Bright light that changed color and faded on and off.

I was leaving to walk my dog when I saw what looked like a meteor by its brightness. It did not move like one but did maneuver in the sky with some speed. It was going north to south then stood stationary. It would change from bright white to orange the fade out. Then repeat. As it was faded out, it maneuvered further away when dark then reappear in another spot illuminated again. Looked like it could have been a very large drone, but it's range of travel seemed unlikely to be a personal drone. It eventually remained lit and returned to the north off into the horizon and left my sight heading towards North Shore of LI / Connecticut. I recorded 2 30 second video clips. Also this was 100% not a plane or helicopter. I had full visual of all the plane traffic in the area and they all were at the correct altitudes for arrival into JFK. This light was intense. You can see airplanes and a star in the background of the videos I took.
