WOW that was so helpful and One of the first of its kind that I've seen. I recently bought both the mavic pro and the phantom 4 pro. Funny because I've never flown anything prior to Christmas of this year when a mavic pro was found sitting under my Christmas tree. FOR ME! I loved the hobby so much that I went ahead and bought It's bigger brother so my mavic wouldn't be lonely. LOL. With that being said, I'm a newbie to drones and movie making however, I have a great eye for photography and videos in general, I just never done them myself. SO, thanks for this lesson on where I could start my work flow and in the order in which to get started. At least now I have a base line to follow until I find my own way of doing things. Please do more. I got a lot from your video. I also noticed that you're not far from me. ie, cape may. I live in South Philadelphia and plan on doing some videos down the shore whether it be cape may, wildwood or Atlantic city, all are within An hour of my home. Ok well thanks again for your hard work and great videos. I'm always waiting for the notification bell to go off to watch another one. Lol. THANKS Michael D
Billy. I'm a fan. You are very clear in your delivery, making projects and knowledge on various topics easy for a newbie to understand. Keep up the great work!
Nice! Thanks. Trying to get back into the editing hobby but needed a reminder on how to be organized about it to save maximum time. Had to google it, but to add a marker in Final Cut Pro, just press M.
I've followed all of your guidance on camera settings and have started to really see an improvement in my photography style thanks to you. But my videos aren't very good and neither is my editing. I have great ideas. Just bad execution for filming and editing. I'm hoping that this will help get me in the right direction.
+Ian Andrews Just need practice. I've been messing around with video editing for around 6 years now, but I have finally been able to keep up with making videos on this channel with a little determination.
Thanks for the tips on finding open source music! Thats one of the biggest challenges i've found with bringing content to RUclips. Having good music is so critical.
Thanks for posting. I'm using Power Director 15 and recently started doing as you suggest by starting with the music first. I need to start getting more into color correction/enhancement flying with my new Mavic Pro. Quite a bit different from using footage from my Storm Antigravity with GoPro Hero 4 Silver.
I think I liked the Hero 4 Silver footage color better (straight from the camera), but even with the DJI Zenmuse h3-3d 3-axis gimbal on my GoPro, the video was not as stable as I get with the Mavic. I ended up doing some post-processing stabilization in some shots. I definitely prefer the Mavic video but I think it requires more color correction/enhancement when producing my edited videos. With the Hero 4 Silver I was pretty well limited to 1080p whereas I have been filming in 4K with the Mavic.
Thanks for the tips. These apply not only to the (few) all-drone videos we do but also for full videos we make but with just a few snippets of drone footage. One thing i want to point out though: 100% of the time I have uploaded a song to RUclips as a test to see if ContentID picks it up or not, I got burned. I'll upload the song, wait a few hours and get no ContentID/Copyright notice.. Then after uploading the full video with the song, BOOM, copyright notice. Is it because i upload the test videos as private instead of public or am I just unlucky?
+NotaRubicon Productions That has to be unlucky. It works for me all of the time... that's super weird. Make sure you don't use popular songs that are in Apple Music, Spotify, etc.
Again - great work. Just excellent. Could you describe again the color correction, then save as preset? Then select all & paste? I'm just learning FCP. Thank you
Billy, another excellent instructional video. How do we download the music from the no copyright music sites? Thanks. I went into NoCopyrightSounds....but it is only playing music.
Hi ya Billy, question for you.... how does the video quality look after you export your drone footage from FCP to DVD for example. I want to know if the quality is just as good on other applications than just RUclips. Thanks.
Great advice and all around awesome video! Thank you bro! Hey quick question I also edit on a Mac using FCPX but how do you download these songs straight from RUclips? I've always wanted to do that lol. And keep up the great work! Cheers Greg
Excellent, subbed...I have FCPX , but never really learned how to take advantage of all the great options to edit my vidoes, like how do you leave marker like you did on your audio file in the timeline...great way to edit your audio files with your footage never occured to me to do it this way...thanks
I need Help.... I'm between a soft and hard spot, I have a mavic pro, not 100% sure weather it's the software, When I record some footage edit it via DJI GO 4 app then preview it looks fine. But when I upload say to facebook or play on pc it looks terrible as in footage seems to be laggy, is the dji go 4 app not processing it well? Do I need to use another software e.g adobe premiere
I tried to watch my 4K videos drone I made on my computer windows media would not open it why is that ? If I sent it to Sony Vegas 13 would it automatically show the photoage
cool video for those not familiar with this, only thing is the 'Thumbnail is not important comment' its arguably the most important aspect of a RUclips video if you want it to be noticed.
What were the three sources of music? Suicide Cheap (?), Czech Vibes, and NoCopyright Sound? I listened over and over, but couldn't figure out the first name. Do have the second too correct?
Great videos, Billy! I am now subscribed. I purchased Premiere Elements 15 because I do not think I am quite ready for Premiere Pro. Have you had any experience with that program? Do you think it can do basically the same thing you do with Premiere Pro? I am a fairly experienced user with Lightroom and Photoshop CC, but new to video and drones. I just purchased a Phantom Four Pro Plus. Thanks for any pointers
+Jeffrey Bank Thanks Jeff! Not too familiar with Adobe video editing software, but I am looking to get the creative cloud package for students. Hopefully I can find my way around to make tutorial videos.
Thanks for the suggestion. The only problem I have with that is that now I get Lightroom and Photoshop for $9.99/month (Photographers plan). Adobe wants an additional $20.00/month for Premiere Pro. Maybe I should have said something about the cost previously.
FYI your logo on the thumbnail is completely covered by the time stamp. typically don't wanna put anything of importance on the bottom right of a thumbnail for that reason.
Wish my computer would run the editing software that smoothly. I have to flip back and forth between the actual video and the editor to determine where I want to make my cuts because the editing software is so slow at rendering .
+makjosher I went two times. First time I had no problem, second time the casino security guards asked me to leave. Might want to do it from afar if you know what I mean lol. They weren't pissed that I was flying it around the stacks, just that I was on the property actually flying.
Billy Kyle - You made the point that proper spelling was essential to a viewer. So, how do you spell “Thanks”? LOL. Just busting balls man. I like your stuff and really enjoyed this particular video. I’m a PC guy, so once I find some decent editing software, I’ll adopt a similar process, I’m sure. BTW, what is the track used in this little example clip? Thanks Billy!!! PS - I have RC plane vids on my channel, but they’re exciting on a different level. Like, when you’re taking a dump, kind of level. Peace!
+Jaime Jaramillo You can find some fairly easy to use video editing apps, but it doesn't have the power of a computer and definitely not as many features.
Im just looking to do like 1 to 2 min clips of different vacation spots i go to.. then upload on fb.. will a phone work for that? I have a galaxy. Also would i be able to put music that i listen to on the clips?
Hopefully you're correct, I Googled "Drone and OCNJ" and couldn't find anything that would confirm the current standing regarding drone flights. Last year a few "very nice" officers told me it was illegal to fly a drone in OC, subject to a $200 fine. Did some research and confirmed that in lieu of an FCC rules (which obviously they've issue), they were banning all drone flights based on proximity to the OC airport. Not sure about anything else but I'm not aware they closed the airport. Hopefully you're correct and me, my family and my FB friends can enjoy my video's from OC.
I tried to watch my 4K videos drone I made on my computer windows media would not open it why is that ? If I sent it to Sony Vegas 13 would it automatically show the photage

+Al Diaz-above it all Of course!
Really needed this! Thanks so much man!
+Andrew Faulkner No problem Andrew!
Nice! Thanks. Trying to get back into the editing hobby but needed a reminder on how to be organized about it to save maximum time. Had to google it, but to add a marker in Final Cut Pro, just press M.

+Ian Andrews Thank you Ian!
I see you have a lot of Jersey and eastern PA videos. Great stuff. Jersey born right here. Got to represent!!!
+Ian Andrews Awesome Ian! Some great areas to shoot in
I've followed all of your guidance on camera settings and have started to really see an improvement in my photography style thanks to you. But my videos aren't very good and neither is my editing.

+Russell Schundler You're welcome Russell!
Great video real insight into FXP.
+Mark Williamson Thanks Mark!
Thanks for the tips on finding open source music! Thats one of the biggest challenges i've found with bringing content to RUclips. Having good music is so critical.
+FroOnTheGo Totally agree
Another good source to use is SoundCloud.com and search for music that uses creative commons license.
+FroOnTheGo SoundCloud is too broad for me. I usually look for a general style which these RUclips channels have
Thanks Billy - this was a really helpful video - particularly listening to the music track first and marking the beat/scene changes!
Upload audio track first - sound advice. Excellent video but it would be much improved if you would speak more slowly.
+blusnapper Sorry about the speed!
+Gary Williams No problem Gary!
thanks man this was super helpful just what i was looking for got my DJI Mavic one week ago and need to get editing that footage!
+C14YTN Awesome! Glad to help

+R M 😬
Thanks so much Bill, I need a faster computer to process a great footage like you have.
+MR2DSP No problem
great video!
+Speedy2246 Thanks Speedy!
Any chance you can do a video on color correcting in iMovie? Love your videos man, keep up the great work!
Thanks for posting. I'm using Power Director 15 and recently started doing as you suggest by starting with the music first. I need to start getting more into color correction/enhancement flying with my new Mavic Pro. Quite a bit different from using footage from my Storm Antigravity with GoPro Hero 4 Silver.
+Dave Stredulinsky Do you think the footage looks better?
I think I liked the Hero 4 Silver footage color better (straight from the camera), but even with the DJI Zenmuse h3-3d 3-axis gimbal on my GoPro, the video was not as stable as I get with the Mavic. I ended up doing some post-processing stabilization in some shots. I definitely prefer the Mavic video but I think it requires more color correction/enhancement when producing my edited videos. With the Hero 4 Silver I was pretty well limited to 1080p whereas I have been filming in 4K with the Mavic.
+Dave Stredulinsky 4K looks so good. I'm happy that lots of cameras are coming with the ability to shoot in such a high resolution.
Good video. Always curious how others do their steps.
+QC Drone As am I. Thanks for the comment!
Amazing footages ! What drone did you use at the beggining ? Thanks
Thanks for the tips. These apply not only to the (few) all-drone videos we do but also for full videos we make but with just a few snippets of drone footage. One thing i want to point out though: 100% of the time I have uploaded a song to RUclips as a test to see if ContentID picks it up or not, I got burned.

+NotaRubicon Productions That has to be unlucky. It works for me all of the time... that's super weird. Make sure you don't use popular songs that are in Apple Music, Spotify, etc.
Again - great work. Just excellent. Could you describe again the color correction, then save as preset? Then select all & paste? I'm just learning FCP. Thank you
+West Michigan Drone A full tutorial on color correction will be up in a few days
Billy, another excellent instructional video. How do we download the music from the no copyright music sites? Thanks. I went into NoCopyrightSounds....but it is only playing music.
+Will Lee there are a few ways. The easiest is by using the download link in the description. The alternative method is using a website called keepvid
Hi Billy - assuming you were using P4Pro for the steel mill - did you encounter any handling/behaviour issues flying close?
Hi ya Billy, question for you.... how does the video quality look after you export your drone footage from FCP to DVD for example. I want to know if the quality is just as good on other applications than just RUclips. Thanks.
Great advice and all around awesome video! Thank you bro! Hey quick question I also edit on a Mac using FCPX but how do you download these songs straight from RUclips? I've always wanted to do that lol. And keep up the great work! Cheers
Greg
+Gregory Curtis Using a website called keepvid works.
Gregory Curtis I use Online Video Converter and works just fine. Here its link --> ovc.cm
So to a person just starting, what would be the best tips you can share to help get me started ?
great way to sync video to music
+Natural Love Photography Thanks!
Your really making it easy for me to justify buying fcp!
You gotta do it, I don't regret it one bit
if u cant afford it piratebay
Excellent, subbed...I have FCPX , but never really learned how to take advantage of all the great options to edit my vidoes, like how do you leave marker like you did on your audio file in the timeline...great way to edit your audio files with your footage never occured to me to do it this way...thanks
+Charles Lamoureux Thanks for stopping by Charles! Glad to help
Can you explain breifly how to drop the markers onthe timeline that would help thanks
+Charles Lamoureux Just click m. Super simple
Great , so simple ..thanks. I'm going to source out list of these simple commands...will make my life so much easier..lol
+Charles Lamoureux Love shortcuts
Another winner. How old were you when you started shooting and editing? Thanks!
+Alan Vega I started editing video game footage at around 12 lol. As for drone footage, I started at 19. I'm still 19 hahah
I need Help.... I'm between a soft and hard spot, I have a mavic pro, not 100% sure weather it's the software, When I record some footage edit it via DJI GO 4 app then preview it looks fine.
But when I upload say to facebook or play on pc it looks terrible as in footage seems to be laggy, is the dji go 4 app not processing it well?
Do I need to use another software e.g adobe premiere
maybe silly question but how to download songs from this RUclips channels You mentioned about ...:)????
I tried to watch my 4K videos drone I made on my computer windows media would not open it why is that ? If I sent it to Sony Vegas 13 would it automatically show the photoage
Do you ever get the situation where you upload it with a non-copyrighted song
and that changes after a few weeks/ months?
+Troy Nguyen Yes. That's a real pain
cool video for those not familiar with this, only thing is the 'Thumbnail is not important comment' its arguably the most important aspect of a RUclips video if you want it to be noticed.
+Michael Vettas I find the title to be most important, although the thumbnail is not necessary in the beginning.
What were the three sources of music? Suicide Cheap (?), Czech Vibes, and NoCopyright Sound? I listened over and over, but couldn't figure out the first name. Do have the second too correct?
+Bob Treue Suicde Sheep is the first one. Czech Vibes Sound is the second. Sorry about that Bob
Great videos, Billy! I am now subscribed. I purchased Premiere Elements 15 because I do not think I am quite ready for Premiere Pro. Have you had any experience with that program? Do you think it can do basically the same thing you do with Premiere Pro? I am a fairly experienced user with Lightroom and Photoshop CC, but new to video and drones.

+Jeffrey Bank I have looked into that. The benefit of being a student is that I could get all of the programs for $20. I consider that a steal!
FYI your logo on the thumbnail is completely covered by the time stamp. typically don't wanna put anything of importance on the bottom right of a thumbnail for that reason.
+Jeremy Judkins Thanks for the heads up. Never really paid attention to the mobile side of RUclips.
5:39 Crazy Kaitlyn voicemails, many chance we can hear some of those?
Hey Billy, what program do you use to download tracks off RUclips (Windows), like those pages you just recommended?
Thanks.... and great work!
A website called keepvid. Sometimes in the description of the RUclips video they will have a download link for you. Just have to do a little digging.
Billy Kyle is this what you're speaking of? keepvidi.net
Thanks!
+aciddevil keepvid.com
Got it thanks...jumped on the other site before I checked this one out
Is it worth takig a course for video editing? If so any one in Philly or South Jersey area
what channels can I get some non-copyrighted music from?
+Sam1 Films I listed them in this video. I use Czech Music Sound, NoCopyrightSounds, and SuicideSheeep
Peeped the mcafee knob clip, you go to Tech?
Nah Im located in the Philly area. Just took a trip down
What laptop and software you use for 4K video editing?
MacBook Pro with Final Cut Pro
Used to live just outside ocean city haha..im in Alaska now a little prettier
i need to meet upat Bethlehem Steele in a warmer day.
Wish my computer would run the editing software that smoothly. I have to flip back and forth between the actual video and the editor to determine where I want to make my cuts because the editing software is so slow at rendering .
Which software and computer are you using?
Filmora. It was in my price range since I don't anticipate every making $ off of my work.
Umm Billy I saw the steel stacks do you live in Pa! If so I live in Allentown!
+Dawson Boyle I'm down in West Chester. Small world!
Billy Kyle crazy man!
I was wondering the same thing as I'm in Bethlehem. I'd love to take my mavic around the steel stacks some day!
+makjosher I went two times. First time I had no problem, second time the casino security guards asked me to leave. Might want to do it from afar if you know what I mean lol. They weren't pissed that I was flying it around the stacks, just that I was on the property actually flying.
makjosher awesome man!
Nice video. It often goes too quickly and you could have included linkd to the websites you mentioned.
+Roger Ford Thabks Roger. Which links were you looking for?
Music sites
Billy Kyle - You made the point that proper spelling was essential to a viewer. So, how do you spell “Thanks”? LOL. Just busting balls man. I like your stuff and really enjoyed this particular video. I’m a PC guy, so once I find some decent editing software, I’ll adopt a similar process, I’m sure. BTW, what is the track used in this little example clip? Thanks Billy!!! PS - I have RC plane vids on my channel, but they’re exciting on a different level. Like, when you’re taking a dump, kind of level. Peace!
I don't understand the "uploading music" part. I upload a blank "private" video with my music and then I'll wait if I get some warnings?
+Mr11Nfs Yes exactly. All it has to be is the song with a black background
Ok, thanks! :)
+Mr11Nfs Not a problem
What were the music channels again?
+jeebs9 NoCopyrightSounds, Czech Music Sound, and SuicideSheeep
Billy Kyle Thanks! I had to watch it a few times lol. I want to personal say thank you for all your videos. Thank you!
+jeebs9 No problem! Thank you for watching
which laptop do you use?
+ben_mb MacBook Pro
Billy Kyle which one and which specs - your laptop doesn't lag 4k video at all when editing does it?
i was just thinking about, how u do this... can u just use your phone?
+Jaime Jaramillo You can find some fairly easy to use video editing apps, but it doesn't have the power of a computer and definitely not as many features.
Im just looking to do like 1 to 2 min clips of different vacation spots i go to.. then upload on fb.. will a phone work for that? I have a galaxy. Also would i be able to put music that i listen to on the clips?
Dude, i still havent got my drone yet.. but when i do i would love to link up, maybe you could give me some tips.. i would pay u gor your time
I live in west chester
thanx , Why do you think the last dozen movies I uploaded on RUclips only came out in 1080,Because I used for 4k recordings
Did you export the video from your editing software in 4K?
Billy Kyle I simply took the footage off the SD card from the Drone and downloaded it to RUclips but for some reason it only comes out in 1080p
+Todd The Lone Droner Is it 4k at 60fps?
Billy Kyle I always use 4K 60 frames per second
+Todd The Lone Droner To view that footage you need to be using Chrome. Other browsers don't support RUclips playback at 60fps for 4K yet.
Did you know it's illegal to fly a Drone in Ocean City NJ, there's a $400 fine. On Long Beach Island the fine is $2,000
+Joe Hopper I thought the ban was over as of November?
Hopefully you're correct, I Googled "Drone and OCNJ" and couldn't find anything that would confirm the current standing regarding drone flights. Last year a few "very nice" officers told me it was illegal to fly a drone in OC, subject to a $200 fine. Did some research and confirmed that in lieu of an FCC rules (which obviously they've issue), they were banning all drone flights based on proximity to the OC airport. Not sure about anything else but I'm not aware they closed the airport. Hopefully you're correct and me, my family and my FB friends can enjoy my video's from OC.
