Here are some of my favorite drone videos that are vastly popular and viewed on YouTube. The filmmaker uses the Phantom 4 drone. The first video is a montage of video shots throughout Hawaii. The second video is a collection of sequences all shot in California.
I love that the California video gives the viewer a perspective of what it’s like to live by the coast, country, city and suburbs. These are great examples of great drone storytelling. I also like how the filmmaker incorporated music in the background. Hope you enjoy these beautiful videos!

Recently as an avid social media user, I have questioned whether or not I should spend my time on the social media platforms of SnapChat or Instagram Stories more.
Since I am on social media almost 24/7 I have started to ask my friends and do research on why one platform is better or more popular than the other.
As I interviewed 10 of my friends and co-workers at Texas State University, I found out that more people are using Instagram Stories over SnapChat.

After I analyzed the differences in why people are using one platform over the other I have personally decided to invest my time in using Instagram Stories to enhance my personal brand.
