Aerial Photography: oh messy life by Tracy Nystrom

Here are some of the final images along with a short film from the aerial test shoot at Gasworks Park in Seattle, WA a few days ago.  They were taken with a GoPro Hero3: Black Edition mounted to a Zenmuse H3-2D 2-axis Gimbal on a DJI Phantom quadcopter.  This was a really fun little project and was stoked to have my friend Shari come out and help.  She carried my monitor, stand, and other gear around for 2 hours in the balmy 30 F Seattle weather.

A striking and vivid montage from an aerial test shoot at Gasworks Park in Seattle, WA in December 2013.

I just got back from working on a project in LA through most of November and have several spec ads, music videos, and other action sport shoots coming up early next year.  In order to get ready I've been searching Seattle for the some of the coolest known and unknown locations and shooting aerial/ground tests to see how they will match to upcoming projects. Over the next few weeks I'll be throwing up more still and aerial tests.

If you know of a cool location and/or are interested in helping out, definitely let me know.  Currently looking for people who participate in action and adventure sports, thanks!
