Aerial Dreams

Made entirely by a human using Final Cut Pro, Davinci Resolve, and Blender.

A while back, I became lost. I didn't know if I wanted to keep making drone videos, learn animation, pivot entirely and make software, or just stop all together. I sold my camera gear and stopped making/pursuing video.

Months went by and I felt myself slowly wanting to fly again, but I didn't have the capacity, mentally or financially, to sustain it. Then, something clicked. No one watches my videos. No one cares about the quality. No one. Except for me. And in 2026, people REALLY don't care about my videos. Or quality. They'll just consume whatever slop is fed to them. Once that set it, everything made sense.

So, I did it. I picked up a cheap drone for video work again. It isn't anything fancy, hell, it doesn't even have obstacle avoidance. And it can't shoot in LOG. But that's okay. For me, now, that's what I need. No "menus within menus" or settings to enable/tinker with. Just point, and shoot.

Experiences. Aerial Dreams.

See you around.
