follows; Trunk Bay, Cinnamon...

Featuring the “Tower of the Americas” at 750ft in the Hemisfair district. I had a little “encounter” at the end (a security guard for a concert occurring adjacent to my landing spot, but in all fairness, he was pleasant and respectful (as I was) and he just asked that I not to fly over the concert (which of course I knew was illegal). This was my first Cityscape at night with the Mavic 3P and I...

Filming Locations: 2900-Bridge (Boat Town) 1431-Bridge (Wakepoint) and 2900-Island. Due to the 2018 flood (which garnered National News coverage after it washed out the 2900 Bridge) the flood waters created a new Island (seen in the video) which locals have now named: “2900 Island” and it has become a gathering spot every weekend/holiday for dozens of boats and scores of people!

This video is a collection from the past several months of mostly Day Trip travel, exploring the beauty of Central Texas - including State Parks, Cities and Lakes. As much as possible, it was accomplished via the road less-traveled (and is all about “the journey”) The goal is to expand my search for beautiful destinations - as time/work allow. Enjoy!

Aerial tour of my hometown, on July 3rd 2023 and a huge bucket list item checked-off my Drone “to-do” list. We moved to Austin (from the DFW area) when I was 4yrs old (in 1964). To say the least, it has changed drastically. Through that change, both good (and bad) I have always loved the town and though we now live in the Hill Country, we get back fairly often. P.S. I created my own new word - ...

Did they purposely mow down every tree in site? Looks like midland Tx
Well done!!!
Thank you so much!
Hey there- love your footage of Downtown Austin, TX. Would you mind if I used short clips of the footage for an event recap that we did in Austin?
I have no issue with you using some clips as long as it is not to be used for inflammatory political, religious or social issues. Thank you.
@@davidmatney5033 None of the above! Thanks!
David, What Drone are you flying in this? St. John is one of my favorite places period. Going back end of July. This time I'm bringing my Air 3. Had my Mavic 2 Zoom and Mini 3 Pro make the trip previously. Keep up the great work!
Todd, So sorry for the delayed response, and thank you! I used my Mini 3 Pro for the trip (even though I had recently acquired the Mavic 3 Pro. The Mini is just too freakin awesome/convenient especially for our short 4-day trip. (Using my MindShift Backlight 26L backpack) allowed me to pack all of the following as Carry-on including batteries, chargers, cables, card readers, etc, etc.... Mini3P, DJI Osmo Pocket 3, Nikon D750 w/lens: 24-70mm & 15-30mm, Sony ZV-1, GoPro Hero-10, HP-24" Laptop, Selfie-stick, and I tethered my Apple Airpods Max case. It was fairly heavy, but I had "all my stuff" at my fingertips....It was awesome! I'd love to go back again with about 7-10 days and take the Mavic 3 Pro. I could have gotten much better footage since I could have shot many scenes from a distance with the 70mm and 166mm cameras (with a much more cinematic look/feel). Still, It was just awesome to be there and to be doing what I love (even if I didn't have all my tools). I felt very fortunate! I'll watch for you results!
I love this lake. My friend and his wife have a house there. I have a drone video posted from this lake too. Nice job.
Thank you very much, and nice job on your LBJ video as well! My wife and I moved out here (from Austin) 8yrs ago and it was culture-shock at first. Now we couldn't imagine living anywhere else!
Anyone know how long it would take to walk through downtown Houston please?
If you want to just walk from east to west or north to south down one street, maybe 20-30 min. If you want to explore every street, hours and hours lol.
I've always wondered what the rest of the bar looked like. Thanks!
That is exactly why I wanted to film it.... So people could see "the entire picture".... Thanks for watching!
Beautiful footage! Did he ask for your license/authorization? I'm planning on picking up the Air 3 and Part 107 License here in SA as well.
Thank you! No sir, he did not ask for anything and (so far) the few encounters I have had with Security/Law-Enforcement have been good ones.
Excellent video! You sure made the best use of the time spent here. I live & fly in Houston all the time and it's always interesting to see someone else's perspective of it.

Thank you so much! I really had limited time due to other commitments, but as I stated - it gives me an opportunity to do more in the future. I also agree with you regarding "individual perspective", as I watch EVERYONE'S work to see how I might constantly improve. Thanks again and have a great weekend!
really nice footage! we're doing a video on the best motorcycle roads in Texas. Could we use a few seconds of this footage and give you a credit link?
Hi @davidmatney5033. I'm in Austin as well. Love these drone videos! Editing is spot on as well. How would you feel about me embedding this video on my website if I provide a link back to you? I know the youtube license already allows this using their native embed functionality, but I always like to ask anyway.
Thank you! I have no issue with you using the video (as long as it is not attached to anything controversial). It is intended (strictly) to show people the beauty of our City. No need to link....
boring
Thank you so much for your comment, even negative.
This is very beautiful ! I visited Austin last June and loved the city ! I plan to visit Austin again soon !
Stunningly beautiful! Artfully captured & edited. New supporter here; I'm hoping to visit Austin in the near future. Just down the road in Houston, but time, commitments & health always seem to make for bad timing.
Thank you so much! I put a great amount of time/energy (and my soul) into my little productions, so your words mean a great deal! I understand about the lack of time, as it took me over a year for everything to fall in-place to do this filming. (We live 50-miles west of Austin in the Hill Country). We have a trip planned to the Houston area (early Feb) and I will try to film around downtown, though I cannot get near as close due to controlled airspace.........I'll get what I can get. Thank you again!
Have sat with my wife on that railing and watched the sunset 😍
So have I! We waited 8-months to get to that spot and we couldn't believe it - once we finally made it there! A truly great evening and experience!
Very beautiful! We will be back someday!
Absolutely - we have said the same thing! (And we feel it is a place you can never adequately describe. You have to experience it to understand).
😩 "Promo SM"
Absolutely breathtaking! 😮😮😮
Thank you so much dude!!!
They ought to restore the old windmill so it really lives up to the name.
That would be awesome! Maybe they might eventually do so if the business continues to grow, etc....
Black and hispanic population is fast and lots of rappers are moving in!
This is how they will draw good talent to play at Texas. Great city and so much punani.
Nice footage. What drone are you flying for these. We are making another trip down in July an I had my Mavic 2 zoom and Mini 3 Pro in action in St. John so far. Taking my Air 3 next.
Thank you! I have the Mavic 3 Pro and Mini 3 Pro, and took the Mini for this trip. It's just too convenient for air travel, etc. Plus I had my Nikon D850 with additional lens, GoPro, DJI Osmo pocket 3, etc, etc! Always some new tech-toy "I have to have" for my creative nature! :)
Another amazing Video. Thank you David!
Peaceful!!
I'm so happy you enjoyed it, Thank you!

Okay now this is a great video! Very cool footage. I can’t believe how much it’s grown 😯

Great mini-tour, great music and great photography!
Thank you So much! It was an amazing day/experience!
Absolutely beautiful!! The end though 😬
Thank you So Much!!! I had to show the end, as I was about to get scolded a bit (and I was totally in-compliance, etc).
Correct me if I'm wrong but I read somewhere that Austin has another 30-40 towers in the pipeline.
Yes, that is what I read a couple of weeks ago - and could not believe it! Not sure where they will put them, but it should be cool!
great flight - water reflects the city perfectly Subscribed
Thank you so much!!
austin is still building an impressive amount
It really is! Thank you so much for watching!

Thank you very much!
Great video of Austin and love the background music! Nice job David!
Thanks so much!
Amazing Job David!
Thank you so much Sir!
Dude, this was insane! I have no idea how that drone responds so well to the low light with high intensity explosions while keeping focus, but wow…. The flying was excellent, but that image quality is just…. INSANE!! Blown away. No pun intended
Thank you so much Dude! My Drone (DJI Mini 3 Pro) has an Aperture of f/1.7 and focus range beginning at 1m, therefore a Hella depth-of field. I also used "Manual" exposure settings to offset the massive lighting changes. It handled the explosions decently but the negative was - it was incredibly dark maneuvering in an area with minimal city lighting.
Holy crap! What a stunning view of the Austin skyline! This edit was so beautiful. I cannot believe the colors you got off the buildings with the morning sun. Crazy how placid the lake was that morning as well. The reflecting pond effect was incredible. I really like the artsy closeups of the 360 bridge as well as the skyline and golf course view from 360. Now, that stadium section… 😮😮😮 I don’t think I’ve ever seen that perspective! Absolutely killed it dude!!!
Thank you so much! I'm working to improve with each opportunity....
Beautiful! 😍
Thank you! 😊
Beautiful
Thank you!
I was near Burleson St and B4UFLY indicated green - Clear for takeoff - No active advisories - maintain situational awareness? Hopefully I didn't mess-up! :)
