Congrats to our February Drone Video of the Month winner, chrisxgxc with his film Heads Up! Filmed in Woodward, Oklahoma, Chris and his co-worker Brian Cates came up with the idea for this ironic short film. The actor in the video, Shain Rutz, is a local UPS driver. Chris used the Autel Evo for the aerial footage and a DJI Phantom 4 for the prop drone. He also did all the visual effects himself and is taking home $500 for his win! And don't worry, Chris says "No person or drone was harmed in the making of this film." "Heads Up is a humorous, ironic short film written to utilize the unique perspective offered by drones. I wanted to create a film with no dialogue that was similar to a Pixar short or an old silent film comedy. Drones are amazing tools that can help tell all kinds of stories and can even be part of the stories themselves. I am excited to create and tell more stories with drones!" - chrisxgxc "This video was shot in Woodward, OK. Woodward is a small town of 12-15k people in Northwest Oklahoma. It has a history of being a wild west town with gun fights and cowboys. In fact, Temple Houston, gunfighting lawyer and son of Sam Houston is a huge part of that history." - chrisxgxc Chris is a 2nd Annual Drone Video Awards winner.
