At first I thought wow a video of Newport South Wales UK, and after 2 seconds of the video I realised it wasn't. They are 2 VERY different places 😆 great video though 👍
Rhode Islander here. I agree Newport by far is the best. I tell out of town friends to always visit during late-spring and summer. And always make Newport your no.1 destination.
And that my friends is why I live in Newport, RI. Beautifully made video that may even bring out a tear or two to those of us who call this beautiful city "home". Frankly, the entire State of Rhode Island is absolutely breathtaking!!!
Brilliant film - thanks for your time, skills and efforts. We visited Newport and Jamestown in September from the UK - what a beautiful area, your film provides lots of wonderful memories.
This is one of our favorite videos. We watch it a couple times a week. The music is even a perfect choice for these gorgeous images. Watching this video soothes my soul.
I have lived in newport 32 years this city is steep in history there are so many interesting places to visit beautiful beaches great restaurants shopping areas the list goes on and on
Just stunning. I've watched this 20 times. The music is amazing. The scene where he goes from circling around the baseball field and fades into the sailboat is amazing. I live 1 hour from Newport. As soon as weather cracks I'll be boosted boarding around getting some footage on my phantom 4!
I couldn't agree more, I watched this over and over again. I have been blessed to do a lot of real estate in this area and this video highlights just how special Newport is.
I will be moving back in a couple of years....been in Santa Cruz, CA (another amazing place) for 16 years. This video is SO well done....I'm getting excited to move back.
My family and I are relocating to Newport in just under a month. I've never been to RI but, watching this video has me even more pumped to get their. Thanks for sharing! It was awesome!
Matt & Holly.... Your work is absolutely the best of the best ! This video is breathtaking ...Your best. I've been following you since your Hartford CT stop and each time I am amazed . Thank you for all that you do.
Sailing down to Newport during the summer on Lazybones. Hanging on a mooring for a week at Ida Lewis. Walking downtown. The sights, the smells, the people. There is no substitute.
Just beautiful, I haven't been to Newport, R.I. since Spring time, '91, I just remember how beautiful it is there and stayed at a sweet B&B, and saw a few of the Mansion tours and it snowed a little and I loved it all, visited a good friend in Massachusetts and then he took me to see Newport for a few days, I'll never forget that amazing place, I loved M.A. too, all of New England was wonderful! I hope to go back, this time with the real love of my life (not the guy I visited)! Lol 😉😁
0:30 I remember falling on sharp rocks and getting a giant gash on my knee here, my dad told me "Don't run". what did i do? i ran. had to go to the little visitor's center to get bandages
You have managed to capture this area, the likes of which I've never seen! We just purchased a 4K television, this was one of the first videos that we viewed, amazing and stunning images of Rhody! This inspired me to get my drone back in the sky!!!
Thank you. I think this was one of the first videos I watched on our 4K TV when we got it. We bought the TV in fall 2016, so even though I had been making 4K videos for two years by that point, I hadn't yet watched them in full 4K resolution, so after getting the TV I went back and watched all of them. It was fun! :-)
Breathtaking video! This is the town where I went to school and where I live. Videos like this inspire me to pursue my dream career in filmmaking and advertising! Nicely done.
You should! I started doing it because one person told me "if you're going to do it, you should do it now." That was almost nine years ago, and while it was slow-going at first, I'm happy about where it has brought us and the opportunities it has opened up.
Thanks. I've got a timelapse video that I'll be releasing in 3-4 weeks (possibly sooner, but we're moving currently, so timing of things is up in the air), and then after that I'll continue working on drone videos...I've got footage for five more city videos.
We enjoyed this one a lot...spent a week in Newport and got to see the whole town, eat some good food, and film some footage in really beautiful locations.
WOWZA! 3 yrs ago, huh? Excellent work for now, forget about 3 yrs ago. Heading down from NH to RI in a couple weeks. The old lady found this gem. Fantastic work! +1 for the fly-through. 🥂
It's a trade-off. I've made slower-paced videos and they never get the same interest or viewership as the faster-paced ones. I have thought about doing more of the slower videos, but I recently heard someone say "This is TH-cam, not the Oscars". Once I heard it put in those words I shifted my mindset to "let's make videos that I enjoy making, but also that other people will enjoy watching" with the hope that by generating more interest in our videos, then we can continue to make more and more. Thank you for your feedback, though! I do appreciate hearing from people who have constructive criticism, because it helps me refine the work I do.
Thank you for the kind words. Since the beginning of trying to make TH-cam videos one of my goals has been to use good music...so many drone videos use songs that I don't like, and I wanted to take a different approach.
Fantastic, Must be one of your best pictures/drone video so far. Many fine transitions. Especially the one at 3:20. Also like that you put water, wind, aplaus etc. sound in the background. I am impressed, well done. :) btw...... What settings are you using on your GoPro cam?
Thanks! The transition at 3:20 is my favorite as well...I did it to try out something new, experiment a little, but I didn't expect to leave it there. I felt that spot in the video was a funny place to put the baseball game, especially since at first I had a hard-cut to the baseball shot. After seeing how much I liked the transition, though, I decided to modify other aspects so I could keep the baseball shot and do that transition. So I did a slow dissolve into the baseball shot, and when I was doing sound design I added some reverb to the baseball sounds so it gave it a more ethereal feel.
Settings on GoPro: 4K, 30fps, using GoPro Color (some people say don't use GoPro color and instead use the flat color profile so you have more control afterward, but I've found its hard to bring saturation back into the compressed GoPro codec without getting compression artifacts, so I keep the GoPro Color on), and I usually keep the white balance at 5600 (or whatever the number around there is...5400?). Later on if the white balance is off I can modify it, but I prefer that over auto white balance so it doesn't fluctuate.
I did! I had to take it down for other reasons, but I figured since I was making some changes anyway, might as well improve the color consistency while I was at it. Thanks for the suggestion.
Without a doubt, the best depiction of Newport I've seen. Bravo.
Thank you! I'm happy that people who know much more about Newport than I do seem to be happy with our representation of it.
Ya this video was really well done!
At first I thought wow a video of Newport South Wales UK, and after 2 seconds of the video I realised it wasn't. They are 2 VERY different places 😆 great video though 👍
Pawtucket RI IS MY HOME
Newport
Absolutely perfect. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Rhode Islander here. I agree Newport by far is the best. I tell out of town friends to always visit during late-spring and summer. And always make Newport your no.1 destination.
It's beautiful, isn't it?
It really is. Honestly if I lived in the part of the state I don't think I'd leave. Alas I live in Pawtucket and well it's not comparable to Newport.
James it still amazes me how many people don't know about this amazing place #bestkeptsecret
Idk why but this makes me proud to be born in Newport 🙂
Awesome! Glad I could do the city proud.
Same
Shorts or hundred
I grew up here, but wasn't born on the island, but my ancestors were the first settlers of Newport and Portsmouth. You can bet I'm proud!
Yes
And that my friends is why I live in Newport, RI. Beautifully made video that may even bring out a tear or two to those of us who call this beautiful city "home". Frankly, the entire State of Rhode Island is absolutely breathtaking!!!
Grew up in Newport... this video warms my ❤.
I have lived in Newport since 1998. Absolutely beautiful and astounding place. World Class.
Brilliant film - thanks for your time, skills and efforts. We visited Newport and Jamestown in September from the UK - what a beautiful area, your film provides lots of wonderful memories.
Beautiful! How the Newport of my youth has changed and grown but kept its charm.
This was our first time to Newport, and it certainly had a lot of charm. I'm sure it won't be our last time there.
This is one of our favorite videos. We watch it a couple times a week. The music is even a perfect choice for these gorgeous images. Watching this video soothes my soul.
I wish to thank you for sharing this awesome drone video with me .
Does not get any better... Bravo to YOU!!
I have lived in newport 32 years this city is steep in history there are so many interesting places to visit beautiful beaches great restaurants shopping areas the list goes on and on
Makes it look so serene
One word “stunning” !!!!!!!
Just stunning. I've watched this 20 times. The music is amazing. The scene where he goes from circling around the baseball field and fades into the sailboat is amazing. I live 1 hour from Newport. As soon as weather cracks I'll be boosted boarding around getting some footage on my phantom 4!

Such a beautiful place. I love living here and am proud to call it my home.
Very well done and appreciated from an old Newporter.

Thanks. You're right, it did take awhile. Thanks for watching!
Phenomenal work on this video! Can't wait to visit for the first time in my life next week! Can't wait! Thank you
Magnificent video of a truly beautiful place. You captured Newport masterfully, Rhode Island is truly a gem. Thank you for this.
Just visited for the first time and cannot wait to return! One of the most beautiful spots in the US.
Filming this video was our first time there as well. Been back once since then, and it is beautiful!
My family and I are relocating to Newport in just under a month. I've never been to RI but, watching this video has me even more pumped to get their. Thanks for sharing! It was awesome!
Joe, congrats! Did you guys end up making it here?
Matt & Holly.... Your work is absolutely the best of the best ! This video is breathtaking ...Your best. I've been following you since your Hartford CT stop and each time I am amazed . Thank you for all that you do.
Thank you for watching and continuing to return for more of our videos. We certainly enjoy making them and hope we can keep doing so!
I used to visit Middletown/Newport every year from 1960~2012. It was the greatest place to spend a summer vacation. I miss Rhode Island so much...
I so love this place.
Me too.
We just came back from Ri mini vacation the cliff walk was amazing!
WOW!!!... Music and Video! Thank you for "Poetry in Motion"!!!
Thank you for this. Excellent.
Sailing down to Newport during the summer on Lazybones. Hanging on a mooring for a week at Ida Lewis. Walking downtown. The sights, the smells, the people. There is no substitute.
Simply sensational! I’m from Newport and now live in another state; this made me feel like I was home. ♥️ Your work is excellent.
Thank you for the kind words on our work. We enjoy doing it very much, which I hope can be seen through our work.
Beautifully done. You did my hometown justice, thank you.
Perfection. Video is really cool and sends the right vibe of this place! Makes me to think of revisiting R.I.
Great shots! Awesome views!
Just beautiful, I haven't been to Newport, R.I. since Spring time, '91, I just remember how beautiful it is there and stayed at a sweet B&B, and saw a few of the Mansion tours and it snowed a little and I loved it all, visited a good friend in Massachusetts and then he took me to see Newport for a few days, I'll never forget that amazing place, I loved M.A. too, all of New England was wonderful!

Jeanette, it's amazing how many things have changed here but it is still beautiful.....
Outstanding, breathtaking, and absolutely beautiful. Thank you for such a high quality video that truly captures the essence of Newport!
Thank you! I'm glad I was able to do the city proud. :-)
Angelina, I think it's one of my favorite drone videos of Newport, RI
The photography is simply stunning! Great choice of music!
Another outstanding job.
wow! i will live in newport, and i’m so EXCITED! i’m from brazil :))
Beautiful city thanks for this!
Wow, thank you, for this.
Beautiful pictures! Very pretty place to visit!
Excellent video! Kudos to whoever shot and edited that video. Wonderful cinematic shots!
Newport is awesome! I love this city.
This is so wonderful what an amazing video.
I would love to go there one day ❤
Excellent mixing and shots, a job well done! Also, I live here!
Great flying and great editing!! Very impressed
Very cool!
As an islander. That was unreal to see. Awesome and absolutely amazing job
+Niko Spentzos thanks. We definitely had fun while visiting, and it is a beautiful place.
Couldn't agree more!
Absolutely loved this video, you guys did an amazing job highlighting such a spectacular town #newportri
0:30 I remember falling on sharp rocks and getting a giant gash on my knee here, my dad told me "Don't run". what did i do? i ran. had to go to the little visitor's center to get bandages
Beautiful! I hope some day I get to that level of amazingness! Love your videos.
Stunning just stunning!!

This video makes you fall in love with Newport over and over again!
The shots were on point! Will visit here someday
You should. We were there for a week and really enjoyed ourselves. It's a beautiful little area.
You will not be disappointed!
newport aint the same anymore without the arcade or the weird knick knack store with the dead bugs
Really it's amazing shoot 👌👌😘
Feeling 😲
Absolument magnifique très belle vidéo merci pour le voyage . Pat .
More videos, please. They are amazing. Congrats.
Thanks. I've got a timelapse video that I'll be releasing in 3-4 weeks (possibly sooner, but we're moving currently, so timing of things is up in the air), and then after that I'll continue working on drone videos...I've got footage for five more city videos.
Wow. Thank you, Congratulations for the channel :)
VERY VERY WELL DONE!! AMAZING
Thanks!
Great work of art, of my hometown..now I know why I never want to leave The Island.
It is a beautiful place, and we enjoyed the week we spent there!
haha I know right, this video is spectacular :)
Awesome video depiction! The best I've seen so far!
We enjoyed this one a lot...spent a week in Newport and got to see the whole town, eat some good food, and film some footage in really beautiful locations.
WOWZA! 3 yrs ago, huh? Excellent work for now, forget about 3 yrs ago.
Heading down from NH to RI in a couple weeks. The old lady found this gem. Fantastic work!
+1 for the fly-through. 🥂
Thanks for uploading this!
wow, was that beautiful !!!
I was looking for 207 Ruggles, but did not spot it.
I think this would be a nice few day getaway, it really is beautiful
Beautiful video! Wish I had those amazing locations in Holland...
Sailing down there this weekend. Going to hang on a mooring at Ida Lewis and take in the music from Fort Adams. America the beautiful.
Mooring is one of my favorite restaurants! Ida Lewis is also an amazing spot
The flying is fantastic but the split second shots slamming at you one after another is nerve wracking. I love Newport. Had an aunt who lived there.
It's a trade-off. I've made slower-paced videos and they never get the same interest or viewership as the faster-paced ones.

2020 still watching it! Been here once but def will go back
It is a beautiful place!
Wicked editing!!!
Enchanting
We drive down to Newport R.I. from the city takes 75 minutes, It's just scenic and relaxing , and rustic as most of New England is.
Great video! You are so talented and I love watching your videos. You also are very talented and paring good music with them.
Thank you for the kind words. Since the beginning of trying to make TH-cam videos one of my goals has been to use good music...so many drone videos use songs that I don't like, and I wanted to take a different approach.
kite festival Newport
Very nice. I wished you'd have have flown over my house - I would have come out and waived!
Well done.
For a moment I thought you were going to say you'd have come out and shot our drone out of the sky! Unfortunately some people have that mindset.
It's SO Beautiful!))))
I'm a fan of this!!
Me too!
Beautiful, we should use this for our Rhode Island State Website not just Newport.
Beautiful super well done
Thanks! Happy you enjoyed it.
Awesome song and editing! Going to Rhode Island this summer for some delicious vegan food! ☀️ 🌱
Don't usually give a thumbs up in the first 15 seconds of a video but here you go.
Thanks for watching, and for the thumbs up!
good job. I love this video
Connecticut Neighboor here will be visiting Newport this summer can’t wait! Amazing video !
WOW loved it
Me too!
I live in Connecticut but I love New England vacation spots! New England is so awesome! Too bad I live in New Haven 😩😥😭😪
At least New Haven is not to far away
Oof I live near Worcester mass so I feel ya
CT can be beautiful but New Haven is rough
I hate that term "new england" it's as if the revolutionary war never happened
beautiful. well done.
Thank you.
wow..this is very beautifull
+Nicholas Walditama thank you. My job was made easy because Newport is beautiful.
Nick, great place to come checkout!
Fantastic,
Must be one of your best pictures/drone video so far.

Thank you.
You're welcome.
Amazing video!
Wow, I live in a beautiful place.
Right! Newport is beautiful, I feel it is very underrated.
Fantastic
Fantastic
Newport during late spring and summer: fabulous
During winter: VERY BORING
Trust me I’m a local
thanks
It's a real treat to hear my music on such beautifully edited footage! Love it!
might be a perfect spot to live long term
Nice to have this video back in my subscription-box! :D You actually worked on the colors, didn't you? Great Job!
I did! I had to take it down for other reasons, but I figured since I was making some changes anyway, might as well improve the color consistency while I was at it. Thanks for the suggestion.
Anyone else live in Rhode Island?✌️
