Digital Production Buzz

Nothing has revolutionized filming quite like drones. They enable us to get shots that were often impossible before, even with helicopters. Tonight, we talk with drone manufacturers, pilots, trainers and stock footage companies about how to pick the right drone, safe shooting techniques, and how to find the best drone footage for your projects.
