Testing out the Mavic inside Abandoned Skate Arena empty for 15 years - Australia


Quite a tough flight, drift, obstacles, mag interference but the Mavic was perfect for such a tight place

It was a little tight :/
I knew the space pretty well but not much room for error.

I've loved this place, so many memories

It's a shame to see it end up like this

I can imagine. Nicely captured though and as you say difficult environment where a Mavic comes into its own.

Thanks A1000,
This kind of environment is one of the reasons I chose the Mavic. I have been photographing urban locations for years now. I have a good collection of places to head back to with the Mavic. All a bit of a squeeze though.

Hey thanks so much Bunny, still learning so these comments really encourage me.

It wasn't heaps of work in post, mostly just creating the audio track and titles- the footage spliced together very nicely.

I took time to try to only capture nice shots so I didn't have to wade through a heap of messy footage.

This was using Final Cut,
iMovie would do a similar job

Absolutely phenomenal footage then, I was guessing you had done a ton of post production to make the color pop. You are an artist with much natural talent, very admirable; you could probably pay for your drones by selling your work, just a thought.

Thanks heaps Bunny,

Always working on a sale not much room in people's wallets for art - they keep releasing cool drones and everyone's cash burns.

Really appreciate the comments. Trying to keep the videos interesting. Photographer for years but recently new to drones.

I was thinking the new owners of the apartments might like some stills of the wall art and murals after they turn it into a sterile, austere housing complex; give it a little soul.  The world needs more art.
