“Five years from now, this is going to be commonplace, that people use drones to document news stories” I realize this statement is probably obvious in the abstract, but the footage makes it viscerally obvious.
- baddox 12y agoThe crazy part is, this type of footage can easily be produced with less than a thousand dollars of gear, assuming we're okay with a GoPro and not a truly professional camera (and for breaking news coverage, I think GoPro quality is perfectly sufficient). How much does a news helicopter cost? A thousand dollars an hour, plus huge initial costs?
