Multipoint cable cam system and method

A method, comprising:

• generating waypoints associated with an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV);
• creating a flight trajectory based upon user-defined keyframes;
• recording keyframes of the user-defined keyframes;
• recording images as the UAV travels between the waypoints;
• and
• generating a virtual cable that is smooth and continuous by stitching a position of the UAV and the keyframes in an order that were defined by the user-defined keyframes so that smooth, continuous, cinematic footage is recorded.

A method, comprising:

• generating waypoints based upon stored GPS data;
• generating a flight path based upon the waypoints;
• storing the flight path;
• transmitting the flight path to an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV);
• flying the UAV along the flight path;
• and
• capturing images or videos at the waypoints to generate captured images.
