UdemyThis e-book compresses hours of Phantom Filmschool video instruction into a user-friendly reference. It covers 25 distinct aerial shots—each broken down into description, video demonstration, key drone settings, step-by-step methodology, and annotated screenshots.
The shots span the full range: flyby and orbit techniques, reveal movements, rises and pans, lookdown approaches, creative effects like corkscrews and railcam tracking, and more advanced features like Focus mode and Follow mode. Many shots include alternative methods, so you can choose the approach that fits your situation.
Practical features are covered too: the batch waypoint tool for efficient flight planning and Relative-to-Ground (RTG) flying so your drone maintains consistent altitude over uneven terrain. This handbook is designed for drone pilots who've enjoyed the Phantom Filmschool series and want a portable, quick-reference guide to recreate professional aerial cinematography on every flight.
**Compatible with all Mavic, Phantom 3/4 & Inspire models**
Welcome to the brand new e-book based on the popular Phantom Filmschool series of online courses.
A lot of students have asked me for a book or cheat-sheet as a convenient way to remind them of the killer shots taught in the courses.
So I decided to create this e-book. And instead of basing it only on a single course I decided to take it all the way and teach all 22 killer shots taught in Phantom Filmschools 1,2 & 3.
This book takes hours and hours of course material and distills it into a user friendly format with:
- a description of the killer shot
- a video demo of the shot
- key settings
- the methodology, and
- screenshots with notes and annotations
In addition to this the book also covers alternative methods for several shots and also deals with popular items such a the batch waypoint tool to fly relative to ground.
If you enjoyed Phantom Filmschool then you are going to love this handbook.
