What is Color Grading?
Color grading is the process of adjusting the colors in video footage and photos to achieve a specific look, mood, or tone. It's an art form that requires a keen eye for detail and a deep understanding of color theory.
Why Color Grading Matters
Enhancing Visual Appeal
Color grading makes ordinary footage look extraordinary. By adjusting the hues, saturation, and contrast, a skilled colorist can bring out the best in each frame. This enhancement can:
Make Colors Pop: Vivid, well-balanced colors can make footage more eye-catching and engaging.
Highlight Details: Proper color grading emphasizes important elements in the scene, drawing viewers' attention to key areas.
Create Depth: Adjusting shadows and highlights can add dimension and depth to the footage, making it more visually interesting.

Filming Steeples with a Drone
We recently played a role in the launch of the first drone based artist in the music business with new artist, Sky Hymnal. Filming steeples with a drone is something we love to do in our travels. Each steeple has a unique personality and beauty which we find intriguing. Sky Hymnal pairs our drone footage with instrumental ambient guitar recordings of popular traditional hymns. We have more projects in the works with Sky Hymnal and we will share as they are released.
Tips for Filming Downtown Nashville With A Drone
Nashville Skyline
For new drone pilots in Tennessee, flying and filming downtown Nashville tops the bucket list for locations to capture drone video and drone photography. However, air space regulations, state and local restrictions and tall buildings present challenges making filming downtown Nashville with a drone a bit intimidating.
So what is the best way to tackle the challenge?
First of all, practicing one’s drone flying skills for many hours in an open space is a must. Before attempting to navigate the Nashville skyline, it would be wise to hone those flying skills in less intimidating locations. Those little joy sticks can help navigate majestically or they can crash your drone. Hours of practice will build muscle memory prove crucial to a safe flight.
Nashville Drone Co recommends taking a visual observer on your downtown Nashville drone adventure. When flying in an urban landscape, one can lose sight of a drone very easily. Some of our pilots at Nashville Drone Co prefer to focus on the controller screen in order to see what they are filming while staying in constant communication with a visual observer alerting them to surroundings and people wandering into the area. Power lines, light poles and buildings come into play when flying at lower altitudes and can make take off and landing a bit tricky. Music City also offers birds to contend with. Our drones are quite often attacked by flocks of birds while flying downtown Nashville. The sound of a drone apparently attracts and irritates birds so a visual observer can give warning if the birds become aggressive. we prefer not to have our drones crash like the government drone in recent news which was taken down by a bald eagle.
Knowing what air space you are in and knowing the state and local restrictions are crucial. While most of Downtown Nashville is in G airspace, it sits near the edge of C airspace spilling over from Nashville airport. Downtown Nashville is scattered with metro parks which are prohibited spaces for flying drones. Both sides of the Cumberland river contain metro parks that stretch the most of the length of downtown, so finding a legal place to launch from takes a little planning.
And lastly, but most important is avoiding flying over people. We’ve found the best way to avoid people is to fly early mornings. Early morning also offers the best light for filming. Civil Twilight can work also but we find way less people moving around Nashville early in the morning.
