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.
Ich bin begeistert von Deinen Videos, was Gimbal und Mimo anbelangt. Von den Aufnahmen her, bist Du im Raume Andelfingen unterwegs..;-)). Hast Du auch Beschreibungen auf deutsch? Grüsse aus dem Weinland Renato Zurigo
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 🙏🏾
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, 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
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.
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 :)
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.
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
