PROJETS PERSO

Galerie Vidéo

Au fil de mes années de pratiques dans le FPV, j’ai toujours souhaité entretenir ma fibre artistique en expérimentant à travers des projets personnels.

Le drone FPV apporte tout un vocabulaire visuel dont son plein potentiel est encore à découvrir.

A travers mes images et mes montages perso, je cherche principalement deux choses :

-Comprendre comment faire communiquer les plans FPV entre eux, avec des cadrages plus classiques, et différents médias tel que l’animation 3D.

-Travailler de nouvelles manières de cadrer en m’entrainant au FPV freestyle; toute la grammaire visuelle des drones FPV ont comme origine cette discipline, donc l’ignorer serait me limiter dans mes cadrages.

Chasing in Assetto Corsa

Thanks to a mod that enables FPV drone flight within the Assetto Corsa driving simulator, it is possible to practice chasing and framing cars.

With its ultra-advanced driving physics and massive library of tracks and vehicles, repurposing the driving simulator for FPV can become an incredibly effective way to storyboard before a shoot, anticipate technical needs, and sync up with the driver to visualize the final result before the shooting day.

With my colleague Platy_FPV behind the wheel, Assetto Corsa serves as a perfect example of the thin line between FPV drones and video games.

Kayoumini in paris Vol.2

In this second volume, I am looking to push our ultra-light drones to their full potential across Paris.

Whether it’s using the analog video feed from a crane to film a Top-Shot, or crafting a custom-made mini analog camera, this series aims to show how superior analog is to HD video systems.

I want to specify that the drones used to capture these images are ultra-light and optimized to film without putting bystanders at risk.

My only goal is to create, not to destroy or oppress.

Analog freestyle around ariane rocket

Analog freestyle in Montréal

During a trip to Montreal to help my sister move her belongings back to France, I brought my analog micro-drone to film my two weeks there.

It is a sort of postcard in which I share my emotions, like this strange nostalgia for a city I am only just discovering.

Kayoumini In Barcelona

During a trip to Barcelona, I decided to start a short creative project mixing travel memories and shots of the Sagrada Familia.

The choice to film exclusively in analog was made for two reasons:

– To have the lightest drone possible to minimize risks
– The beautiful 4:3 analog aesthetic

All the shots were filmed with the Kayoumini.
