For the 11th video in our "Blank by Drone" series we take you to charming Newport, Rhode Island. We just completed a 14-month roadtrip around the United States in which we filmed many videos. We have plenty more in the works, so if you liked this video, please subscribe to see more.

We were contacted by the Newport tourism office, Discover Newport, and asked if we'd like to make a video of their wonderful town. We are so happy we did. We spent a week in Newport, and between filming (mostly in the mornings and evenings) we were able to spend some time enjoying ourselves around the town. It's such a beautiful place! So a very special 'thank you' goes out to everyone at Discover Newport:

The song for this video is "Heights of Wonder" by Gyom. It was licensed for this video through www.musicbed.com.

The equipment used for this video was mostly the DJI Phantom 2 with a GoPro Hero 4 mounted on a Zenmuse H3-3D gimbal. Some of the shots were filmed with a DJI Phantom 3 Professional, and the twilight shots were filmed with a DJI Inspire 1 Raw...a new system for me which I'm very excited about!

Thanks for watching!

  • I have lived in Newport since 1998. Absolutely beautiful and astounding place. World Class.
  • Rhode Islander here. I agree Newport by far is the best. I tell out of town friends to always visit during late-spring and summer. And always make Newport your no.1 destination.

    And that my friends is why I live in Newport, RI. Beautifully made video that may even bring out a tear or two to those of us who call this beautiful city "home". Frankly, the entire State of Rhode Island is absolutely breathtaking!!!

    Beautiful!  How the Newport of my youth has changed and grown but kept its charm.

    Sailing down to Newport during the summer on Lazybones. Hanging on a mooring for a week at Ida Lewis. Walking downtown. The sights, the smells, the people. There is no substitute.

    This is one of our favorite videos. We watch it a couple times a week. The music is even a perfect choice for these gorgeous images. Watching this video soothes my soul.

    Just beautiful, I haven't been to Newport, R.I. since Spring time, '91, I just remember how beautiful it is there and stayed at a sweet B&B, and saw a few of the Mansion tours and it snowed a little and I loved it all, visited a good friend in Massachusetts and then he took me to see Newport for a few days, I'll never forget that amazing place, I loved M.A. too, all of New England was wonderful! I hope to go back, this time with the real love of my life (not the guy I visited)! Lol 😉😁
