The two-minute video, which was published on the social network Facebook, Břeclavany and people from the surrounding area were immediately thrilled. “I have been thinking about the possibility of flying in the church for a long time – on the one hand, I have been close to the church since I was a child, and it is also one of the largest buildings in Břeclav. In the case of a larger one, it equals a smaller possibility of an impact, “he explained the idea of a non-traditional take-off of the drone, which he drives with the FPV goggles on. In time, he sees the image from the camera directly on the drone.
The main idea was to remind the locals how beautiful the building in Břeclav actually is. “Thousands of people pass by every day, but few were inside. And that’s a shame. In the end, I also wanted to arouse a bit of bustle and noise – after all, it is quite a controversial connection between the drone and the church, “smiled Hotař, who is a co-creator of the sci-fi comedy BřecLIVE.

Getting to shoot the tabernacle inside was easy. “The approval process was absolutely smooth, I simply contacted the pastor Pavel Römer, sent him my idea and several reference videos, I asked her for the opportunity to shoot and we adjusted the date. Done. I would like to thank you once again for this opportunity. I do not take it for granted! ”The author added humbly.
As he admitted, he didn’t think much about the complexity of filming in the church. “Fortunately, I’m already at a milestone when the drone fell on me and crashed into everything around me, so I tuned things like the smoothness of the shot and a kind of logical sequence of flight. Choosing the right flight route is, in my opinion, the absolute basis of such videos. In this case, I flew the same route a total of nineteen times, “Hotař surprised.
Still, he was a little nervous. “Saint Wenceslas is less than thirty years old, it is airy and simply tastefully furnished, there was no danger of destroying the statue for millions, stained glass windows from the fifteenth century or the paving that Charles IV walked on. As may be the case with other temples. It was definitely nervous, but it flew nicely, “the filmmaker revealed with a smile.
He has other ideas up his sleeve. “I am currently preparing to fly through the Crow Mill to capture its condition before reconstruction. And other interesting buildings in the district will not be long in coming, “he said mysteriously.
