[QUOTE="Andre Levite, post: 84287, member: 10850"] Back in the day when drones were prohibitively expensive and complex there was very little competition to sell footage. But back then they were a cheaper alternative to renting a helicopter. Nowadays for $500 anybody can get decent 4k aerial video and pics with a few hours practice. As a result lots of established drone videography companies are starting to fail. Raw footage of scenery doesn't have much market value. The post production editing is where the value is added and the professionals make their money. It requires artistic talent and a great dedication of time. Some local businesses aren't too concerned with production value but those gigs are one-offs that don't pay much. I hope you can make it work. [/QUOTE]
