You don't need a TV camera or a DSLR camera to film great videos. With the development of technology, we all have powerful video cameras with us at all times.. our phones. Our phones allow us to capture beautiful footage, however it's important that we follow some important steps to maximise the results. It's easy to pull out our phones, go to the camera app and start filming a video, but the cameras in our smart phones are capable of so much more. Our phones are designed to be user friendly. That means that a professional video creator, someone at a gig filming their favourite band and a parent filming their child playing in the park are all capable of shooting okay looking videos. But we don't want okay looking videos... we want great videos... amazing videos! And that's possible. We just have to get a few things sorted before pressing record.

Throughout this course, I will walk you through some of the most important steps to take your basic phone footage, to a cinematic, visually pleasing video. We will cover phone settings, camera movement, lighting, creative transitions and sound.

So grab your phone and let's begin shooting better videos.
