Cinematic Journey: Road to the Storm

Oh no! I watched my video on my Samsung phone, Iphone, LG tv, MAC laptop, they were all very dark! Sigh! That means, my desktop's monitor is so bright! GEEZ!
Back in the days of Google+, I was an avid photographer, capturing the beauty of nature around me with my trusty Canon 50D DSLR. My workflow often involved editing these photos in Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom, transforming serene scenes into dark, ominous masterpieces. Today, I decided to revisit that style-this time using DaVinci Resolve. While I couldn’t replicate the exact vibe, I came impressively close, and I’m thrilled with the outcome.
Not everyone may appreciate the moody aesthetic, but remember: art is a personal journey. The most important audience to please is yourself.
Anyways, for this project, I mounted my DJI Action 2 camera on a 7-inch cinematic quadcopter. To make it happen, I designed a custom mount in FreeCAD and brought it to life with my Bambu Lab P1S 3D printer. The Action 2 is about 60 grams lighter than the GoPro 9, so I was curious to see how it would perform in flight.
The verdict? I’m absolutely in love with the camera’s field of view-ultra-wide and incredibly stable. It truly elevates the cinematic experience! 🎥✨
I just watched the uploaded 4K. OMG, the video quality is so crap! The compression done by RUclips is very unacceptable. Oh well, it's a free service! LOL!
