How cool was it to see Casey Neistat championing smartphone filmmaking? Fit the topic perfectly, too. That and of course Steven Soderbergh using an iPhone to make his feature film "Unsane"... and these guys can afford whatever gear they want. Don't wait to create!
Question about filming on a cellphone, how do you deal with super small sensor sizes, and deep DOF? I'm sure its much harder to get a good DOF and have good lens control with a cellphone
Also can smartphones have ND or UV filters?? Would help with the blown out sky on some of your vids
To get some shallow DOF you can use the Tele lens, 3rd party Tele lenses, ND filters or Beastgrip even makes a DOF adapter to attach traditional photo/video lenses. You can also get the subject closer to the lens to get some nice bokeh.
We’re spoiled today with all the larger sensor cameras. Wasn’t too long ago that most cameras we all used were 1/3” CCDs, unless you were shooting film. So long story short, you can get shallow DOF looks, but on wider shots and most non telephoto shots everything will typically be in focus.
Definitely. Adding an ND filter is one of the number one things we recommend! We have several videos on our channel on using ND filters. Here’s a review we just did ruclips.net/video/TY69zFw5ORA/видео.html. And there’s more so just search our channel if you’re interested. Thanks for watching!
Cool man, thanks for the replies. Pretty interesting!
I watched this video almost about a year ago and it really changed my attitude. I always felt that I should only make a film if it's perfect. Since then I have made a bunch of random films and have really gotten good practice from that and now I am getting paid to make videos for people. Soon I will be making my next attempt at a narrative short film, I hope it will turn out great.
Hey that’s awesome! Congrats. And that’s definitely the idea. Don’t wait to create. :) Best of luck with your future projects and thanks for sharing your story!
That's so nice, you're really inspirational! :)
I love it when people put creativity before buying gear. Thanks for the inspiration.
Indeed I am with you on that! Ask I always say, if you heard a noise outside right now, and ran outside with your phone and filmed a UFO on your lawn, I guarantee nobody would be talking about your gear... Only the content! 🎯🎥

Hahahaha 😂🤣
The best, or first RUclips video in years, perhaps both, that not only did I watch all the way through without growing disinterest, but that was truly and actually educational, detailed, and extremely helpful. I had all my questions answered without needing to dig and search further on RUclips or the internet. That NEVER happens. Your willingness to share your knowledge without hesitation or keeping secrets is the best gift I’ve received online in a decade. It’s exactly what I needed, when I needed it. Awesome video. Thanks!
Wow, glad you liked it! Thanks for watching and sharing your feedback. We’ll try and create more like this. :)
Just watched all of your 20 films in 20 days on a binge watch. Loved the project. You've given me some great ideas and motivation. Thank you!
Awesome! Thanks for watching and commenting. That’s what we like to hear. Hope it helps and look forward to seeing what you create!
Without *script* we can't make a single Film. Even we have 4k camera.
Absolutely
@Punch Down King ohoooooo.. keep it up. Wow..
Mind. Blown. This is just what I was looking for and needed. So well done! Can’t wait to watch more!
Thanks! Glad you liked it.
THIS has taught me A LOT of new things. Nicely Done.
Can't wait to try this idea to film with... Thanks for posting this!
Amazing and inspiring video! I own LOTS of filming equipment, but due to traveling extensively have been searching for the absolute minimalist shooting setup. Im very excited about where cellphones are going with the future of filming, and looking forward to adapting to it rather than fighting to keep spending 10's of thousands on new gear :)
Thanks! Minimalism is a great aspect of mobile filmmaking, especially when traveling. Lots of interesting & exciting developments on the horizon for sure in smartphone tech. All the gadgets do add up! :)
So inspirational and a good kick in the ass to just go and film stuff 👍🏻
Love the video! Your insight made me a subscriber and I hit that bell so I can be on the notification squad. Keep up the great work.
Awesome, thank you!
I love the tips on using the flat colour profile in Filmic Pro! I've managed to make some films on my own with that feature and really see how it gives the footage more dynamic range. However, I think you could also consider sharing how to focus pull using Filmic Pro. I think that's one of the coolest features of the app, being able to manually adjust focus. Cheers!
Yes focus pulling is pretty cool too! We have other videos on our channel looking at that as well. :) Thanks for watching!
G'Day mate, I am in the process of making my very first video to post on my RUclips channel using my second-hand mighty Mavic Pro drone 7& iPhone 7-plus. I am slowly adding to my kit (on a low budget pension) so all the more to be as resourceful as I can. Watching good folk such as yourself helps me learn how to & I truly thank you for that. I have subbed & a big thumbs up man. I am currently learning how best to use Filmic Pro on my phone to film & LumaFusion to edit on my iPad Air. My note to you: The meaning of life is.... "To continuously seek JOY in all you think, say & do" Cheers from Spike (Central Wheatbelt Western Australia)
This video editing is giving me a new sensation ♨️
Wow! Amazing stuff and great tips. Thank you!
The is one of the most helpful videos I’ve even. Thank you so much.
Actually did like it, was informative. Have filmic pro, haven't used it to its full potential
Wow. Best video on RUclips I have watched this year! Thanks so much.
Thanks! Glad you liked it.
I must say, very impressed and inspirational video. As a newbie to all this, this was definitely nice to watch.
Thanks! Hope it helps. Look forward to seeing some of your work in the future. 👍🏻
Hey!
Great work you do! Thanks!
I have an issue not related to this video but with the choppy video stream using AirPlay, have you ever solved it? From my iPhone to my LG C9 TV with airplay, using mirroring or sharing only the clip alone it still doesn’t plays smoothly…
Best 💪🏼😉
Thanks for your videos! It’s challenging me to do 20 in 20 days. Keep those tutorial coming!
Thanks, will do! And good luck on your challenge... share some work when you’re ready!
I'm using xiaomi redmi note 8 but this content is gold. Gear doesn't matter. I edited using davinci the end almost same as shoot with my 650d dslr. The phone now days surprisingly good. And filmic pro surprisingly good apps for to this
It sure taught me many things and also inspirational on filming without the use of expensive gadgets.
Dang y’all guys are so awesome. Keep up the hard work and remember quality is key
Thanks! Keep on keeping on and always striving for quality. 🎥👍🏻
hello there, I use filmic delog lut for the log footage, but how will it work for flat footage? I'm on Android
filmic pro looks like an ultra sick app, thanks for the heads up on the need to pay double the amount for filmic cinematography app... I didnt know that about Steven Soderbergh and it kind of its nuts now the power in your pocket! the main thing holding me back from developing my own youtube channel is how to tell decent stories over the long term...
Definitely. The storytelling is the most important thing, but no time like the present to get started. 👍🏻
Great video! I love everything about this channel, it helps me a lot
Thanks for watching! Glad to hear it’s helpful. 👍🏻
im so, so inspired!!! thank you for this 🌟👍🏻👏🏻
Omg bro we greatly appreciate this video, we been making film Content for a long time and we were having a hard time with trying to make our content phenomenal.
That makes me wannah make a film of my own... great video!!
Great video guys! Very inspiring
Which one of these phone mounts, tripods or selfie sticks works and works great without removing your otter box. I have yet to see a video that demonstrates this.
Amazing video and I'm very excited to start shooting a lot or all my stuff on my phone.
Awesome! Best of luck. Thanks for watching!
Nicely done! I learned allot! Thank you!
Very cool! Thanks for the video!
Trying to improve my home made fitness videos using your tips
Am learning a lot.
Your commentary is really top class, you deserve to be on a certain documentary lol
Still can't believe how Filmic Pro / Moment haven't sponsored you guys! Haha seriously is not rocket science but you guys nail smartphone tutorials on RUclips.
Thanks! That would be cool. :)
Great video! Looking fwd for your next video!
Thanks for watching!
I’m still learning filmic pro settings can you just leave iso and shutter alone if you got proper room lightning and shooting outside seems like when i adjust it get image lil darker or lighter than I want is there a auto exposure & focus plus AWB has to be red selected right while you shooting video thanks
You can just lock them after they auto expose, but it’s best to use manual to dial it in. And you definitely lock AWB for best results (to red).
How can we purchase this app from app store please an video on it.
Im a beginner but this tutorial makes me feel like a pro ❤️
This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks guys. 🙌
Thanks for watching!
Kindly make a video discribing green screen tracking points and how they can be used
Thanks
Thanks for this posting. I'm just starting out making videos and for now, plan to only use smartphone(s) as my main camera. I see you're in the Dallas area, maybe we can do a collab sometime, as I'm just north of you in Plano.
*_Very motivational video...Thank you._*
Love your channel guys! I’m inspired :)
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
Fantastic video! Instead of using a tripod, why not just use a smooth 4? I can't figure out why a tripod is better in some situations or is it? Thanks for your feedback
Gimbals can be great and these days are affordable and easy to use. So personal choice really. The only thing is it is sometimes hard to get a completely locked-off shot with a gimbal unless you set it down. But definitely go for it! Thanks for watching!
I’m learning a lot from you guys! 👌
i have aquestion about filmic pro, can i record video at 1seg fps? for instance for a fluid timelapse? with nice motion blur, or for astro photo-videography?
Yes there’s an interval mode for timelapse. It shoots video not stills, but works well. Probably wouldn’t be ideal for astro stuff though.
I don't have the FiLMic Pro app yet but I am wondering if you can focus pull by setting focal point, locking and then unlocking, set new focal point and then lock again. It would be clumsy compared to a focus ring on a camera but I am wondering if it can be done. I think the DJI Osmo Mobile you can manually adjust focus with a button, that might help.
Yes you can. We actually did a video on it... ruclips.net/video/5hxCmH9cZ8M/видео.html
Awesome video guys :)
How do you get a LOG or Flat Profile for 60/120 fps. As you know you can't select either profiles Filmic Pro. I'll be very grateful for a response. Thanks
You can do 60FPS in HD. Otherwise you can’t use it with HFR currently. Heat issues are what we’ve been told, so hopefully will work on future gen devices.
Super inspiring. Thank you!
Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching!
Great channel folks. I want to try and film one a month, starting January 2019. Thank you for the inspiration. 🚀
Awesome! Thanks for commenting and watching. 👍🏻
So you say to set your shutter speed at 48 so it's double the shutter speed. But when you set filmic pro or 120 FPS capture (as you suggest with 24 FPS playback) then it won't allow the shutter speed to go any lower than 120 FPS. I tried this with 60 FPS capture and 24 FPS playback.
Yeah you would want to double your frame rate to equal the shutter if possible for ideal motion blur. If you’re in lower light though it may not do it because shooting slow motion/higher frame rate takes more light.
I have all those Accessories. I should start to follow up all those presets mentioned here and share the result. Thank you for the great video and information
Definitely! Go for it. Thanks for watching!
Great video!!
Ok, sooo, I've been using my iPhone until I bought a Canon m50. The iPhone has this issue with 'Variable Fram Rate' where the audio doesn't match the video when bringing shots into Premiere. I saw that I can use HandBrake but it doesn't always work. Couldn't take it anymore.
Interesting. Have never had that problem with audio sync. Thanks for the heads up.
Awesome stuff! Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
cool! i like this ! i wanted to do this right now and start film making through phones.. and oh. btw do you have a tutorial on how to have a stabilize video shot using phone? and how to shoot a smooth slow motion using phone.. ?
Good deal, thanks! Hope it helps you. We have lots of different videos on our channel pertaining to these topics. Stabilizing we would probably use a gimbal... And slomo we touched on in this video about 120FPS, but we have some others too. Search on our main channel page and hopefully you can find what you’re looking for! Feel free to ask us more questions, too.
I wish this technology was around when I went to film school and had to edit on 16 millimeter film. Argh! Digital has made it so much easier. Great video. Question: what audio equipment do u recommend? Thx
Thanks! And we hear you! Filmmakers today have so many great resources at their fingertips that just a few years ago we could’ve only dreamed of... For audio we really like the RODE VideoMicro. It’s a small camera mounted shotgun mic that works well with smartphones and sounds surprisingly great. We highlight it in our Wish List videos if you’d like to see it in action. For lav style mics we like the Sennheiser ClipMic Digital. We reviewed that mic and there’s a video on our channel as well. Lastly, we sometimes use traditional shotgun mics and double system sound (like with a Zoom recorder) and just use the phone for video.
Great video thank you very much. As a novice I will be pleased if I can shoot 1 film in 20 days, but only doing it for my own enjoyment. Can I ask one thing about Filmicpro. Can you use it to take still photos as well as video? I currently use Osmo mobile 2 gimbal, which I like with DJI app for video and open camera for stills. Open camera is much better than DJI app, in my opinion, but is not integrated with Osmo mobile 2 while Filmic Pro is.
FiLMiC Pro is a video camera app only. You cannot do stills unless you take a still from a 4K image. Moment Pro Camera app you can do both. But FP is all about video and it’s a very feature rich app.
So after playing around with this app I'm impressed. Almost perfect except for a couple of thing. My phone is capable of shooting at 1080p @60 fps with its stock camera. When I select 1080p in Filmic it doesn't allow me to select 60fps. Also when I shoot a 4k video and export it to the stock media player on my phone it just won't play it.
Every phone is a bit different and a lot depends on the device. On iPhone you get 4K 60fps and in 1080 you can do 240fps. Not sure why the 4K wouldn’t play unless your phone doesn’t support that resolution - or it could be the higher bit rate or MPEG encoding.
I also shot with filmic pro and the log kit on my iPhone X and have it attached to a DJI Osmo mobile 2 and let me tell you something when you have everything dialed in and have the colors and lighting set it looks like straight out of a multi million dollar production for example shooting a scene were a character gets lost in the forest and tries to find a way out you can give it a legit horror movie look I showed it to some coworkers and they couldn’t believe it was shot on the phone 👍🏻😄 of course I have to improve some things like movement but when you like what you see you’re on a good way
So, I'm filming in Flat mode but I dont have the possibility to colorgrade it on a pc. I do everything on my phone. Is there a possibility to colorgrade with the phone ? The FX on Kinemaster are bad... Thanks
LumaFusion is great. It’s iOS only though if you’re on Android. VSCO has a video option for grading too.
I'm curious, why do you shoot LOG outdoors and FLAT in? Is there really that big of a difference between the two formats?
It’s all about video noise. In lower light with a smaller sensor you get more noise - And shooting log will increase the noise.
Such a good video!🔥
Thank you! Glad you like it. 👍🏻
Thank you! Very useful :)
my phone only seems to film at 24fps in 720p at 1080p it films 10fps :(
Really enjoyed your video cheers
Thanks!
I'm not sure if you will be answering comments still on this post but I am wondering if you have any info on shooting 60fps in FILMIC Pro on the iPhone XS. As far as I know the new iPhone XS captures 60fps in their new high efficiency format which I could not import into Adobe premiere. I shot a whole bunch of cool stuff in Playa del Carmen Mexico only to get back home and not be able to convert it or even load it into my editing software. I even tried converting it in media encoder. Any suggestions? I've been only shooting 120fps since there isn't a problem with that.
We answer when we can. :) Are you on Mac or PC? On Mac you need High Sierra or later to read HEVC H.265. Later version of Media Encoder CC2018 should see it, too. We typically do a proxy workflow though using ProRes LT for 4K60 or just transcode.
So how can I found this app
can’t wait to film my short film 🎞
man... just subbed to your channel. amazing content.
Thanks! Appreciate you watching.
I loved it Cox I also make my short films using my Smartphone Android
hi need your suggestions in upgrading my system so that my money goes in right direction..i currently edit on my laptop which is macbook pro 2.7 ghz core i5 and 8 gb's of ram..problem im facing here is slow processing in final cut pro and alot of rendering which is annoying,,i'm ready to put my money in new setup but not sure which apple product i should be getting now..please help
Would go with i7 and 32GB RAM or more. If you have the money do the new MBP laptop with a 1TB SSD drive. Or an i7 iMac with 64GB RAM. Or... the the base model iMac Pro is really great. 👍🏻
great thanks..it is helpful:)
Thank you for the helful information
Thanks so much for this awesome video! What is the oldest iPhone that you can use with filmic and does it support android phones at all?
Thanks! Filmic Pro is cross platform. There are some different and limited functions depending on the device. Current versions of the app will go back to work with iPhone 6s and SE. And FYI, if you’re on Android you can download their app called FiLMiC Evaluator and it will let you know if it will work on your phone.
Perfect. Thank you.
Nice !!! Thanks!
I used to use my smartphone for ALL my videos until December 2018. Smartphones are more than capable. Creativity / good content > gear
Interesting to showcase 4k footage when the video is uploaded at 1080p max..?
I film AND edit on my phone. Not by choice initially, but it's been great. KineMaster is getting close to being all someone might need to edit as long as they can cope with the small screen experience.
I'm no film maker; a vlogger with snappy edits and British humour.
I'll be watching and making notes. Part 1 was instant subscribe for me. Great work. 😊👍
Hey thanks for the comment and sub! We like KineMaster, too. Haven’t done any videos on it but probably should! Our go to app is Filmic Pro, then we typically edit on our desktop or LumaFusion on iPad or iPhone. Great to have a vlogger here, hope our channel will help!
It's been a couple of years since I owned an iPhone, but something to be said for a "locked" ecosystem... Video apps are mostly broken on my brand new Mate 10 Pro. I get external audio & poor picture OR internal mic and better picture. 😂 Also left/right channels get swapped using the selfie camera.
I'm putting aside this evening to catch up with your videos. Thanks guys.
same here 👍
Thank you for all these great videos. One question is nagging me, what happens to the music you have in your short films if you decide to unsubscribe to the music service where you purchased your music? Do you have to keep renewing your subscription to Artlist to be able to have their music in your videos? I just watched the video you did about "best music for filmmakers" and it got me here.
No, once you get the music it’s yours to use even if you unsubscribe. Thanks for watching!
@@iphoneographers That's great to know. Thank you for your help on this.
Can you tell me what phone case that is? I have an iPhone 7 and get frustrated that I can’t get an adapter to mount properly due to the lightning port not being notched out.
We mainly used a Moment case and sometimes an Otterbox Commuter, but for video we like Moment.
iPhoneographers thank you. Does it fit a lightning dual adapter? I’ve got one that i want to use to have both an external mic and power to the phone.
you sir are a life saver for me.. thank you so much!!! seriously... thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Nice. I will consider it, when I buy a new phone.
You're amazing.. cool iphone rig! 👍
Thanks! Appreciate you watching. 👍🏻
I installed Filmic Pro today and noticed that unlike MOMENT, Filmic Pro doesn't allow me to switch lenses on my iPhone 7 to choose wide lens. Is it because I already seleected wide lens with another program or am I just stuck at a lens that Filmic Pro has chosen for me? I'm disappointed at not having the option to chose lenses especially with a paid program, $16+ versus a free program like MOMENT that gave me the freedom to choose lenses. When I select camera on my iPhone it merely changes from rear to forward facing camera. Can you think of any tips to fix this? I'm not sure disabling the front camera is even an option. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi, if your phone has dual cameras then Filmic Pro allows you to switch between them. In the Camera menu you can choose it there or you can zoom between the two. If you use zoom just make sure the zoom lever doesn’t show red (on screen right) or you’re doing a digital zoom. Keep it in the green and you’ll be optical. If you can’t see the dual lenses then you might need to reinstall the app or contact their support.
@@iphoneographers None of this addressed my question. I know how to switch cameras. I didn't need the program to do something that simple. I'll go through support. Thanks.
Is it possible to use time-lapse with the app filmic pro?
Yes, it’s an option when choosing frame rates.
I subscribed because of this video and alsp purchased the app
Thks
Can i ask a question?
What us the name of the tripod that have a wheels on your vlog??
Thank You
You might be talking about the PICO dolly... it’s a small tabletop style dolly you can mount a camera on.
Thank for the video. I really agree with the cellphone movie making point of view. If anything it forces you to be more creative. Great job
Thanks! And yes, the limitations can definitely make you more creative. It’s also a lot of fun. :)
I AM SRTING A LOOK BOOK SOON, JST GOT AN IPHONE, WHAT AFFORDABLE GEARS AND APPS DO U RECOMMEND?
Filmic Pro or Mavis or Moment for video camera app are our favorites. Get a microphone like the RODE VideoMicro. Get a small tripod for photo or tabletop use from Manfrotto or Joby. Maybe a gimbal too like the DJI Osmo 2 or Moza Mini-MI. Good luck!
Great video tutorial. Thanks and subscribed 👍
Thanks for watching and the sub!
You’re welcome 😊
Casey's content is the best part of your video
Tell me about it. Casey FTW!
The Tipps are very good.
Nearly 90% of this stuff I am still using.
But my bottleneck is after the filming: the editing.
I am searching for a solution to edit films on iPhone/iPad with full of options like the filmic pro for filming
Check out LumaFusion. Thanks for watching!
i'm grateful that this channel exist.
Thanks for watching!
bro your videos are gold *__*
