A system of multi-view imaging of an environment through which a target moves includes pluralities of drones, each drone having a drone camera. A first plurality of drones moves to track target movement, capturing a corresponding first plurality of images of the target's face, making real time determinations of the target's head pose and gaze from the captured images and transmitting the determinations to a second plurality of drones. The second plurality of drones moves to track target movement of the target, with drone camera poses determined at least in part by the head pose and gaze determinations received from the first plurality of drones, in order to capture a second plurality of images of portions of the environment in front of the target. Post-processing of the second plurality of images allows generation of a first-person view representative of a view of the environment seen by the target.
