What I found supremely useful (especially when shooting something where you can’t see your screen anymore) is using the Camera app in my Apple watch as a viewfinder for the native Camera app on the iPhone. I can even adjust the focus and point of highlight from the apple watch! Its amazing stuff
Hey Simon, cool video! FYI to save you some time in Premiere just Nest your Warp Stabilizer effect (you can add any effect this way) so you can skip the export/re-import step and also you could simply Modify > Interpret the 60FPS footage to 24FPS instead of using a motion effect and that yields the highest quality too - and you can batch all the HFR clips at one time this way as well. :)
Simon you are a rock star.👍👍👍👍👍👍 Awesome video. My wife bought me a gimbal for Christmas. Looking at your videos, gives me lots of ideas, on how to shoot videos
I simply LOVE this video. IT's all a matter of practicing, but your video made me so much more motivated to make those shots and learn. And yes, I bought a monopod because of you. Thanks!
I have seen quite a few videos that teaches you taking shots like these but this one is the best so far for the effectiveness and the simplicity of the presentation.

Hey ! For last shot, you can slow down the video by Nesting the cropped video. Then Wrap Stabalization can be applied to that nested video in Premier Pro. No need to export seperately.
I have both SE and 6, and with my android phone, Osmo Mobile SE/Mobile 6/Mimo app lacks essential control over photography parameters available in an Iphone. There are available workarounds in android (depending on the phone) and the one I've found works well if you're using Samsung S21 Ultra (to 25 ultra with a 108 to 200 MP Quad main camera), is to run the native Samsung (pink icon) Camera with the Osmo Mobile 6 (optional Mimo on the backgroud) and with Samsung Raw app installed delivers lossless raw option, most of the advance photography options like auto/manual control over EV, ISO, f, shutter speed, hd to 8k size/fps, etc. as well as host of image telemetry including histogram. The workaround supports aswell, a host of auto shoot options supporting photographic requirements ranging from basic to advance across different scenarios. This range of controls you typically find in expensive mirrorless SLRs. Note also that if you own a tripod with a remote shutter control this should works so long linked with bluetooth together with other functionalities like voice command and hand gesture. Hope this helps.
Loved some of your gimbal ideas and have bought a monopod as a consequence. What mode are you using on the osmo mobile se for the swoop down and sideways dolly please? Thank you
Great video, as usual! Thank you! Also, I need more practice with my OM4… I tend to make the gimbal binds at certain angle. I will try the side upward movement for sure!
Can you please make more videos like this, on moving shots story telling. this was great, your monopod is not even that long, we can achieve some truly cinematic crane shots. Ordered cheap 67 inch (170cm) amazon basics (just under £16) monopod and cant wait to try these out. I feel as one can have a lot of fun doing what you do, just figuring out the best visual story. enjoying watching your videos a lot
Simon, I've only just started doing video making and wondered if you could clear something up for me. In this video, you say that you always shoot at 60fps, add it onto a 24fps timeline and then adjust the speed down by 40%. But everything I read says record at 24fps only pushing it up to 60fps to do slow motion. Confused what is best!
I only shoot at 60fps and slow it to 40% for slow motion. But my tip is to shoot all your B roll like this, if you want it to look smoother and more cinematic. Unless you want a different effect for your B roll
Much Appreciated! I have an OM4 and a Manfrotto Monopod that I've barely used since working with Canon EOS M RAW, but your video has inspired me to get back with it. You, Cassius Rayner, and also Steve at Learn Online Video, are on the leading edge of masterful mobile filmmaking! Cheers 🙏🏾
Great video.. I will definitely try those shots.. thank you for sharing.. i will be digging into more of your videos coz i want to learn more on how can I utilised the gimbal and its features.
Morning simon hope you are well, I wonder if you can help me out, I have the DJI om4 gimbal paired with the iPhone 12, and try as I may I cannot achieve the dolly or zoom shot effect either in or out. I have tried and tried with different objects and distances etc, my video always seems to have a slightly up and down movement but doesn’t appear as clear as the other videos I’ve seen. Perhaps you would consider making a video tutorial solely covering the dolly/zoom in/out video showing how to set up the gimbal and phone etc. love the channel and have Learnt a lot and am applying it to our own channel. Many thanks Jon in uk
Heyy, does anyone know is there every gimbals in the market specially the cheap ones comes with a place to attach a monopod ? Or is it only possible on selected models like om4 ?
This is quite cool! I'd like to try some stuff with my P30 Pro. It's decent I'd say, not the best but I think it lacks a way to attach better wireless audio or other stuff that could help you.
I am a pianist and I was wondering if I can use it on the tripod in front of me while I am playing outside in the nature whit an Automatic function that change angle and zoom to give a more dynamical shoot. Is it possible to let it work like this?
Great video, thanks! One question, I have an smooth 5, what mode do you use or reconend? You are great with gimbals but i don't understand modes yet. Very formative channel! Thanks again :)

Cheers! I knew there had to be a way 😄
What software is used at 1:18 & 5:45 times stamps in video? Thank you 😊
You should really make a course, so everything is organized. I would buy it in a heartbeat!
That monopod placement on the floor with the gimbal is genius!
I know! I wish I hadn't told everyone now
@@SiHorrocks Haha!
I've always thought of getting a DJI drone but while I've no budget yet, it turns out my OM4 can do the trick!
I am constantly amazed by how much I learn when you post a video. Thank you so much!
No need for fancy equipment! Thanks for the tips.
Simon you are a rock star.👍👍👍👍👍👍 Awesome video. My wife bought me a gimbal for Christmas. Looking at your videos, gives me lots of ideas, on how to shoot videos
Stabilizing the monopod to the ground and moving it is great idea and looks simple. Thanks for showing
Mate this video was soo helpfully. Some fantastic tips for my next project. Going to get myself a monopod.
I love this intro!
I simply LOVE this video. IT's all a matter of practicing, but your video made me so much more motivated to make those shots and learn. And yes, I bought a monopod because of you. Thanks!
Great to hear!
Sir, its really Great Efforts .. Love your Work.. keep it up ..
Brilliant tips even if I don't have a gimble (yet haha)!
Loved seeing Ally Pally. For 20 years I was up at the ice rink every morning at 06:00!
amazing Will! Are you still an enthusiastic skater?
@@SiHorrocks Now in China I've retired though I still have my handmade boots!
Really helpful thank you. This newbie just ordered a monopod.
Great sir, Love your work

danke! Leider nicht
Amazing tips! I just bought a DJI Osmo SE, the low drone shot is a great tip using the monopod, will tie in well with my drone footage. Thanks 👍🏻

Really useful, informative video by a guy who really knows his stuff - thankyou.
i DO love your techniques shown here, many thanks! i wanted to love OM 4 but I can't. Switching modes is the main culprit.
Fab stuff as always. So simple when you see how they are done, but some of these would never have occurred to me. Keep up the great work.
thanks Graham! Hope you find them useful in your videos
Extremely creative and easy to understand. Could you please make one for action shots next :) Thank you!
Thank you - your videos are always informative. Will try these over the weekend.

Thank you for this!! I am a beginner and I use the same setup, always looking for new tricks!
Nice tips!
Cheers Collin! 🙏🙏
Wow, very useful Simon
You got a radio voice. amazing tips. Cheers.
Does everything have to be SloMo? Do you have any tips for non 60fps? If youre trying to get cinematic shots in standard 24fps playback?
Hi love your work. I may have missed it but what modes do you normally shoot these shots in? New user here.
Another great tutorial Simon!
Amazing skill,thank you so much for sharing this with us!!!
Great moves, another excellent video 👍
Bloody ace you are the dude so dam good you make it look so easy I’ve got to get out and start trying it out
Great video thank you!
Oh how much fun these suggestions appear! Thank you Simon.
On the crane shot, do you leave the gimbal in follow mode?
Yes
Loved some of your gimbal ideas and have bought a monopod as a consequence. What mode are you using on the osmo mobile se for the swoop down and sideways dolly please? Thank you
tilt locked
Nice! Your channel came up in my feed for the first time. Subbed!
Welcome!
Simply brilliant, taking notes! ❤ - Amy

Hey so should i get the dji osmo 6 for the extended rod, or just buy the se and save couple bucks and spend it on a monopod, anyways great video!
Great tips
Great ideas, as always, Si. Can't wait to test the ones I haven't tried yet! :)
That's awesome! I know I keep going on about this combo, but I keep finding new shots you can get lol
thank you for sharing
Very useful and informative video. Thanks for making it and sharing it with us. Appreciate the passion and hard work behind it.
Amazing learning, Definitely using them, leaving for CHANDRATAL this month for my first official vlog...wish me luck
Good luck 😁
@@SiHorrocks sweetheart please suggest me good voiceover recording app for vlogs, thanks
Hi there! I'd like to be able to save this to a playlist but that's not an option. Would you please be able to change that?
great video! thank you for sharing these tips. it will definitely help me!
Very useful video.. could you please confirm in which mode you used for fake drone shot using OM4
Awesome! Thanks. Going back to learn more. Cheers!
Great video.. I will definitely try those shots.. thank you for sharing.. i will be digging into more of your videos coz i want to learn more on how can I utilised the gimbal and its features.
Nice work mate
Hy Simon 🎉 where you buy this renewal for the gimbal to make the fake drone shots...??? I found it only in amazon but there are not good quality
You let all the secrets out ☺️
Yep 😁
Life hack: you don't have to buy monopod if you already have a tripod, open only one leg and use it as monopod!!
Lol.. he uses monopad for its length..
hi there
great tuto thank you. what are the settings for the gimbal ? tilt locked or follow . this is where I always get confused
thanks from Israel

Heyy, does anyone know is there every gimbals in the market specially the cheap ones comes with a place to attach a monopod ? Or is it only possible on selected models like om4 ?
pretty much all of them - it's just a regular tripod port at the bottom of the gimbal
@@SiHorrocks Thank u very much Mr.Simon!
Love from INDIA🕉️
How secure does the gimbal feel attached to the monopod?
Hi Simon,
Why does the downward movement need to be sideways? Which mode are you using?
Great 👍🏻
What setting do you have the gimble on for these shots?
Love the video!!!
Do you help with baking or cooking videos in your videos?
This is quite cool! I'd like to try some stuff with my P30 Pro. It's decent I'd say, not the best but I think it lacks a way to attach better wireless audio or other stuff that could help you.
I am a pianist and I was wondering if I can use it on the tripod in front of me while I am playing outside in the nature whit an Automatic function that change angle and zoom to give a more dynamical shoot. Is it possible to let it work like this?
Why is my low shot coming out upside down, or do you change in post. Thanks Simon
how about some nouvelle vague moves, or neo realism moves?
Great advice. Thank you.
Great video, thanks! One question, I have an smooth 5, what mode do you use or reconend? You are great with gimbals but i don't understand modes yet. Very formative channel! Thanks again :)
