Skylines, centres, housing, business districts and urban development.
Coasts, rivers, farmland, forests and strong seasonal imagery.

Destinations, events, heritage and recognisable regional icons.
The stock-worthy check
Stock-worthy content is technically strong and immediately useful in a professional story.
Stable, sharp and correctly exposed
A clear, recognisable main subject
Commercially useful length and composition
Current, timeless or editorially relevant
Flown safely and legally usable
Accurate metadata, location and context
Think like a footage buyer
Buyers need different perspectives and room for titles, logos or crops. Keep movement calm and give every shot one clear purpose.
Start with a stable establishing shot in which the complete location and horizon are easy to read.
Show how roads, water, buildings or landscape relate to the main subject.
Use lines, symmetry, repetition and structure to highlight a defining feature.
Fly calmly forward, sideways or upward. Avoid random turns and abrupt gimbal movement.
Do not always centre the subject. Leave negative space for a title, logo or alternate crop.
Change height, direction, distance, season, weather and time; avoid near-identical takes.
