Aerial drone footage of the Staten Island Boat Graveyard - New York City
Did you know that editing is mood based? Meaning if I were to edit a video or a photo let’s say today - odds are tomorrow it’d be something totally different. I have a feeling this is the case with this video...
I typically don’t add any filters when I edit videos as I like to keep things natural. But in this case with all of the rusty ships and brown colors I figured I’d add a desert glare filter and a vignette for more drama. Plus I think the music also influenced me to do something out of my norm.
🤔 I’d be interested to know if you thought I overdid it. Please let me know in the comment section below!

With all that being said here’s my drone footage of the Staten Island boat graveyard located in New York City.

Maaaaaaan I love the video and the edit! You did not overdid it for sure!
I think the colors and the vibe is fitting the music and the transitions are dope as well.
Are you flying a mavic ? Which editing program are you using?
I saw some stuttering: Could it be that you are recording with a different framerate than your timeline is? They should fit and you will have smooth footage :)
Thanks for sharing brother! We ned more of that kind of stuff on dtube! :)
Peace!
Thanks for the kind words! I'm flying the Mavic Air using Final Cut X. And yes, I did mix frame rates (good eye!). The automated modes only shoot in 30fps, while I was mainly shooting in 24.
I'll do my best to share more drone footage in the future. Especially while the summer is still here!
Cheers

Hey man! I enjoyed the video, not the music so much though. I think a more relaxing tone would have worked better. Just giving my opinion because you asked. Good work.
LOL No worries - I can see how the music was a bit much. But thanks for the feedback as I asked for it!
Cheers!
