How can drones transform the media industry?

The media industry has come under extreme scrutiny over recent years from one end of the spectrum to the other.

And while investigations into the moral conduct of print media has come under fire, so too has the film industry – with the rise of #metoo.

But now, with the rise in popularity of drone pilots using commercial drones, it is clear that there is now a distinct shift in focus of the future of media. And Quote 4 Drones will tell you why.

MOVIES

For most film buffs, it’s not simply the story line that captures their attention but the cinematography of the film. So it comes as no surprise that film directors and producers are constantly looking for new methods to achieve a jaw dropping response to their production – step forward drone technology.

Already, movies including Wolf On Wall Street and Captain America are using drones and drone pilots for filming scenes that require fast paced action sequences and birds eye views, allowing the viewer to have a real life experience.

Literally, no other, yes we will repeat, no other method can start a scene, say in a building and end up hundreds of feet in altitude in one uncut shot.

Obviously you can achieve Ariel shots with a helicopter, but then producers have to take into account air disturbance and shadows – which when working on a budget every minute counts to get that perfect money shot.

JOURNALISM

Credibility of a news report is paramount when trying to increase viewership and readership.

So if a TV journalist is covering a war such as in Syria, there are areas prohibited to enter – but with drone technology that problem has now ceased.

With the use of drone pilots they can now capture footage to give viewers a real time experience of news – aiding credibility.

Exploring the Depths: The Advent of Underwater Drones

  The vast and mysterious realm of the ocean has always captivated human imagination. From the beautiful coral reefs teeming with life to the dark, uncharted depths where sunlight cannot penetrate, the underwater world holds countless secrets waiting to be unravelled. In the not-so-distant past, the only way to explore these depths was through manned submarines and remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), but now, a new player has entered the scene: underwater drones. The Rise of Underwater Drones Just as aerial drones revolutionized the way we gather information and conduct surveillance from the skies, underwater drones have opened up a whole new frontier of exploration and research beneath the ocean's surface. These remotely operated submersibles are equipped with cameras, sensors, and sometimes even manipulator arms, allowing them to capture stunning imagery, collect data, and even perform tasks in otherwise inaccessible underwater environments. Applications and Uses The poten...

The Benefits of Using Drones for Exterior Building Cleaning

In recent years, the use of drones has become increasingly popular in various industries, including the cleaning and maintenance of buildings. One innovative application of drones is in exterior building cleaning, offering a range of benefits over traditional cleaning methods. Let’s explore the advantages of using drones for this purpose: 1. Cost-Effective: Using drones for exterior building cleaning can be more cost-effective compared to traditional methods that may require specialized equipment, expensive scaffolding, or manual labour. Drones can access hard-to-reach areas without the need for expensive equipment, resulting in cost savings for building owners and cleaning companies. 2. Efficiency: Drones can clean building exteriors faster and more efficiently than manual methods. With their ability to fly and move around structures, drones can cover large surface areas in a shorter amount of time, reducing the overall cleaning time required. 3. Safety: Cleaning the exter...

Underwater Drones are transforming marine science

  The vast and mysterious underwater world has always fascinated scientists and explorers alike. From vibrant coral reefs to the dark, unexplored trenches of the ocean, understanding these environments is crucial not only for marine biology but also for monitoring the health of our planet. Recently, scientists and researchers have been employing a revolutionary tool underwater drones to study marine life, monitor environmental changes, and explore underwater ecosystems with unprecedented detail. Studying Marine Life in Their Natural Habitat Traditional methods of studying marine life often involved direct human observation through diving or the deployment of stationary cameras, which can be limited by depth, time, or visibility. Underwater drones change this dynamic by enabling: Detailed behaviour analysis: High-resolution cameras capture real-time footage of marine creatures, revealing hunting, mating, and social behaviours. Tracking elusive species: Wit...
