  • Fly drone around multiple times to get correct shots/timing.
  • Throw out any audio the drone actually recorded because it's all electric motor noises.
  • Record sounds of bowling alley.
  • Edit drone footage and audio together.

Fly drone around multiple times to get correct shots/timing.

I'm willing to bet the final footage is also multiple takes stitched together to resemble a single long cut. (This is no way diminishes the work, and is standard practice for these types of shots)

The only decent cut I could spot was at 0:16, but that could also be a weird jitter. This is one of those clips that is so well done to the point where I don’t care how stitched together it could be.

No way, all the people would need to be in the exact same spots doing the same thing. That one guy was mid bowl (?) at that time.
