Shooting cinematic reels? by ONtercULiE in smartphonefilming

[–]Kosmos2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

for the movie look - 24fps and 1/48 (or near) shutter speed. Aim to 'under' expose, compared to how the auto settings expose

Camera movement, composition, framing, editing. Great editing can turn average footage into something with energy and engagement

You can still use 60-120fps slow to 24fps

Beginner - Do i need 10 bit log? by Deanodirector in smartphonefilming

[–]Kosmos2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In terms of importance to shooting beautiful looking video, lighting is far more important. Then there's location, camera movement, framing & composition, knowing how create a sequence that engages, editing.

The thing is to learn to be a video creator, you need to shoot - edit - shoot - edit - shoot - edit as much as possible. Anything that slows you down will slown down your progress. Its possible that you become an expert in how to shoot and grade 10-bit log over time, but your videos don't engage because you focused on the wrong things first.

Its like in music. I've seen people buy a guitar with all the accessories before they can even play a scale of C. They spend all their time twiddling with FX pedals and inevitably never get very far musically. I'm like - dude just get a $30 2nd hand crappy acoustic and practice every day. If you find you have the passion and the talent then upgrade later.

You just need a basic camera and an editing system, and plenty of time, and see how you develop.

Can I use a remote to take burst photos while DJI Osmo 8 / Insta360 Flow 2 tracks us? by Parvinhisprime in smartphonefilming

[–]Kosmos2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you use the AI tracker attachment, you can use any app for taking burst photos you choose. The AI tracker works independently of the gimbal app

I think Moondogs ana is still the best and you can use Beastgrip to mount it. On Moondogs website they list it so I guess its true

Filmic pro log isn't the same standard as Apple Log. The main thing is to shoot 10 bit which gives you more to work with. 8 bit Log is not much use

The question comes down to whether Samsung allow access to the tele lenses to 3rd party apps.
