"take after take" isn't a set phrase. You wouldn't find it in a dictionary. It just follows the same pattern as "time after time". In the video, the man saying the phrase the first time is flying a camera drone. He simply means "one take after another".

In one of the Mark Angel comedies they did take after take after take, and Uncle Joe never did get it right. (It didn't help that they put real liquor in his drink. (Rum, I think.))
