    If you've dreamed of starting a RUclips channel but haven't got an expensive camera and gear yet, this video's for you. We talk over my top tips for filming quality videos with your iPhone / Android using the app Filmic Pro. The audio is probably the most important part - I'd highly recommend using the Rode VideoMicro to start with, and you can always graduate to an external audio setup (like I have) later on. Good luck with your journey!

    Great video, I’ve recently started using my iPad Pro (new one has studio mic’s built in). Audio quality is arguably better than when I record with my rode mic... just something to think about especially if future iPhones have similar quality mic’s (I’m currently using an older XR) and it’s not as good as my ipad

  • @nickhiggsthesinger

    Great step by step guide. I've been trying to use a couple of different smartphones (an old Samsung and a new Samsung) and it's surprisingly good, although Filmic Pro looks like it takes things to the next level. If I can figure out the camera setup on my Android phone I'd be more than happy with the quality of the video even without spending £££ on super fancy cameras.

    It's funny. When I first started youtube a few years ago, I threw money at it, Great cameras, Lenses, and sound gear. Three or four years later I still have all my very professional gear but for my youtube videos, I now use the DJI mobile 3 with an iPhone XS for filming all my videos, and my talking head videos. I use my pro gear for pro work but for youtube, the iPhone is just perfect. I also record my audio separate and sync in Imovie. I have gone full circle from the madness of buying all pro gear back to using my iPhone. I use Filmic pro as the recording app.
