I do I have the Polar Pro Cinema series ND/PL 4,8, and 16.  From  00:00 to 01:00 there were no filters applied (before they came in the mail), and from 01:00 to 01:30 I had on the 8 and then the 4.  They make a huge difference in smoothing out pans, and in really bright conditions.

Anyone have tips for a newbie like myself for editing? Just started using premiere pro and there is a LOT to learn.

There are lots of tutorial videos. Check Help in Premiere and YouTube. Watch original poster's video and ask yourself if music fits cinematic feel?

Will do thanks Marty!  Matching music has been one of the most difficult processes for me so far, I don't know if I should have the video done first or find a song that I like, and then try and make cuts at the appropriate points in the song.

Thanks for the info. I've been playing with my filters and here in Southern Utah on a bright day I'm using either a ND8 or ND16. The filters really seem to bring out the deep red of our rocks here. My P4 and Mavic both have different results depending on which filters I use. Great Video! I also use the Polar Pro.

For sure! The filters help out so much, especially with the snow.  I need to plan a trip down there soon, its definitely some amazing scenery down in southern Utah that I would love to explore with the mavic.  What are peoples attitudes towards drones down there/ do you feel like you can fly pretty much anywhere?

Drone activity hasn't been hammered too bad here yet. Be aware that you cannot fly in any of the National Parks so Zion and Bryce, etc are out. For me, I always scout a location to be assured that I'm not flying and filming hikers and campers.  I rarely fly on impulse although it's very tempting at times.  One thing about this part of the state is that there's a whole lot of nothing to fly over. Great vistas and overlooks.

It is a bummer that National Parks are a no go.  I'm the same way , there are so many times I end up scouting an area just to be shut down by weather or other unforeseen circumstances (like required updates when you have no service).  Can't wait to make it down that way!

I may be a bit bias but Utah has just as good if not better skiing than Colorado, plus you have access to 7+ resorts within an hour of the airport!
