Overview

This book guides you through the process of using your phone to create different kinds of video and audio for TV, theaters, YouTube, TikTok, and podcasts. Drawing from the author’s experience teaching classes on mobile filmmaking, this resource helps you tell stories better whilst going over the techniques necessary to control the phone professionally, also covering the accessories and software that can help you shape your narrative. Within the chapters you will first learn how to tell a compelling story, before delving into the proper methods for shooting video on your phone effectively and recording high quality audio. The book then explains the best techniques for editing and mixing these components together, always with the smartphone format in mind. Chapters also include the expert knowledge of a wide array of media makers that utilize this medium, from filmmakers to influencers, who give insight into the specific tools they use and how they approach the mobile phone as the hub of their creativity. This book will be a guide to first time makers, students of many disciplines (including student filmmakers), and professional filmmakers who want to leverage what the phone can bring to a shoot.
