Shanghai, it has become necessary to specify “Old Jing’an” or
“New Jing’an,” as the merger of Jing’an District with Zhabei District
a few years ago has left many residents Jing’an feeling nostalgic, while those
from Zhabei may harbor a sense of discontent. However, this is not the focus of
my discussion; I merely wish to share some aerial footage I captured in New
Jing’an, as there are few drone operators who have specifically filmed in this
area.
Shanghai Railway Station, which included a dedicated aerial shoot at Beijiao
Station. This location holds memories for those Shanghai residents who
experienced the “Up to the Mountains and Down to the Countryside”
movement, and my desire to document it stems from my own unwillingness to
forget.
Station, I noticed the adjacent Pengpu New Village, which was just beginning
its renovation process at that time. The earliest sections of the new village
had already seen the demolition of old houses, and land was being prepared for
development. In the news recently, images have emerged of the newly erected
high-rise buildings that now grace the area.
from the northernmost point of Gonghe New Road, moving southward, which
included capturing the overpasses of the outer ring road. Given that height
restrictions were in place at that time, obtaining a complete view of an
overpass proved challenging.
Gonghe New Road Zhonghuan overpass in its entirety. I recall that many
photographers had previously attempted to scale buildings to photograph this
striking overpass, but even the tallest structures could only yield side views.
Undoubtedly, drones represent the most effective means for capturing such
subjects.

satellite imagery on electronic maps to identify interesting architectural
features in the vicinity This method led to the discovery of the Jing’an Sports
Center.
on that day, which allowed me to complete the shoot under optimal lighting
conditions. My initial filming of the buildings along Gonghe New Road began
from the rooftop adjacent to the inner ring road overpass. However, due to the
long-distance flight, I was hesitant to lower the altitude, resulting in
compositions that did not meet my needs.
frame and ascended directly at a closer range, which ultimately led to the
successful completion of the shoot. Close observation and filming facilitate
better composition and allow for the capture of intricate details, a point I
have elaborated on in another article (#Old Shou Reading Pictures, Episode 156:
Do Aerial Drone Shots Need to Be Taken from Great Heights?).
regarding the content of the Tianmu Road Roundabout in the video. In reality,
during filming, the northern passage had already been equipped with an
overpass, making it necessary to compare the footage taken from the high-rise
buildings on Xinjiang Road for clarity.
capturing the bustling evening rush hour along the north-south elevated road at
the Gonghe New Road and Tianmu Road interchange (a busy segment of Shanghai’s
evening traffic). Clearly, such a filming approach has become increasingly
challenging.
particularly conducive to drone photography, as numerous restrictions hinder
the documentation of noteworthy content. Furthermore, the burgeoning
low-altitude economy, which has been relaxed for certain industries, has encroached
upon many areas, ultimately stifling the potential for drone flights.
