Subtle sound cues can go along way in creating a more intimate and enveloping experience in your aerial videos.  Listen closely for a train, a babbling brook… even cows.  Many times you can find these sound effects for free on-line.  Viewers probably won’t realize they’re hearing them but they’ll probably have a better viewing experience non-the-less.   

All of the aerials and hyperlapses were shot on my Mavic 2 Pro or my former Mavic Pro.  I use Polar Pro neutral density filers.  For the hyperlapses I usaully use the still photographs rather than the 1080p file that's created by the Mavic.  This gives me more control in post production and allows me to create 4K video files.

Thanks for watching, and I'd love to hear your techniques for creating aerial videos, especially hyperlapses or any information on using effective LUTS.

Wow! Amazing video! What software did you use to edit the video?

Hey thanks!  I used Premiere Pro CC.  I also use After Effects for many of the hyper lapses.

Too beautiful to say any words. Amazing video! Thanks for sharing.

How amazing is that scenery, well shot an awesome shoot.

Wow stunning video, it looks amazing

Awesome footage, well done!

what a beautiful video... thanks so much for sharing

Wow!
Amazing

Well done, the length is about right and the visual are varied enough, the sounds give a nice touch but I would bump them up by at least 1.5db and and give them a tiny bit longer fade.
Overall better than some people here on the forum flying with 20K worth of equipment and providing equal or inferior quality footage.

Excellent job !!

I recognize a few of those spots! Nice job overall.

Hey thanks a lot to my fellow Utahn.  I appreciate it!

Beautiful beyond words, however I personally think of Bryce Canyon when I think of Utah. Beautiful yellows in the start of the video.
