I am 14 years old and this is my Spark footage of my friends that I was hoping to share.

Please leave any helpful comments and check out my youtube account to give me some love.
My other friend Abel has a Gopro Karma
I use the Photos app editor to create my videos
Yes I know the footage is a little shaky

Coolest Spark video I've ever seen in fact, better than most Mavic and Phantom videos.

yeah, look at all the other videos, they don't really have style like you do

Anyone can film and take photos of landscape but having style is where the separation is at.

yeah it's good, should prob ask your parents to get you a Mavic 2 so all the memories and development in making money with production can be easy when you get older as you will have a lot of "resume" (portfolio) to work with

My parents would never buy me something that expensive. The Spark is good because it isn't so expensive.

Yeah I know but they need to realize the potential in investing in getting you a Mavic 2 if it's used like the Spark.  With the way the world is headed, a 4 year degree by the time you go to college and complete it may not be the best way to make money.

My parents would say no. The Spark is good for me right now. I see the potential in buying a Mavic 2 but I already have a drone that fits my needs. I can work on developing my flying and filming skills with my Spark and then move up the drone chain when I get better at flying and am older.

On my Youtube I have a lot of videos.
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCr7A6t_rzSIxODbMlgPP3WA?view_as=subscriber

In the beginning I started w/ the Spark too, doing what you did but you can only do so much because of it's speed.  I got involved w/ the Zoom function then got an A7 III for business.  If you aren't going to add zoom into your content you should get the Pro version.  The DJI Models are extremely stable and very reliable.  It's just a lot Quicker in the air so it feels like the area is a lot smaller than it is when flying inside the Spark.  You can also use the Mavic 2 after you get your Commercial Drone License to make money which is the reason why I suggest it.  You can meet local businesses and other places where you could be of service.  It has 6-way collision detection so if you get close to something when they are all on it will stop.  It's just a great way to make money if you are creative which you are or whoever made the video lol

The only problem is, you will be rendering at higher resolutions and frame rate which may make post-production editing more difficult.

My plan is to go to all the businesses around me and try to make them a great video they could use on their website to bring in more customers but the easiest way to do that would be to create videos from scratch to show them.

Well done. Just be careful & follow the local rules in regards to flying at night etc. Check with the local aviation authorities & check that your fight complies with all the rules before posting videos. Otherwise drone owners get a bad name... Regardless, a great video you made - well done again!

Good attitude.Good video. For the night shots you might want to get a very small flashlight, and attach it to the drone.

That might be hard, the Spark can't lift that much.
