There is no easier way to get an establishing shot than using a drone. Meet Jacob Sigala, a photographer, filmmaker and creative director. His first drone was the Mavic 1 Pro in 2016 and his first flight happened while he was traveling in Iceland.

Amazing right?

Not really if you’re trying to figure out how to operate the drone AND you’ve got windy conditions. He was not prepared, his drone did NOT fly the way he expected it to, but I applaud him because he did it anyway (and kept trying!!) even in windy and challenging situations.

Deciding to fly the drone is half the battle.
