We wanted to do the same as well to promote our media service offering and share how we did it.  The Drone Adventure video was posted on our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.zeedigital.net\/media-solutions.html\">Media Page<\/a> and it is also available for viewing below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<script id=\"Cookiebot\" src=\"https:\/\/consent.cookiebot.com\/uc.js\" data-cbid=\"e34a56cd-61d2-4407-a3f2-d7409601a95e\" data-blockingmode=\"auto\" type=\"text\/javascript\"><\/script>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video\"><video height=\"720\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 1280 \/ 720;\" width=\"1280\" controls src=\"https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Drone-Adventure.mp4\"><\/video><figcaption>Drone Adventure made for 720p at 24 fps<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The thing is, most people cant fly drones all over the place and with new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.faa.gov\/uas\/recreational_fliers\/\">FAA rules<\/a> in place, one should be cautious flying very high.  You&#8217;ll have to know where controlled airspace is as well.  Just like drone shots, timelapse, slow shutter, and slow motion shots have a market online for makers to sell to individuals such as Youtubers that want to integrate content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So this is what we did.  We looked at two low priced options for grabbing drone videos.  The first Widyos which cost $27.  It does have quite a lot of content such as 4K and HD video, photos, audio, and vector graphics. It is not a subscription, so you are provided lifetime access.  There is a sizeable number of drone footage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note that there was a lot of <a href=\"https:\/\/outrightresearch.com\/2019\/06\/widyos-video-assets-oto\/\">marketing<\/a> when it first came out however, that has died down and it only now has a <a href=\"https:\/\/widyos.site.invanto.com\/pricing\">signup page<\/a>.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"706\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Widyos-product.png\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"857\" data-link=\"https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/widyos-product\/\" class=\"wp-image-857\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Widyos-product.png 706w, https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Widyos-product-300x218.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 706px) 100vw, 706px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"908\" src=\"https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Widyos-interface.png\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"856\" data-link=\"https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/widyos-interface\/\" class=\"wp-image-856\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Widyos-interface.png 1000w, https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Widyos-interface-300x272.png 300w, https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Widyos-interface-768x697.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"560\" src=\"https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/StockNation-Sample.png\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"852\" data-link=\"https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/stocknation-sample\/\" class=\"wp-image-852\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/StockNation-Sample.png 1000w, https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/StockNation-Sample-300x168.png 300w, https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/StockNation-Sample-768x430.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We also used <a href=\"https:\/\/jvz7.com\/c\/1359591\/311689\">JVZOO&#8217;s StockNation<\/a>.

It also has a video editor built-in but it is easier to download the videos and use another editing tool (see a few paragraphs down).  Note that the $67 will not give you access to Photos and Audio files which Widyos provided.  That&#8217;s another fee of around $47.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"464\" src=\"https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/StockNation2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-854\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/StockNation2.png 1000w, https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/StockNation2-300x139.png 300w, https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/StockNation2-768x356.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>After selecting our video files, we use a free editor called <a href=\"https:\/\/fxhome.com\/hitfilm-express\">Hitfilm Express<\/a>.   You will have to download it for Mac or PC and then start editing. Although there is a paid version of Hitfilm, the Express version is more than capable of editing and composing your video and audio.  It also comes with video and audio effects. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<center>\nAdvertisement\n <a href=\"https:\/\/www.digitalocean.com\/?refcode=b38e35b2138f&#038;utm_campaign=Referral_Invite&#038;utm_medium=Referral_Program&#038;utm_source=badge\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/web-platforms.sfo2.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com\/WWW\/Badge%201.svg\" alt=\"DigitalOcean Referral Badge\" \/><\/a>\n<\/center>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below you will see a composite shot.  After each video is imported into Hitfilm Express, the video is placed into each composite shot.  This is optional it is but easier to edit the composite shots separately and the combine them in the main editor afterwards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"589\" src=\"https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Hitfilm1-1024x589.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-849\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Hitfilm1-1024x589.png 1024w, https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Hitfilm1-300x173.png 300w, https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Hitfilm1-768x442.png 768w, https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Hitfilm1-1140x656.png 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><figcaption>Composite shot<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Below is how the main editor looks like with the various composite shots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"623\" src=\"https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Hitfilm2-1024x623.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-850\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Hitfilm2-1024x623.png 1024w, https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Hitfilm2-300x183.png 300w, https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Hitfilm2-768x468.png 768w, https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Hitfilm2-1140x694.png 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><figcaption>Main editor<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The whole idea is to fit, splice, and, transition the composite shots to your liking and same goes for the audio as well.  If you are familiar with using iMovie or Windows Movie Maker, Hitfilm Express should be an easy adjustment.  Exporting your final product is simple as well.  There are various video profiles to choose from your you can create your own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"629\" src=\"https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Hitfilm3-1024x629.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-861\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Hitfilm3-1024x629.png 1024w, https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Hitfilm3-300x184.png 300w, https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Hitfilm3-768x472.png 768w, https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Hitfilm3-1140x700.png 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><figcaption>Export screen<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"940\" height=\"520\" src=\"https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Drone-Adventure-end-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-858\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Drone-Adventure-end-1.png 940w, https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Drone-Adventure-end-1-300x166.png 300w, https:\/\/zeedigital.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Drone-Adventure-end-1-768x425.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>All in all, a straight forward editing process.
