CoJMC Journalism graduate and UNL Drone Journalism Lab technologist Ben Kreimer is producing amazing work in Africa this year. Hes part of the African SkyCAM project which is pioneering the use of drones to help journalists in Kenya report on disaster stories by enabling them to film in dangerous or hard-to-access areas. Kreimer says “The main barriers [for drone journalism] are public trust, misconceptions about what a drone is and a lack of legislation, or clear legislation. But these are barriers everywhere. “When most people think of drones, they think of military and surveillance aircraft, not a remote control quadcopter, which looks like a flying iPod that I can set on my hand.” Click on the video below to see some of the amazing drove video Kreimer helped produce via the SkyCAM project at a Kenyan wildlife preserve. youtu.be/uH1gHrKIcyw
