400 drone - drone show

This week I've done quite a few posts about the See Monster, hopefully you're not bored to death about it yet!!! In my last post I showed you some photos of the amazing drone show, but to be honest the photos don't do the show justice at all. During the final show, I decided to make a video of the drone show so you can view it (virtually) live to experience this awesome event.

In the afternoon, I went down to the beach where the drone show was to be held. I wanted to take some photos and other clips for my video. And the most important thing was that I managed to get exclusive access to the back stage where the drones are laid out on the platform on the beach ready to take off. Normally the team are very busy just before the show, but Sophie from the organizers was really great and squeezed out some valuable time to show me around. I was able to get up close and personal to the 400 drones. If you haven't see 400 drones before, this is what it looks like. Isn't it so ultra cool!!!

Later on in the evening, I went down a bit earlier than usual to bag a good spot to take my video. It was already jam packed with people. The event organisers reckons around 30 thousand people have attended the previous two shows. Not bad for our town which only has around 90 thousand population!!!

I passed by the drones again, they were already lit up ready to start the show.

Luckily I managed to get a great spot right by the sea front where I was able to sit on the wall above the beach. That made it a lot easier for me to hold my camera still for 10 minutes and to get better video quality, and to not have any people's heads moving in front of me.

Now all that's left if for you to watch the video. I hope you enjoy it. Would love to know what you think!
