Java Post has been invaded by a Ronin!

Topics:   Java Blog

A Ronin has invaded the Java Post Production office! What's a Ronin, you ask? Well, Wikipedia describes a Ronin as a samurai with no lord or master during the feudal period of Japan, between 1185 and 1868. "Ronin" is also the title of a 1998 spy thriller action film, starring Robert De Niro. But for Java Post Aerial Photography, the Ronin is the latest, greatest camera stabilization…

As you probably read in a very recent news post (and if you haven't, you should), we were anxiously awaiting the arrival of our new K130 "Kraken" 8-rotor UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle, although everyone seems to call anything that doesn't have a pilot seat on it a "drone.")

Our wonderful long-time friend and colleague, Crystal de la Sablonniére, is leaving us to further her education and seek new career adventures...as if working in the Saskatchewan film and television industry over the past couple of years wasn't adventure enough. But we digress. The gang all gathered in the Java…
