Thanks for the great video! One question. Did you get that green dot on photo or video while taking video/photo of the bright object( sun,moon,etc.)? And if you grt then how do you manage to get rid of that? Thanks in advance!
Yes almost ren year's and people still use the cinematic on their UA-cam videos as click 🪤...it's not cinematic it's far from cinematic....is just another iPhone video with some tweak's in colours that make it look better. Nothing more 😐 oh my god... If you want to be creative or you want to be realistic and understand the cinema definition...start to accept and understand what is what...

just bought an iPhone and always tried to learn HOW to make better videos with what i have..no add ons, just better ways to improve the video quality. this video is awesome, thanks man!
This is probably the best and well balanced tutorial on UA-cam to date. Enough technical information to be informative, but not getting into heavy details to deter the audience. Kudos for doing such a great job!
You really didn’t say anything entirely groundbreaking. But holy hell, when you put them all together it makes such a big difference. Very impressive, great video.
I’ve come back to this video multiple times since my original comment. I learn something new (sometimes a small thing, but still a new thing) every time I rewatch it. This was jam packed with information, tips and tricks. I’m impressed.
Out of the hundreds of these exact types of videos on UA-cam, yours is one of the only that are worthwhile. Genuinely good to watch even if I know most of the stuff in here
As a 15 Pro guy. What I learnt from this is - Editing. That’s where it’s all at. I constantly shoot in normal mode with all the usual stuff but I never use Davinci Resolve. Looks like I’m going to have a good six months learning. Thanks a lot man. 😊
Android guy here, galaxy s10. If iphone has a pro mode, switch to that. You'll get much better quality video. Normal mode is OK, but not for this king of filming.
I’m surprised you didn’t use / suggest the blackmagic camera app for the capture section. It lets you shot the log colour , but save it in h.264/5 formats greatly reducing the file size, and means you can save a lot more footage on the phone without worry of running out of space.
Right. Now you also have the final cut pro app, witch is great at at a lot of things too. You cant shoot log in h264 though, but grading log footage shot in h264 will in a lot of cases introduce bad cases of banding and other artifact, so be careful doing it harsh lighting or other high conrast or low light situations. I wouldnt use it I think
6:46 i like the part about not having to record at midday. it makes sense. shooting from the opposite direction the sun if coming from is also new to me 8:30 also great points about movement vs static shots. will be useful for trips!
adding motion blur is truly the secret sauce! But you can actually do it already in the Davinci Color tab - there is is an effect called Motion Blur and if you play with it a little bit, it works just as good in my opinion! great video btw
Wow, this is what I needed! I was sitting here trying to asses what I need to do to take my videos to the next level and your video came across my timeline. Thank you, thank you, thank you! SUBSCRIBED!
I do this on a regular android phone. The filming techniques and colour grading is where it's at. It's just that if your device can't shoot well in the night or evenings, you'll have to do that in the daytime.
I'm just learning about shooting video with my phone for the first time, and this is by far the most useful video I have come across yet. The main thing I'm left wondering though is how the camera movement is all so smooth, even while following a fast-moving subject. Also, for some reason I see judder in this video's playback; is that just me? It's especially noticeable and consistently present with the train shot that provides the RSMB before-and-after example.
That’s a side effect of 2 things. The first is RSMB, sometimes you get some strange artifacts because of the high shutter speed of the camera. The second is placing 30fps footage in a 24fps timeline and not reducing the videos speed to 80%. Most people won’t notice it but it’s definitely there. By the same token, I also agree that shooting in 30fps on your iPhone looks way better than 24fps
Great video. Have barely used my Sony a7iii since getting the iphone 15 pro. I do love using Cinematic mode when I have subjects though. I switched to FCPX and the ability to switch focus during edits is great.
Nice video❤ For me the most important thing is the lack of sharpening in the pro res. I have regular iPhone and can't turn it off. It's just ridiculous that they didn't put that in the settings because let's be honest shooting on pro res isn't a requirement for the sharpening to be turned off but they made it this way to lure people to buy more expensive device but still it's ridiculous because even if you have pro version you'd want to turned it off without recording in heavy pro res. With sharpening image looks shite. Especially frustrating when raws from that camera look great
The reason you mention at 6:30 the 2x and 5x being muddy at close distances is because it is just digitally zooming on the 1x lens. The 2x always does this, and the 5x has a further minimum focus distance. The 5x uses the true optical 5x lens when focusing on further objects and looks much better.
This is really helpful. I was just in Disney World and mostly used my phone because it’s a pain to pull out the big camera every time. It’s so nice to watch practical videos like this, because sometimes the only camera you have is the phone in your pocket. My regrets from my last trip though was doing 4k 24fps…the footage is so jittery. So frustrating. As well, I don’t know if my phone is glitchy, or what, but sometimes I find that it wants to switch which lens it is using…I don’t know if anyone else has run into that problem, or if it’s just me. Also, if anyone knows how to stop the light reflections from ruining all the night shots, that would be great! Anyways, thanks again for the video! It’s really helpful.
Hi, thanks for your videos. This is huge because people often don’t get that shooting at 24 FPS makes no sense nowadays just because all of our screens, even in theatre, are set to 30/60 Hz, all over the world. 24 FPS were used in analog cinema just to save film roll. Oh and with Final Cut Camera App 1.1 you can shoot LOG HECV now 😊
That RSMB tip really is something. It still doesn't look like something shot at proper shutter speeds but when you mentioned just using the camera app I was really weirded out about that motion blur. Nice.
Also, I'm still on iphone 11 ( still a beast) and I think that a lot of the stuff here applies. There's no log but that does not mean that you cannot work with it.
This is such an interesting video. Thank you so much. Would you choose the same settings (pro res log, etc.) if you take pictures instead of videos? Thanks in advance. Have a good day!
Okay i must say this iphone footage looks good, but you can't put a 30fps Clip in to a 24 fps timeline without reducing the speet to 80% cause the framrates dosen't match and you can acually see it in your video you got some Lagging it's because every 1.25 frame get processed wich means there will be on frame in probably a second that get processed twice so you see it longer than the ohter frames and that causes the lagging
@@syahss8630 yes if you have 24p timeline you should record in 24fps or for slow mo 48/96 ect. The same with 25p and 30p this produces the best looking image
@@fabrizioroscini Yes, it's true, for example in a 3D cinema, when you take off the 3D glasses, everyone says it's blurry without the glasses, but you only see two images at the same time because the two different images for each eye are not polarized , so you can see them with both eyes, so it's like you're drunk, but I don't understand why people can't see that there are only two pictures and nothing is blurry
It's funny, when I was watching the video at the start, the POV on the swings I could tell RSMB was being used because after years of using it, you start to notice the artifacts of it quickly. Obviously anyone who doesn't know about the plugin won't pick up on it, but I definitely had a feeling it was being used here.
I don’t know why. But when I saw this video. The first mins…. I wanted to have kids and a family. I don’t know why but when I saw it I felt like this is what is missing in my life.
Nice Video, for those that can't afford RSMB, there's a Motion Blur Simulation inside Davinci, might not be as good but it works and it's waaaay faster.
instead of buying rsmb you can add motion blur through davinci (free) btw, in fusion add two nodes, optical flow and vector motion blur. Davinci resolve studio you can add just motion blur in the edit or fusion page (I'd also still recommend optical flow)
The issue with Music bed is that you cannot use their music to monetize your videos on UA-cam. I tried a few times and every time UA-cam flagged the song.
It's amazing to be able to have good, editable footage from Iphones finally. Once they make the ultra wide the same quality as the main camera.....it's gonna be really amazing. Seems like an ND filter is totally necessary though.
Man that motion blur makes all the difference. I tried messing around with a few of the demo phones at a store and nearly all of them had that unnatural look, some even looking outright choppy. I know low shutter speeds are hard to manage in highly lit environments, but I assume there are pro camera apps that allow you to lock shutter speed for videos so you can get the blur in-camera right?
What you’re telling is mostly true, one big mistake you’ve given is to choose « most compatible » format ! It’s a very unwise advice since it will provide a better image especially in the high lights environment and this by taking less storage on the iPhone ! The only reason to chose « most compatible » is if you’re OS or software is really old ! H.265 is kind of common now, it’s compatible with Windows 10 or later, macOS since 2017 and all the professional video editing tools are capable of editing such rushes and that for years now (FinalCut Pro was in 2017, Premiere Pro was in 2015) ! The rest of the video is a gem, thanks for it !
Great vídeo!! Thank you for sharing all the info! But why did you shot with Blackmagic app?.. I think it is so much easier to get all settings under control..Thank you!
Thanks for sharing these great tips! I have been looking for ways to improve the footage I record for the videos I shoot. I haven’t made the switch to Davinci resolve yet…but I might give it another try.

@@daviddavis8053really doesnt matter when you can’t set shutter speed lower than 1/1000th in broad daylight
its not though, its always about the shooting first-if you have a bad shot, you cant save it with editing. but you can make a good shot better.
Walt and Tim Apple is applauding 👏 amazing results Landon
Switching from 24fps to 30fps blew my mind! I had no clue how choppy my videos were until I did a back-to-back comparison. Genius!
I’m surprised you didn’t use / suggest the blackmagic camera app for the capture section. It lets you shot the log colour , but save it in h.264/5 formats greatly reducing the file size, and means you can save a lot more footage on the phone without worry of running out of space.
Absolutely. The approach on this was to shoot with no accessories and directly in the native camera app, but the BlackMagic app is great!

Oh man, that RSMB is such a God-send. I was wondering how you got motion blur straight out of camera without NDs! Incredible!
