Complex Drone Movements

Question 1

Parallax

Answer 1

The drone moves horizontally while the camera pans in the opposite direction, creating a dynamic shift in the foreground and background perspectives.

Question 2

Dronie

Answer 2

A combination of a selfie and a drone shot. The drone starts close to the subject(s) and then moves backward and upward, revealing the surrounding landscape as it goes.

Question 3

Tilt reveal

Answer 3

The drone moves forward while simultaneously tilting the camera up, revealing the landscape or subject in a dramatic manner.

Question 4

Low-to-high reveal

Answer 4

The drone starts close to the ground, gradually increasing altitude to reveal a larger landscape or point of interest.

Question 5

High-to-low reveal

Answer 5

The opposite of the low-to-high reveal, the drone starts at a higher altitude and lowers down to focus on a specific subject or scene, creating a sense of intimacy.

Question 6

Slant (Dutch angle)

Answer 6

The drone tilts the camera diagonally, creating an unusual and disorienting perspective that can add dramatic tension to a shot.

Question 7

Corkscrew

Answer 7

The drone ascends or descends while simultaneously rotating around its own axis, creating a spiraling motion that adds visual interest.

Question 8

Vertical parallax

Answer 8

The drone moves vertically while the camera tilts down or up in the opposite direction. This creates a sense of depth and perspective, as the foreground and background appear to move at different speeds.
