1 - 2:15 Shoot in D-LOG if possible 2 - 2:44 Use F4 if using Mavic 2 Pro with Polar PRO ND Filter -> Aperture: F4, 30FPs, 1/60th shutter speed. 3 - 3:06 Use ND Filters. Use shutter speed to be double of frame rate. Example 24fps should have 1/50th shutter speed. 4 - 4:17 Use 30 fps for smooth movements. 5 - 5:20 Achieve smooth movements. Avoid jerks.
@@froznfire9531 set it at 5200K even though the sunset creates 2200K light? That part messes me up. The refraction off the clouds will create more of the cooler purples so maybe it averages the temp up a bit?. I have indeed experimented with different temperatures and they all look good in different ways. But i always have to mask above and below the horizon to alter the temperatures of the ground because it ends up looking way too blue when I set my temperature in camera to the sky. I guess I'm asking what the general rule is haha
For anyone not yet enrolled in the course, I highly recommend it. I joined about a month ago and it's worth it in every sense. Great content, extremely responsive and they add new content all the time.
I've watched tons of other tips and tutorials on drone footage the past year after I bought me a Mavic 2 Pro. But this is by far the best all arounder out there. Every info I've got from those videos came in place after watching yours. Thank you so much. Subscribed. :)
I love your sense of humour! I don't know much about drones but am a writer and I am writing an article on drones. You explained the technical stuff so well that even I could understand most of what you were talking about! You made me laugh when you said "...raise the shutter speed that will also make your footage look like garbage." Nice, informative video. Thanks!
I believe the #1 unspoken tip is have an amazing scene to shoot. My backyard looks nice but a waterfall is going to look like a more professionally shot every time.
Despite knowing composition and the general tips for recording any type of video, this is super useful for someone who's just picked up their first drone. Thanks a lot!
I appreciate the to-the-point pro tips you offered. Some are out there for a joy ride which I do sometimes too. But this helps me know what potential clients might expect and hone those pro skills.
Fantastic tips which I agree with, although in tests, I've found D-Cinelike to be as good as D-log for grading, but it gives a slightly less flat image to look at whilst shooting, which helps with judging exposure correctly. Thanks for the great video!
@@ke4uyp Please do not believe this. It is so wrong that it's getting funny... The noise in his "tests" does neither come from the shutter or aperture. It's coming from the program which is trying to brighten it all up. High ISO definitely produces noise. In every case. I can't believe that this is his real opinion. It needs to be an april fool...
I might have missed my window for Parker to respond, but maybe a question to the masses. What is the best Color temperature setting for golden hour on the drone? I've been setting mine to 5400K and then masking the sky and ground separately to grade separately. I warm up the ground colors by adding a bit of orange temperature because at 5400K things below the horizon appear way too blue, but the sky looks nice. Of course, I tweak the shadows, exposure, saturation,etc to make each mask layer look really good. I'm just wondering if I'm setting the best Color temperature to capture the best colors.... What's the optimal rule to follow at golden hour.
This is by far the best channel on TH-cam. I've been subscribed for a while, and you guys keep coming out with useful information. Most channels just start talking about themselves because they don't have anything useful to say anymore. Keep up the great work! Do you know if the original Phantom 4 also has 10 bit color in D-Log? Thanx! P.S. I love the new additions. Landon, Jake, keep it up.
Park Walkback is that kind of guy who gives us pure content. Not the kind of guy who shows 1-2 minutes scratching his butt and telling his life or showing logo for 1-2 minutes. Out of 40 minutes he will give you pure content. . Watch at least 100 times and let your drone outside and u inside ! Mostly for now :-)!
You might want to try a Mavic Air 2 first. They're pretty rad and there are videos here on TH-cam that do side by side of the footage. There are a few things that the Air 2 is superior at.
@@ramymelhem Oh yeah! You just have to look at life through the eyes of a photographer/cinematographer and you'll find amazing footage opportunities anywhere!
This tells me that the best drone is the Air 2S. 1 inch sensor? Check... Ability to shoot 4k at 60 fps? Check... Only con? Fixed aperture of f2.8, but not a con as the higher apertures produce "softer" images anyway. Great video, btw!
WOW. what a great Video. you made it so easy to understand. This will definitely help me shoot my videos for my channel. I'm new to shooting videos and this should help me out allot. Thank you

Yes this is really good Ian. I learned a lot Jake 💪 thanks

Rule #1: Actually GO to somewhere worth filming with a Drone.
Rule #2. See Rule #1.
That's so true! Or just find things to fly through.
Rule number 3 follow the airspace rules in your country and don't do anything stupid
and buy a mavic 2 pro 😂
@@bricktown3156 the best ever!
That's the hardest part
1 - 2:15 Shoot in D-LOG if possible
2 - 2:44 Use F4 if using Mavic 2 Pro with Polar PRO ND Filter -> Aperture: F4, 30FPs, 1/60th shutter speed.
3 - 3:06 Use ND Filters. Use shutter speed to be double of frame rate. Example 24fps should have 1/50th shutter speed.
4 - 4:17 Use 30 fps for smooth movements.
5 - 5:20 Achieve smooth movements. Avoid jerks.
The bottom line to improving your drone footage is to go to beautiful locations like those in your video, but your tips are still very useful. Thanks.
Guess the editing is another important factor ;-)
I agree. The location you choose also helps improve your drone footage
Shoot in golden hour and everything looks epic.
True
@@brettgaramella oooh i would love to see some example videos and images. do u have a webside?
What color temperature do you set your drone at during golden hour?
@@ramymelhem usually just sunny, so 5200k... but you experiment, try cloudy, so 5500k or maybe 4500k...

4.35 - the best footage in video!
the only channel that doesn't recommend Mavic air 2 over the Mavic pro 2. Man I love the honestly on this channel, pls keep it this way !
Epic drone shots ! In my opinion smartphone shots + orange and teal LUT on top almost has the same cinematic effect.
Excellent video! One of the best drone videos I have seen!! Thank you!

Spent years looking for best tutorial, I found it! Thanks a million guys!
Awesome to hear! and How are you getting on with you drone works now? it would be great to see some works!
Parker nailed it by bringing Jake onto the team. This is by far the best video tutorial content on TH-cam.
Hands down, one of the best tutorials about drones on TH-cam.

Great tips brother! I am about to head out to the Rocky Mountains to do some drone filming for a new video I am making :)
What are some great spots you go? Just put out a view videos of Cline River, which is a beautiful location.
My wife's just given me a 2 Pro for Christmas. Thanks for a really great intro to it.

Fantastic video, thanks for putting these all together.
very nice to see this technique to driving drone. i have to save money to buy this on my upcoming videos. thanks.!!
Fantastic Parker. I waited long and patiently but will soon invest in a drone.
Great practical list that absolutely saved me some time and energy! Thanks for the concise tutorial, Jake!
Hey very well explained. Loved it. Thanks
I was almost about to order Mavic Air 2, not anymore after seeing this, thanks Jake and Parker.

Great tips. Good flights and color grades.
I like you're straight up flicking one of the joy sticks in that shot! Haha! Great video though! Thanks, Jake and other members of the FTF crew
Dude just flicked the joystick lmao
Like a nipple!
This is brilliant. Thanks so much.
I love the train sequence!

Awesome! Do you fly the drones?
Oceanside! Those paddleboarding shots are great. PS: Every time he says ‘buttery’ take a shot.
thanks for the tips..very helpful for beginner drone users like me..i watched until the end..very useful..
I'll be starting a training course for drone operation and this tutorial is very helpful. Many thanks for the tips!!
Love it when Jake says “garbage” 😂
laugh a bit at red X movements guy, funny when he smacked the stick@6:10....as that is some serious control..
some of the best advice ever! thank you !!!
Really good explanation!
I got some practicing to do!

Awesome how you showed footage of what looks bad & good I never subscribe to people but I suscribed to your channel 👍🏽
Beautiful video thank you for sharing. this information is very important for my videos for my channel. Thank you so much 👍👍 greetings from Italy
When you say you will put a link below to the ND filters, you should put a link below.
There's a link with all gear they recommend, you just gotta go into de web-site an type ND Filter :)
Lmfaooo I cracked up at the flick at 6:14 😅
I still have a long way to go as a beginner on TH-cam, but I want to learn about drones as soon as possible.
K-FOREST drones are awesome to use but can’t be used all year round due to weather and everything normally 😀
Stunning Cenimatography and informative video 🎉🎉🎉
Great video. Thanks for the awesome tips.
Quick tip nr. 7 . Use the controler without the controler sticks. this makes it much eaiser to control the drone smoothly.
how you will control without sticks ?
Excellent video! Very good tips, indeed!
Thanks for this summary. Simple and good. This will boost many peoples drone video work!
Great video, thank you.
Can you change those settings on the dji mavic pro?
This is so freakin helpful... TY
Epic!!! Totally fantastic video
Thanks 🙏 Parker I learned some from your brother.
Flying lower than higher looks better to me. 5:16 looks so beautiful with the parallax
Take my money! 😂 Great tutorial guys! You have inspired us a lot!
