No fake UFO computer generated movies I know of were made about
1. objects flying in awkward upward slanted position behind trees
2. object seem matching cameras crazy shaking.
3. Separating twigs, branches, leaves and their blurry transparency during all that shaking so they can pasted over the two conveniently created computer models dragged along the screen would be quite a feat.
4. blurry twigs obstructing outline of objects as they move along and there is camera auto zooming & focusing.
5. Points 3.+4. would require advanced techniques - and a team - to do such a video "recording" on computer: and the faking would be still apparent, because of known capabilities of current mainstream digital content creation technology.

These slanted flying pointed-rugby-balls with lights appear to be real. Possibly model planes or balloons. If not man made, i guess this is what ufo-drones look like?

It seems like a legitimate sighting to me. I watched the video a few times and they really look star shaped. It's too bad the camera was shaking so much. Great find!

I'm curious why you think it's a legitimate sighting from that video? Except for a few seconds (out of 2 minutes 21 seconds) the video is nothing but trees. Then, when you do see the craft, they look a lot like helicopters flying in tandem. I really wanted to see something in this video due to both descriptions here, but - I really have to ask what you're seeing that I'm missing?

Well at roughly 1:15 into the video, the object on the right (which flashes the red light) looks to be flying in way that makes it look similar to a lowercase l or at a 90 degree angle - best point of reference I can think of. You can partly catch it at 1:17 and 1:20.

Then at 1:25 it looks like its almost see-sawing, as it looks to switch to about 45 degrees, and when it does the shape looks odd to me.

At 1:26-1:27, its probably at its clearest to see the objects, and it doesn't resemble helicopters to me. The shape is too odd to be one, but I may be mistaken.
 
First thing I thought when I saw this video was balloons. It appears that MUFON agrees with me in their assessment here:

MUFON said:
"I could immediately see behavior that was highly consistent with balloons drifting in the sky just beyond the nearby stand of trees in the video. They are tumbling slowly in no premeditated way, exhibiting drift behavior, and are at the apparent mercy of the wind. The tumbling motion is also highly consistent with observed tumbling motions of typical well balanced Mylar balloons, whereby they will slowly tumble end over end as these were indicating. I could not detect if a string was holding them together but I do believe it is there as I could clearly see one balloon begin to tumble in one direction only to halt and go the other way, in exactly the way a mylar balloon in particular, tethered to another would respond, the string on the tumbler being tugged by the companion balloon and causing it to reverse its tumble direction.

"Upon further examination, I believe I have a resolution to the nature of the objects. They are two Mylar balloons, one of which is a 5 pointed star shape with silver and red coloring.
The red and silver star shaped balloon is on the right side of the pair.

"My assessment is based on one section of the video where at one point the object on the right does two things: First, it tumbles somewhat face-on, revealing that it is a 5 pointed star shape, and second, it glints in the sunlight revealing at least one red stripe amidst the silver background.

"So my assessment, based on this evidence is that these are two mylar balloons, drifting by in the wind. I believe that were it not for the trees obscuring some of their movements, that it would be quite clear that they were balloons."
