18. How We Got iPhone 15 to Look Like an 8K Cinema Camera
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 тра 2024
- What is a cinema camera? In terms of specifications, most professionals shoot ProRes 4K in 10bit log to an SSD. Since iPhone 15 now now has those specs, I wonder how far the iPhone 15 can go simply treating it like any other ProRes 10bit cinema camera? With the right talent, the right equipment, and the right software, we think we can inch smartphones a little closer to the cinematic arena. If you want to be a filmmaker, shooting a movie on an iPhone should not be your end goal - but if a smartphone is all you have access to, it’s a great place to start. One of the best aspects of democratization is that it enables individuals who lack resources to access higher-quality tools. In this episode, we compare the iPhone 15 cinema mode to the RED Monstro by rigging out the iPhone as a cinema camera and using an A.I. post-production pipeline to get the image looking as close as possible (hint: you might be more impressed than you’d like to be by the results.)

Crazy how films prior to 1990's had way less tech yet they reign supreme in cinema history.
0:00 a smooth sea will never create a skilled sailor.
yep, even rewatching stuff in 4k without cgi and using practical effects and models they still look absolutely stunning and believeable.
There is a reason why Christopher Nolan still shots on film.
Because “we can fix it in post” wasn’t a thing.
shooting in film beats digital.
So basically you can do it with an iPhone but you need everything in the kitchen to make it work😂
Most or all of the cinematic or profesional movies are created this way
Yeah a cinema camera is basically just a brain. It needs a whole production and post production crew to get a really high end, cinematic look (not to mention an extrmely expensive lens. Some cost as much as a new car). But you need a good sensor and image processor in the first place, so the iphone is still impressive.
Except the kitchen sink
This is how apple put their sample images and videos on their website. Yes, it took on Iphone BUT not as a single tool 😂
Yeah, you’re going to be at 100K minimum before the end of 2024. This is some of the best filmmaking content (subject matter, polish, production quality, information) I’ve EVER seen on UA-cam.
That is the nicest thing ever. Anthony, email us at support [at] stared [dot] tech and send your address and I'll send you something special
ok
@@Strada-Techthank you profesor, you are gold, keep up the good work 💪, wish you all the best
Agreed. Really clean and professional looking
No joke. This video alone is so good, I just subbed.
I work for an agency that has a ton of 9:16 content for our client social media accounts. Because of that, I started shooting on the iPhone 15 Pro Max because I was feeling so tired at the end of the day with my vertical mounts and heavy rigs, it made no sense. I've been having a PHENOMENAL time using the Blackmagic App recording to an SSD that I have in a MagSafe wallet so it's all contained easily. It's in a PolarPro case where I can use all my ND and polarizer filters. The stabilization in the Blackmagic App, is almost good enough to keep the gimbal at home depending on your camera moves. An added benefit of using a depth map would completely change the game once again. What I'm doing now, no one can tell it's an iPhone. Using Strada in the future and utilizing depth maps....well come on! A dream!
100% agree. My productivity has gone through the roof
Can you elaborate on the SSD in a Magsafe wallet?
@@ChaseCollective You put a SSD in the wallet, so it's attached to the iPhone. Think something of a Samsung T7 that could fit the Magsafe wallet.
Cheers to some of your points about camera accessibility and enabling people to have a tool to learn on. Also your reference to the Sony PD 150 and all the cameras in that space. Crazy to think an iPhone has so much more resolution that magically Sony back in the day.😂
At first I wondered why this video is so staggeringly better than any other content I've seen on UA-cam. It's as if an actual filmmaker and not a content creator was making it. I thought I recognized the face and then I realized it's Michael Cioni and his team. It IS an actual filmmaker using filmmaking techniques and not UA-cam tropes to tell his story. I've had the pleasure of meeting Michael and his team at the Los Angeles Final Cut Pro user group and Cine Gear. Great, talented, smart people pushing the industry forward to a future it didn't know it needed. Thank you Michael and team not just for this channel but all you guys are doing. Now if you could just reimagine the slate for the 21st century...
a 21st century plan for TC (slates) is on our list:-)
ok
Hop off his meat bro 😂😂😂
I love this perspective. It's not about replacing an established technology or tool, its about being able to unlock the ability to do more with something less. Thank you for being one of the few who thinks this way instead of just constantly comparing and being negative. I hope y'all get super big cause this production quality and overall video is amazing...Goodluck!!
ye but you know, something less could also be to not do all of this stuff showcased in the video, but instead just buy a used zv-e10 for 250$ and probably take another 800$ to buy some lenses, a gimbal and a monitor. You will be much more cheap then an iphone 15 pro, and it will you 100000x better results instead.
I dont really see the point this video wants to set, if you take everyhting you can, get vfx artists, use AI and stuff, then you can also make an iphone 11 look cinematic if you know what i mean
im sorry the fact that you're only at 6.92 k subs right now is mind blowing. i subbed, hope to also see you sky rocket upwards!
Haha. That's great! I've been working in movies for 20 years, but I'm brand new to UA-cam so we're doing our best to figure this out. Your encouragement is welcomed - but so is your feedback. Open to ideas so we can make our channel even better! next Tuesday has an episode you won't forget:-)
Wow, that was an amazing video! I loved how it provided us with so many valuable lessons. It really gave us a great insight into how cinematographers think and work.
Instant favorite! Hands down my new favorite channel. I'm diving in your channel and watching all your current masterpieces and can't wait for future cinema grade videos. I was trying to analyze your lighting, BEST THING I HAVE SEEN IN MY LIFE ON UA-cam! Keep creating, your art is exceptional! ♥
I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW AMAZING THIS VIDEO IS! Great work

Thank you so much for your work man. Your channel is going to blow up this year any time
This was excellent. Hope to see you guys around town!

Amazing work on these videos. Your channel is going to blow up this year. Mark my words. The quality, thoughtfulness, and depth is unreal. And nice pitch ;)
I am so unimaginably excited by this technology and the fact that I can minimize the size of my gear and create with my iPhone. Thank you so much!
Such an informative and well explained post! wow! Excited to have all these technological options! We came along way baby! ;) Subscribed! 👏
amazing video. Well done sir
BROOOS, THIS THING IS MINDBLOWING!!!!!

Incredible work, best channel on UA-cam right now for filmmaking.
dude this video is AWESOME! nicely done!
Thank you! Check out Episodes 23 and 24 and 25! If you liked this episode, we did some crazy tests for those episodes!
Brilliant work.
wow great work!
phenomenal video
I wish UA-cam had better algo, I was obsessed w watching these kind of vids a month ago!
UA-cam algorithm has been terrible for the last 2 years. I only watch tech, how it's made/works, and basketball videos yet UA-cam keeps flooding my feed with alt right joe rogan bs and incel videos.
Great overview you have a talent for communicating complex ideas 👏
Very impressive, incredible work
Phenomenal work here, great test and great configurations. One of those rare times you look at the sub count and are left blown away at the production value and content, Totally thought you had a millions subs
This video is on another level of content creation, just incredible!!!🔥
Its been a while since i sat down an PAYED ATTENTION the whole video, perfect to the last detail, subbed right away
i love your optimism🙌 I think that's what we should do as a creatives; to utilize every tool creatively.
This is insane man love it
This is so well explained! I'm inspired. I appreciate what you mentioned about resource accessibility! 🙌
Thanks Nathan! Check out EP 11 - the comments and feedback from that is what actually inspired THIS episode to be made!
Truly inspiring. I’ve been stubborn on creating more content instead of my Canon R5 and after watching this I’m adding things to the cart and brain storming ideas to capture with my 15 pro max!
And this is a brilliant take BTW! Really well done 🤘🏻🧠🤘🏻
This is STRADA content is spectacular......good good..... Very good work Mike!! Keep going year killing it. Everything is so good.....every aspect of a video presentation....information, audio , video.....just flat out great.
Wow! Thanks, Thaddeus! Glad you could check it out. Episode 13 is my personal favorite:-)
There are many things I’d like to say. First, depth of field is the only thing I like about small sensors - actually when shooting with fX3 I try to shoot with closer aperture if possible . I think that’s a very interesting experiment . Of course, we are talking in the video about more than 10,000 dollars of equipment , which means that in reality you could buy a camera and lens and make it with more ease , but the proof of concept is very nice :-)
Great work
This is amazing. I came here from your interview in Office Hours Global. Great stuff
Man,wow.. amazing content. Keep doing.
notifications on and subscribed wow!!! where was this channel ??? I love and enjoy your contents, pretty sure this channel is going to blow up on every social. I truly appreciate all the outstanding efforts you put in making this video. can't wait to see more. best channel ever man! much love from Haiti
This video is so professionally done. So captivating. Definitely deserves more recognition
Thank you Terra! We only started this a few months ago. I've been making films for many years, but never tried to tell stories on UA-cam. New experience for me and excited to help improve the creative process! Suggestions and advice are most welcome from successes like you!
Wow holy production value, this is wild man!
Amazing video!!!!
Lot of new things i just learned, ❤️❤️
I was shocked to see that this channel has 8.25k subscribers. With this kind of production quality you should have much more than a millon followers....I wish you the best for your journey 😊....And thank you 😊
brilliant presentation!
Damn you for making me push that subscribe button and twisting my arm until i hit all notifications! Good stuff and I’m glad i found this channel.
Hahaha. Well, FWIW, it means a lot. I'm new to UA-cam but been working on movies for a long time, so I'm glad you found value. Let me know what else you'd like to see and learn!
I really enjoyed this! keep on making contents like this. You will blow up sooner than you expect! thank you!
Great Work mate.. Keep it up! you deserve more subs..
So kind! Thank you! I've been working on movies for a long time, but new to UA-cam. Any feedback to make our channel better is appreciated!
It is incredible that a small Sony Tam sensor is competing with a sensor as large as the RED
Lot of info to implement
Wow that’s genius ! I watch a lot of cinematography content and do my own videos , and this was extremely interesting yet innovative to see . Thanks for that
Just amazing.
This video is awesome!
Excellent video. I subbed. Looking forward to more content like this, really nicely done.
Thanks Jonas! Check out other EPs as there are some really fun ones! There's some great startup stories, but my favorite block is 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13. The thru-line in there is beefy and deep. Thanks for the sub:)
this is beautiful
this video is crazy good, I thought there is no channel that would produce this quality of a video. I hope you guys do it every year a new model comes out (leaks says apple is including a bigger sensor, a 14 bit converter, and more for better videos)
i am amazed you arent at anything less than 100k. this video was easily a 10/10
WOW!!!!!!! Incredible video! Amazing channel. The quality is just... wow. For me to remember when I'm still subbed when y'all are at millions of subscribers.. I have subscribed at 2.9K subscribers.
This amazing
Thank you.
Great video, subbed
5:40
Be Still My Heart...
I knew this day would come.
After waiting since 2008.... (using the iPhone 4) for "B" roll...
NOW... WE CAN and WILL... make a movie with APPLY iPhone...
Holy Moley.... I am so EXCITED.
This is just such a great insight to the vast and creative world of cinematography, through the lens of a personal, internet communications device. I personally use the iPhone for the run and gun social media content, but this just opens doors to a budget friendly option for neofilmakers.
This is fun and challenging for those of us who are merely hobbyists! Great info!
THIS. SHOULD. BE. ON. NETFLIX.
Great storytelling.
I definitely knew everything you were saying and everything you talked about. The depth was cinema pro 50k and the res was monstro focus like seriously so AI.. & the nucleus in the tripod with that beast grip and SD Bluetooth plugin all with the new 4D USB-XY cord, great stuff right there.. 😂🤣 No but seriously, I can see a lot of work was put in like wow, y’all did awesome👏 Even tho the only techy things I do are with digital art and whatnot, I subscribed bc this was amazing!
Amazing video.
I didn't expect this amazing of a production for someone with only 2.97k subscribers! Your storytelling/narration skills are killer. Keep up the great work!
Thanks. Been a filmmaker for 20 years and worked one over 150 feature films, but I’m new to UA-cam so any advice on how to do this here is welcome!
I LEARNED A LOT!
Goosebumps.
Wow this is so cool!
Great staff yooo
this is incredible!
The results are mind-blowing. Strada are producing some of our favourite content on UA-cam right now. Keep it coming! 🔥
You’ve got a great screen presence, almost like a “Vsauce” personality in the film industry. Great content! Although I don’t think iPhones ever will replace true cinema cameras, there is no doubt it makes “basic” filmmaking more accessible for the general public - professionally, for better or worse.
I see Apple and Blackmagic integrating the LiDAR into the app to be able to get true depth maps baked into the video for this purpose.
Sheesh that's awesome
Okay, wow.
It's not often I actually get so intrigued and riveted by a video about something like this, but this was honestly fascinating.
I've played around a lot with my 14 Pro's cinema mode and always thought it really remarkable what it's able to do in just software in combo with the LiDAR, so I was quite curious about this video. Admittedly I was not expecting such a well polished, well explained, and wonderfully put together video with excellent samples to showcase. Bra-frikkin-vo! (except now I wish i had a 15 pro for USB-C, hah!)
Kudos from a 20+ year industry vet in camera dept! It also gave me a huge smile when mentioning the PD150; I've similar memories of shooting maaany things on that camera in college! 😄
Thanks for saying that. More to come!
Excellent video 👏
