rockliffe Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 A few weeks ago I was asked to shoot some material of Downside Abbey, it wasn't until I arrived, that I was told I could also film inside the abbey! Without going into any great detail, shooting inside with a drone (UAV) comes with it's own set of challenges. Anyway, I thought some of my virtual buddies would like to see how it turned out...

spirit_66 Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Great shots of a wonderful object. The inside takes reminded me of some scenes in the movie "The Da Vinci Code". Well done. Spirit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jabble Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Very impressive! This shows how drones are likely to replace booms and cable runs for many types of filming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maurizio Giorgi Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Absolutely a brodcast quality Howard!!! You're a pro!!! You should do a reportage at Belvoir castle, Leicestershire, where they shooted the movie "the haunting". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockliffe Posted July 9, 2015 Author Share Posted July 9, 2015 Thanks all again fellas.... Beautiful Howard, nicely done! May I ask which camera you are using because the quality is amazing. Ben Hi Ben, sure, it's the DJI Inspire. I shoot at 4K 25fps and then render out to 1080p HD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lthendrix Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Wow Rocky what a fantastic trip, I dont know about this place and am going to find out about it now on the web. I am sure it was built long ago and those ceiling arches are of fantastic architecture and construction. also friend your editing of your footage was great. You must have one of those gyroscopic camera stabilizer "thingys"( a highly scientific term I know) or else you have incredible thumb control.

teecee Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 might I just suggest that this might be the first of a series? I would love to see York and Beverley Minsters done by you if you ever get the chance, and even some of the more interesting Medieval churches.. Teecee.

You must have one of those gyroscopic camera stabilizer "thingys"( a highly scientific term I know) or else you have incredible thumb control. Here is a small video that explain how drone can give a stable image, it's called a brushless gimbal. It's a gyroscopic board / support for the cam. It's built out of 2 brushless motor (or 3) and a board that as the auto leveling gyro. Brushless motor, no brush and very fast reaction. Smae goes for propulsion of the drone, powerful brushless motor... no brush mean no real wear or friction. In this video you will that that no matter how the drone is shaken by the wind or pilot error the cam stay steady... it's not exactly the same for Howard machine (high end drone $$$) but you will get the idea. >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sv2IF7V-nv0 Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
