Why Drone Videos Aren’t Just for Big Brands (And How You Can Use Them Too)

| How one drone, a trip to China, and a bit of curiosity unlocked a new way to tell stories
👋 It Started With a Souvenir
In 2025, after a trip to China, I came back with a small souvenir — a drone.
At first, I just wanted to play. Film the hills around Stuttgart. Fly over a park. Learn how it worked. I didn’t imagine it would become something bigger.
But after a few flights and even more hours editing with a simple app, I started to see the potential. What felt like a gadget became a tool — a way to tell stories, showcase spaces, capture emotions from above.
And I realized: you don’t need a production studio to create something captivating.
💡 Drone Video Is More Accessible Than You Think
Most people think drone video is only for:
-
Real estate listings
-
Luxury hotel
-
Big-budget marketing campaigns
But that’s just one side of it.
I believe drone videos can be simple, raw, and still powerful — especially when used by:
-
🎨 Small creators making reels, shorts, or travel videos
-
🏡 Airbnb hosts who want to show their property from a new angle
-
🧑🤝🧑 Event organizers or couples who want outdoor moments captured
-
📍 Local businesses promoting their area, shop, or services
-
🏞️ Hikers and explorers capturing trails or nature shots
🛠️ The “Complicated Stuff”? I’ve Got It Covered
Let’s be honest:
The technical and legal stuff is what keeps most people away from drone video.
✅ A1/A3 UE Drone License
✅ Full Insurance
✅ QR code registration
✅ Pre-flight checklist and no-fly zone awareness
You don’t need to think about any of that — I’ve handled it all.
All you need is an idea and a goal. I’ll help with the rest.
🎬 My Service: Choose What Works for You
I’ve created three simple tiers, depending on what you need:
Only Photo | RAW Footage | DJI App Edit | Custom Edit |
I take the photos and send them to you. | I fly, I film, and I send you the original files — perfect if you have your own editor. | Using DJI’s mobile tools, I cut a short video with music — great for social media. | I take more time to craft something a bit more personal using CapCut or VN — with titles, transitions, and a clear story arc. |
🎯 Whether it’s for your project, your brand, or just for fun — I’ll help you create something from above.
✈️ Final Thoughts
Drone video isn’t about hype. It’s about perspective.
It’s about capturing something ordinary from an extraordinary angle.
So no — you don’t need to be a big brand.
You just need an idea, and someone like me to bring it to life.
