The Race Is On

2021

My role:

Director

Client:

DJI

The x-factor for this project was the conceptualization and planning of each shot. I served as the director, and lead a team of 10, to complete all of the filming in just one day. Every single shot was carefully constructed beforehand and the crew executed it perfectly. I enjoyed directing the automotive car shots to make dynamic movements that showed off not only the car but the drone as well. Setting up the storyline of a sports car racing an FPV drone was especially fun. For me, this was my first big automotive piece and I'm really stoked about the result. Can't wait to do more.
