By Deborah Cole


Drones have taken over video production. The challenge, however, is getting a guarantee for quality. By the time you hire a drone video production Florida Keys company, you need an assurance that it will deliver quality services. Here are common mistakes that are leading a lot of people to disappointment.

Failure to ask for training details. Photographers and video technicians are required to have trained on how to manipulate the equipment in order to deliver quality work. Lack of trained technicians means that they will be working on trial and error. Their lack of skills affects the quality of videos you get in return.

Hiring a company without a license, especially one to operate drones is a huge mistake. A lot of restrictions are in place for commercial use of drones because of privacy. Hire professionals who understand these laws and will not get you into trouble. They must also have the license to shoot videos in different locations.

Refusal to scrutinize the technology that the company is using. Quality videos come from cameras and drones that are using the latest technology. Software used in capturing and editing the videos must be the latest in the market. It enables the technicians to make better shots and also take advantage of lighting, different angles, zooming and framing, among other elements. A firm that invests in technology shows that it is ready to deliver quality work.

Assuming that you do not require experienced technicians and firms. Each event is different but the cameras and dynamics of production will rely on experience. Amateurs might fail to pay attention to quality of clips, framing and angles of shots. Other technicians skip parts of the event. You end up with a video that does not capture your expectations.

Failure to demand creative video operators. Whether your film will be captivating or not will depend on the creativity of persons capturing the clips. They should understand how to frame characters, use different angles and play with lighting, among other elements in a creative manner. If their raw materials are captivating, the ultimate video will also be interesting to watch.

Failure to request for references will prove costly in the long run. References are clients who have worked with the company on past projects. Their videos will tell you of the quality of work to expect from the firm you are about to hire.

Accepting the quotation without questioning. Questioning does not mean that you do not trust the company. It is an attempt to get the best value for money. Demand a quotation that is itemized to show the exact services you are receiving.

Working with a single quotation. It is always safer to compare quotations by different companies. Different quotations help you determine the prevailing market price for such a project. It will also help you choose the company that is offering the best value for money. You have a full idea of what to expect from each company.

Do not assume the skills of the editor who will finalize your work. Choose an experienced professional whose videos are quality. Above all, engage a professional company providing a holistic package.
