Gino, kudos to you. This is a clear example of how listening closely, and attentively can make a huge difference. Your listening skills are at the core of what sets you apart from the competition.

Pricing. In case anyone might be interested, we can team up to develop your own unique spreadsheets. If you want a cost of materials spreadsheet, we can develop that. This kind of spreadsheet is helpful when you have projects that require many components. If you want a profit spreadsheet, we can...

Texas_Signmaker I am in the early stages of working on five different sign video projects. Two of those projects have come through Signs101 connections. Thanks for asking.

To my fellow Signs101 members, if you have been reading this Thread and if you have some small interest in the idea of making a drone video, please feel free to start a conversation with me. You can do it right here in this Thread, or with a DM, or email. No obligation, just explore and discover...

KatePhillips If any of your current art projects might make an interesting drone video, let's have a short conversation to see if we should develop it.

Rocco G If you have a current sign project that has the potential of being an interesting drone video, let's take the next small step and have a discovery-style conversation.

Gino Got it. Thank you.

Gino Yes, it is quite interesting the Paul is in that business. I have begun the process to become a drone pilot. In the meantime, here in the metro Bay Area, my mentor is licensed. In other metro areas, I will hire a licensed pilot. You are correct. The idea of making a drone video of a sign...

Precision I appreciate your words of encouragement. Thank you.

If you have some curious interest in the idea of making a sign project video, the whole process can be quite simple. Let's say you are doing an install. At the right time, you can bring me along via Zoom. Mount your iPhone on a tripod. We can talk together about what is going on. Or, let's say...

Signs101Admin As you so correctly put it, "FAA has many rules and regulations and you can't just go by a drone and start taking pictures." For me, if I am the producer of a sign project video, I would work with a licensed drone pilot to take the aerial video. Then I would splice/edit it into the...

Gino Welcome to the conversation. The drone idea is something I hope to develop into a profitable business. Not that I actually take the drone video, but more that I function as the producer/director of the complete video story. Anyone with a smartphone can take a video. The drone approach...

Texas_Signmaker How did you guess? No. My lessons have been completed. Anyway, I just think using a drone video would be an interesting way to tell a sign project story. And, I would like to get as much practice using my newly acquired skills. The day will come when I will decide it is time to...

Texas_Signmaker Got it.

ikarasu I appreciate your input. Think about using your drone on a sign project. Then, think about bringing me into the project to put together an interesting video story. I could use the practice.

Texas_Signmaker and Val47 I hope you find a sign project to make an aerial video. Feel free to bring me on the team to create the video story, including an appropriate voice-over.

Notarealsignguy Got it. The extra-long selfie stick might be an easier option, in some cases, than a drone. The idea is to give a different angle from street level.

Notarealsignguy Thank you for the details. I was just imagining the use of a 12' selfie stick to capture some interesting features of your building and property from a different level than just street level.

I am still learning about how to get a video here. This is an example of what my first video mentor does in his work. Just to give you a hint of what kind of aerial video idea I thinking about. (Note, the original is a three-minute video. I have trimmed it down to just show the kind of aerial...
