I am sure you make some awesome videos when over here. If you get here, then you must shoot some of Whangarei's mountains, they are awesome with incredible views.

AWESOME Video!

Actually I lived on the North Island for about 8 months many years ago, doing the breakfast show for Radio Waikato, got to travel a bit but never made it up that far, who knows?

You're welcome!

What will happen if a DJI air unit is used and placed on top of a DJI drone? Will the air unit's transmission damage the transmitter on the drone?

I think the answer is clearly: 42

Amazing video Chris. Love how you connect and transition your bits along with the music that sounds like it was written specifically for your work.  Please don't take this as criticism , but I am just curios this time you did not use sounds that animals make / ambient nature sounds that you normally combine with music , just curious to ask you if you only do those for some videos, certain style of videos , etc. Enjoyed your video a lot as always, very inspiring. Take care, Mike.

Thanks Mzp, believe it or not I have only done that once, for "Dressed in Green-Australia". It's sound design or sound-scaping and it was my first attempt. It's very time consuming making sure every piece of audio is accurate and relevant. So it's just another style, I know a lot of people use it and I may well revisit it again, but it's more a matter of finding the time tbh!

Wow fantastic footage  the views are fantastic.

Sure, got you Chris. I can't even begin to imagine how time consuming it would be, I never attempted anything like this, but it does sound very complicated. It must have been "Dressed in Green-Australia". Totally enjoyed your work in your latest video. Imho the music makes up for sounds effects and creates great immersion together with the video. Looking forward to seeing your future work Chris!

Thanks Mzp, just working on my new Merry Christmas Australia video which I like to do every year, here's some past ones FYI: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdEqQY13oxm1mh_3mccJLsYJZb1DDUyrP

Thanks Tony, But as you know it all comes down to the time you spend shooting on location and at the other end, in the edit suite. I know a lot of people don't have that time so I am blessed to be able to put a lot of work into each short film.
