Aerial video – San Francisco from Jason Lam on Vimeo.
With the ability to fly super close to the ground and surrounding objects, this really does provide a unique feel, like a free-floating crane or steady-cam. Pretty hot.
Jason Lam makes these videos for a company called SkyShutter, using “a camera equipped with ‘gyro-stabilized remote-controlled gimbals,’ along with a live streaming video connection.”
I just wish they’d put a camera on this guy’s helicopter!
