Oh, so this is what people are doing with their drones.

Local media company Dystnct and the Matador Network released a video late last month that shows “Seattle From the Air” with the help of drones let loose around the city.

The two camera operators, Drew Hisey and Billy Restey, spent more than three seasons traveling around the Greater Seattle Area capturing stunning shots of multiple Seattle landmarks: Downtown, Pioneer Square, Beacon Hill, Capitol Hill, Belltown, Fremont, Ballard, Kerry Park, Golden Gardens, Lake Union, Lake Washington, Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, University of Washington, Pike Place Market, Seattle Great Wheel, Olympic Sculpture Park, EMP Museum, Seattle Center and KeyArena.

The pair used multiple drones by DJI and the OSMO, and the music is from Seattle artist Grant Eadie, a.k.a Manatee Commune.
