New Zealand Drone Footage from the Coromandel

6 years 2 months ago #565684 by chrisontour84
Hey guys! This is the first time I used some copyright-free music for one of my videos and just wanted to check what you think of the cutting in general? It is supposed to be kind of a trailer for my blog.
Thanks for any feedback! :)



Cheers,
Chris from www.chrisontour84.de/

I'm not big on the music, but the footage looks good. I'd be interested to know how long it took to retrieve the drone after that tree top landing.....(if I saw that correctly).

Why so serious?

That looks beautiful there.  What drone are you using?

So, I saw pretty much the same shot repeated with minor variations. All in the same location? Doesn't say "travel" to me, it says "hiking" or "mountain climbing". The falling drone shot makes no sense. The music really doesn't fit. It needs to tell a story and engage the viewer. I'm not sure this does that.

A trailer for your blog.... is that a thing?

Love that location.  Not my first choice of music, but it works.  Did you take any still shots from that spot?  I bet a sunset or sunrise that would be amazing.   


+1 on what drone you are using?

Welcome to New Zealand!
I live in Takapuna, on the North Shore of Auckland, approx 2 hours from where you filmed.
There's a lot more to see and do, but I guess you already know that. As a 'trailer', it's a good intro.
The music suggests fun, which I like; you don't want to make this medium too serious.
You've obviously put a lot of work into recording your travels. Well done and all the best,
Neil.

Don't get me wrong, the drone coverage here is incredible, however I want to see the still shots from here too!  Incredible!!

A bad day at the race track is better than a good day in the office
