- This is part of my behind-the-scenes video series about how I made the short film "Preowned". Here I look at the production and how I shot the movie using an iPhone 13 Pro Max with two very different lenses and camera cages.

Absolutely BRILLIANT 👍🏻 I have the SmallRig cage & Moment lenses
Appreciate your passion for this.
Always being creative, 👍👍
Love the short film look very cinematic and you pull that off with minimal gear very impressive I’m with you DOF so on can be bit too much I don’t have pro res or 10 but can I possibly get an image comparable too what you got with other filmmaking methods
This is absolutely amazing
These are fantastic, I love the BTS stuff, it's invaluable.
Very cool BTS & great results with these setups!👌🏻Thanks for this video!✌🏻
Thanks for watching!
Great breakdown
Thank you so much for sharing!Super creative! Informative demonstration video creation congratulations too! Good day
👍🍀🇭🇺🌞☝️
Bes look I have seen on an iphone, you definitely know what you are doing, thanks a lot for sharing
Great job on the movie and the behind the scenes. Very well explained.
Thanks for watching!
Really enjoyed this film! Very well made.
Thanks!
Blessed dude!!! Really great work
Thanks!
Very informative
Most professional look I’ve seen shot with an iphone. Very nice!
The file size shooting with Prores is massive, do you think it’s possible to achieve a similar look just shooting 10bit logv3? I think the file size is a lot smaller but still yields good quality. Is the quality between prores and 10bit logv3 that noticeable?
The quality is noticeable in a few ways … If you’re doing heavy color grading, visual effects, or shooting in higher contrast, or lower light. Then I’d shoot ProRes. However, you can get great results shooting in 10 bit HEVC for sure. Thanks for watching!
Just a question, I have filmic pro and an iPhone 13 pro max.
Is it possible to lock both the ISO and the shutter speed ?
Yes, whenever you lock the exposure you’re actually locking both. You can go into manual mode and set and lock each, too. However, you still have to adjust them to get the proper exposure since the aperture is fixed. So you can set & lock the shutter to 1/48, but then you use ISO to get correct exposure, then lock it. A best practice is to keep the ISO low - under 100 if at all possible.
Why you didn’t use the beast grip tele instead of the moment? 🤔
I’m about to buy lenses por my iPhone 13 pro what brand do you recommend?
Great video 🤙🏼
Unfortunately their V2 telly doesn’t work properly with the 13 pro max. I believe they’re working on a V3 though. That lens is great otherwise for all previous phones. Overall I’ve been happy with Moment mainly because of their ease-of-use and they all seem to work pretty well with a variety of phones. But I do really like Beastgrip as well, but right now mainly the anamorphic V2 with the 13 PM. Thanks for watching!
So the Moment lenses don’t attach to the Smallrig cage? Just getting into iPhone filming with me 13 pro max with that Smallrig cage and want to get a 58mm lens
Yes, they do attach directly to it. The Beastgrip lenses do not however.
I have Beastgrip anamorphic 1.55 and the Kenko lens. I’m so confused which one to get for vlogging using an iPhone. Any thoughts?
I personally would use just the standard wide angle not the anamorphic for vlogging. That 1.55x anamorphic gives you a super wide screen look and on RUclips the standard screen is actually 16 x 9.
What did you do for sound? I’m trying to start my first short and I wanna shoot it all on iPhone - but I’m having trouble with the sound part as far using an attached shotgun mic and/or using a boom mic. And how to get the sound to register into the iPhone
I did double system, so I recorded into a Zoom recorder and then just with the iPhone mic as reference and synced in post. But you can definitely record directly into your phone too if you want - but don’t use a shotgun on camera as it’ll be too far away. I actually have an entire course about this topic if you’re interested…. academy.iphoneographers.tv/p/the-complete-guide-to-smartphone-audio-recording
I want to send you a ton of respect! The content is really good and it's helping me make decisions and questions things in my own work. I really want to ask you -- I see a lot of videos that an iPhone can shoot like a mirrorless or dslr camera or some semi-pro/pro camera... what I am interested in is the "why?". I am super curious from your experienced iPhone use, etc (and this channel) -- in your opinion, what's the why? I mean I see the benefit of being lighter, being able to put a phone somewhere a full rig can't go, or doing something as a livestream/social media in the moment. Just trying to understand how someone on your level would offer this on a professional/charge-people-for-money basis? I would love to understand better. Looking forward to your reply.
On professional client work I primarily use phones as a crash cam or a B camera, not the main camera. I like doing gimbal shots on phones because they’re much easier to handle. But for my own professional projects including RUclips I incorporate phones as the A camera routinely. It really just depends on what I’m doing. Lots of news organizations use phones for broadcast TV, especially in Europe and Australia. So they are ready for prime time in many cases. So for me it’s not an either or situation, it depends on what I’m doing. But today you can get really good results with the latest greatest generation of phones. Hope that makes sense. Thanks for watching!
@@iphoneographers okay - that makes sense. just wondering if it comes into the figuring of a project specs (with clients) delineation and service. Cool.
One thing that I did not see in this otherwise great video is the use of a lens shade when shooting outdoors. Do you use one and if so which one?One thing that I did not see in this otherwise great video is the use of a lens shade when shooting outdoors. Do you use one and if so which one?
Did not need one on this particular day. it was overcast and what I typically do is crank up the brightness on the screen too. But I do use them in the one I typically recommend is for a Moondog labs… ruclips.net/video/UX8t-XXAjvQ/видео.html. Or you can create your own with gaff tape and black foil.
What did you use to shoot this behind the scenes?
Mainly an iPhone 11 Pro Max. But a few Sony a7siii shots mixed in there, too.
what’s that mic setup you have? how does that work when connecting it to your iphone while also being able to use headphones
Here just using the phone mic as reference sound, so the actual audio was recorded double system, meaning externally to a Zoom field recorder and then synced in post.
@@iphoneographers sorry i meant like with the boom mic and stuff you have connected through the adaptor? i’ve been trying to find that sort of equipment for my iphone but i cant seem to find what works and im not sure what i need to get that kind of setup
@CrispDURAC3LL Oh ok. No audio gear was actually connected to the phone, just to be clear. It was all recorded externally. I just used the built-in mic as reference to then sync it in post production with the external sound. But there we use a Zoom H6 recorder and a Rode NTG4+ shotgun mic… amzn.to/48D8nYM
Hope that answers your question.
Would you recommend freewell nd filters?
Definitely, use them all the time. They’re probably my favorite “affordable“ filters. Those and Moment are also good. Polar Pro are probably the best but they’re also the most expensive.
Why did you tape the Tele lens?
To hold the filter mount ruclips.net/video/ZksswE7gIsY/видео.html
I can’t believe that you were able to cast Nick Cage for you film!!! 😂
His stunt double. ;)
Tell me how many frames you used when shooting!?
24
@@iphoneographers Thanks for your reply! 👍
Behind scenes have more views than the original short film
That’s almost always the case on RUclips. 🤷🏼♂️
phones are ok IF lighting is good, after that dynamic range sucks even for the latest.
The problem isn’t really DR in low light, it’s noise. If they get improve that with a larger sensor and/or computational imaging it would be great.
@@iphoneographers can't argue with that! . . Thanks for the great videos.
