There is nothing worst that you start filming 200 meters away from the person and the viewers will be wondering “What is the point of this shot? What is he is trying to show us?”. The person won’t be visible in the frame so instead – try to fly lower and closer, try to keep the object in the center or at least in the frame, and keep it slow.

The tip #5 is to use the intelligent flies mode that your drone already has to your advantage. When you want to include yourself in the footage you can use Quick shots because you don’t need to hold your controller, everything is automated and can create some amazing shots without even keeping the controller in your hand and it little looks like somebody else is filming you.
