Drone Photography and Video
Today's drones are amazing. What's coming in the next year or two will be even more amazing. Drones today offer a lot to many industries. But the bottom line about unmanned aerial systems?
They're flying cameras.
While UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) can be used in a variety of industries, they're little more than flying cameras with GPS built in. That means every photo taken has information about the image's location, elevation, time of day, etc. All of that information can come together in map models for construction clients, real estate clients, those looking for inspection services, and more. The way all of the data is collected is through images and videos generated by the little flying cameras we call drones.
The most basic application of drones is very simple. Aerial Photography and Videography. We're here to tell you, the images generated can be more than just a basic photo.
Photography and Video Expertise
As with any other camera, experience and skill goes a long way toward creating great images and video. AZ Drone currently offers 2 experienced photographers on staff who were doing imaging work prior to the advent of drone technology. Many remote pilots today don't have a background in photographic services. AZ Drone offers both skilled piloting and professional photography expertise.
Getting out and capturing images and video with a drone is just the beginning of the story. After flying for clients a lot more work goes on behind the scenes. Image selection, post production, editing, color correction, and more. For every hour we're on a client location generating images, we spend several hours on selection and post processing. While unmanned aerial systems (UAS) are technological marvels, many don't offer the greatest image and video out of the box. That's where photographic knowledge really comes into play, and AZ Drone has you covered there!
