Caught Mid-air: 2017 Drone Video Awards Winners

Drone photography has taken over the world, featuring breathtaking footage of our world from a different perspective. Drone photography has also become a genre of it’s own, inspiring AirVūz to host a contest, Drone Video Awards. Users are asked to upload their best videos according to 13 available categories. The content curators then vote and distribute the prizes.

Drone Video of the Year went to Timelab.pro, a video that features aerial footage of Moscow. Not all the winners in the categories had sweeping landscapes, and you’ll be pleasantly surprised at this year’s entries.
