Much more than a shiny, new toy for photographers and videographers, drones are an innovative, increasingly popular storytelling tool that journalists and newsrooms are using in a wide variety of ways to expand, augment and supplement traditional writing and reporting.
We’ll have a sample drone on hand to look at, and cover drone use for journalism. We’ll also touch on the minimum requirements needed to pass the commercial drone exam.
