This. Is. Amazing. And yes, I know this is a motorcycle site, but dangit, sometimes you gotta bend the rules a little bit!
Scroll down and check out this ONE SHOT FILM now! How fortuitous is it that this shows up in my news feed on the same day I announced that Road Reality got its own drone?
The folks at Jaybird Films recorded this entire 90-second film in 1 take, starting outside a bowling alley and flying around the entire joint, up and down lanes, into other rooms. All from one drone, in one take. According to some info. I found, they flew 10 to 12 takes before landing on the right one, and the film’s drone pilot scouted the location on the day prior to the shoot. I mean, the skill it takes to fly a first-person drone [FPV] in the first place, and then to so accurately fly it around people and moving objects, into and over obstacles.
It’s got Hollywood talking – give these guys a budget and let ’em go to work!
And then there’s the ending. I won’t spoil it for you – check it out for yourself in their YouTube video below:
