It’s not Superman, a bird, or a plane, but it is flying through the air at all times of the day. It’s a drone, and you can bet dollars to doughnuts it has a camera attached. Valorous Circle is going to share with you how to make drone videos for marketing.
The drone itself isn’t new technology. Unmanned aerial vehicles, or UAVs for short, go back 100 years. Many took their designs from the aircraft of the time, eventually evolving into sleeker models on much smaller scales.
Today’s drones are more alien, or at least how we perceived extraterrestrial visitors crafts in the 1950s. Drones feature multiple propeller arms, landing bases, and mounts for cameras or cargo crates.
And they’re cool, fast, and an integral part of today’s video-making landscape.
Using drones to create marketing videos is one of the more lucrative aspects of owning a drone, if you can pass specific tests, that is. *A license is not required to shoot personal or publicly shared videos. Potential fines for shooting paid drone videos, however, is steep without proper registration.
If you want to make money while operating drones, then you will need more than the MSRP suggests because learning how to make drone videos is one thing – learning how to navigate the airways is another.
The first step in monetizing your drone talents is passing the Aeronautical Knowledge Test to receive the FAA Part 107 Remote Pilot Certificate. If you think that’s a mouthful, it’s also a brainful. There are 60 questions you must answer in two hours, and the test cost is roughly the same as a lower-end drone model.
After your license and registration, you’re set to start shooting videos, and the opportunities are endless. There are numerous sources to find out which drone is right for you, cinematography tips, and high-earning revenue streams for experienced fliers.
Flying drones depends on safety, security, and privacy. Inexperience can damage your drone and others’ property, no-fly zones are real, and sometimes people don’t take kindly to drones flying overhead.
Businesses, including Valorous Circle, are always looking to gain an advantage with emerging marketing technologies.
