Drones Cinematography and Construction, What Has Changed
No doubt, construction industry has been around a long time, but drone cinematography is a rather new concept. One thing that we must accept however is, drone cinematography is winning many hearts every day. In fact the construction industry has so much embraced drones that today it is not uncommon to see drones hitting the skies in a new construction site. But how has drones really improved the construction industry?
- First drones have really improved land surveying. Unlike the past few years when land surveying was an unending process, today there is no need to lease multiple contractors and equipments on any uncharted territories, no! Drones can now be used to get much needed details regarding landscaping and surrounding areas. This has greatly reduced on manpower costs, equipment use, and instead helped contractors to get well informed estimates.
- Drones have also enhanced marketing and promotions of many construction projects. For instance, the use of aerial films, video shots, and land maps, has been created by many savvy companies using the new drone technology; along with ideal scale models, and 3D rendering of many completed projects. Sky high shots, multiple angle shots, and many more tricks have been used to help potential investors to visualize the transformation of any barren land.
- Additionally drones haven’t just been used for commercial film production, no! Today drones have been incorporated to highlight the safety and awesome working conditions of many construction workers. This has greatly improved the safety how construction workers have been treated and their working environments, and in turn helped to prevent serious injuries. In fact any construction company that makes the use of drones on their construction sites is today eligible to insurance discountsJ.
- But that’s not all. For anyone who intends to give their clients a more detailed report on how their construction job is progressing, using drones to hit a few corners is a great option. In fact professional contractors will use drones to save time and show project owners the state of their project. However at this point drones can also impede the progress of the project if they keep showing up on sites. Use it routinely and more so when workers are not on site.
- Finally in case you have multiple job sites and feel that moving around can monitoring them can be tough, you can always use drones. Drones will save you time, energy, and above all allow you to monitor all these sites at a single sitting. In fact, the pilot can provide you with clear views of specific sites as well as general aerial shots. But for large scale contractors using UAV’s helps to keep things running smoothly, safely, and on schedule.
You could also use drones to monitor your workers, do a quick construction inspection, and much more. With this I rest my case and I believe that drones have actually improved the construction industry. Use drones with licensed pilots and also certified machines. There are rules to follow so keep an eye out there.
