The quality and technique used in this video were amazing.

[@rodrigolandaromero]

I don’t know if it’s me, but I think they lacked ND filters in front of the external lenses. You can’t shoot in bright daylight without them, there wasn’t any motion blur in most of the shots. I felt the video was always quite overexposed, you can just shoot a bit underexposed and then lift the shadows in post (LOG helps a lot). Preserving highlights is a MUST when getting a “filmic look”. Plus iPhones don’t have a “terrible dynamic range”: the 13 Pro Max can shoot 10 bit HDR without a problem. Put the newest RED camera on a counter light and it will still have it’s problems with clipping bright areas, even in RAW. What I would have done is film at an even tighter focal length to avoid showing those high contrast parts, since it’s slow mo there is no problem with stability. Also I would have had more detail shots: iPhones have a decent depth of field when the subject is really close. For example: a static shot of a flower or something and having the couple pass behind it without the framing moving at all. May I remind you that movement has to be motivated: if all the video has it, it gets kind of boring. Another example: if all the shots you show are static and suddenly when the bride comes in the church you push in: that subconsciously tells the audience “this is really important”. It is an element of storytelling that is used all the time. AND not use every clip (out if 10, 2 or 3 end up in the final edit). Other things that would help are to blur the background with masks in After Effects (believe me, it is worth it, for you can also re-light the whole scene and disguise nasty fragments of the image), add better sound design, remove those characteristic phone flares and replace them with DSLR’s, add a bit of softness (so that it isn’t strangely over sharpened), and overall add more emotion to the final product with some good color grading (again, LOG is mandatory, that is why Filmic Pro is so good). One last thing would be to shoot in a better codec: the 13 Pro Max easily shoots Pro Res. The difference in camera quality between Apple’s economic version of the phone and the expensive one is actually mind-blowing. It is not the camera, but the artist behind it that makes a film look awesome. Most cinema cameras in the 1990s had a lower dynamic range and yet they where exposed perfectly thanks to great DPs. Now we have much better tools in our pockets: use them with artistry. After all, a video is nothing else that “moving paintings”: each frame tells a story, whether it’s good or bad.

[@JimRobinson-colors]

I would say of course you can - the question is "Should you?" One of the definite negatives is that you are now presenting yourself with the same equipment as used by "uncle Jack". The perception might be temporary, and of course the results are key, but showing up to film a wedding with iphones, I think you are lucky that you had great clients. I can see that going very badly with people who worry about the perception of their friends and relatives that they went cheap. I actually know people that have large rigs with matte boxes just for that reason. I also think that it's great that you guys dress in casual black t-shirts so people know who is in the film crew. But blending in at a live event will get you more relaxed and natural footage. And I have been to a wedding in the past where the film crew - was so distracting that it no longer felt like a wedding and felt like you were watching the taping of a TV show. The event is for the couple and their friends and families and the video should not be distracting their eyes from the ceremony. Keep in mind that although average people don't know much about filming - they do know what an iphone is and when someone sends them other footage shot from attendants of the wedding, from an iphone. They will notice that it looks a lot like your footage and wonder why they paid you in the first place.

[@chiefthecreatorweddings5331]

I agree. Yes you can film it on an iPhone. The images were clean but I also feel you give up post control of color grading. Wasn't a fan of the same shots wide and semi mid shots didn't see much mid or any tight shots at all.

And to be honest with this video the final product looked like it was shot on a phone. Even with the gear.

[@DennisMathias]

I'm just noticing and wondering about the smoothness of motion. Does it seem that some of the shots are a little unsteady? Even with your Ronin? I wonder what this would have looked like using the iPhone's stabilization algorithm. i.e., do you need the Ronin at all? Would a grip with iphone stabilization on give better or equal results? Would a small monopod work?

[@xraydog2011]

I think it something to do with the shutter speed ,they should have used an ND filter

[@texasshow3165]

about to comment this also.. noticed it when they're panning the shot. all in all, still a very good video

[@euroker05]

You notice the judder more when they slowed down the footage.

[@Kubas2]

@@euroker05 I think that they recorded everything in 4K60, and now we see the video in 4K24, which makes the frames uneven and created this overall stutter throughout the entire finished video. They should have posted it in 4K30 so we can see it properly. Editing in the wrong frame rate can totally destroy the vibe of the video. Hence why editing a 25FPS video on a 30FPS timeline might look bad (or vice versa) or 50FPS on 60FPS timeline (also vise versa), it should never be done before conversion, as it can have terrible results.

[@truenorthvisuals]

I appreciate the effort you put in to this and this is probably one of the best tries to “film a wedding with an iPhone” that I’ve seen. But with that being said, you can’t avoid the iPhone colour, not without a log profile. You can’t avoid poor dynamic range and most def you can’t avoid that nasty flaring when light hits the lens directly. Also all the S line up from DJI is working perfectly for heavier set up, they are pretty bad with light set ups from Ronin S till the last one. I spent too much time trying to balance and calibrate to perfection a A6300 with a 35mm on a Ronin S and still I had a few issues. Same thing with the RS 2. What I would do is spend a shit tone on lighting because we all know the enemy of the iPhone, not enough light. Some shots are actually perfect & 99% of the people can’t tell what is it you shoot with. Either way, you’ve got some balls heading to a wedding with iPhones and I respect that, filming a behind the scenes at the same time for you channel too? Damn. Good job

[@maxilinkov1611]

And obviously the awful compression

[@JarisDDP]

I think this would have been impressive if I haven´s seen AMAZING stuff done with the same phone, shots are fine, you need filters for dynamic range and colorization with that range, I think the final result could be like 10 times better with more editing and those 2 things

[@michaelbell75]

Nice video. You left out the two most important things IMO. An ND filter to keep you in the 180 shutter rule, and a Mist filter to soften up the over-sharpened iPhone look. Far more important than a gimbal IMO, iPhones already have excellent stabilization.

What also could've helped was shooting on filmic pro log 3 with a 2.39:1 aspect ratio. Color grading it with a more DSLR or cinematic look. The shots look great, but honestly could've looked even better.

[@svenkrause7957]

I was always dreaming of an iPhone as my main camera, but as we clearly can see here, the quality especially regarding depth of field and colours is so poor compared to a real camera.

I only shoot pro level DSLRs/L Lenses/Etc. because when ppl look at me with it, they feel comfortable knowing that the gear is professional. It’s not uncommon for multiple ppl to ask, “So what is that? The 5D? The R5?” Regardless of if they know what the gear does, they are somewhat familiar these days so it helps ease their discomfort by saying it’s “pro level”. I said that to say you can definitely shoot it from an iPhone, but I’d never do that simply because if they know that’s what you shot it on, it’ll subconsciously degrade the final product. That’s just how humans are wired.

[@SwaroopDamaraju]

That is true. However, the fact is that iphone output is not of the same quality as a pro level camera. this video while inspiring, isn't what I would ever use on a real shoot with client. It's their "Moment of a lifetime". There is not enough sharpness, even in close-up shots, no proper depth of field, not much room to color grade during edit.

[@JohnUntivero]

I put a matte box on my camera when filming even indoors. It doesn't do anything to help, just makes the setup look "professional"

[@vazvideo]

I hear you Cooper but wholeheartedly disagree about the final product being degraded. Content will always be King. I've been a broadcast pro since 1992, freelance pro since 2002, going on 4 Photography Emmy's, Telly winner but so what. Just shot 90% of a Travel Show in Breckenridge Co., for a former CNN producer, that will be distributed on CNN Airport and ReachTV on an iPhone 13 Pro with Crane M3 Gimbal. I currently own a Sony FX3, BMPCC6K, Canon C300, A7III's GH5's with every "pro level" lens focal length blah blah blah. My client saw the first gimbal clip I shot on the 13 Pro, and we went with it for the rest of the 3 day shoot, aside from a sit down 2 Cam slid interview. Over $1200 per day. All that to say...it's literally not what you use anymore, it's how you capture moments and tell a story. Who cares what ppl think or say about the gear you're using, the only opinion that matters is the client who is paying you. And if they are uncomfortable with the gear you use, they probably don't trust you as a film maker/videographer. That's another issue altogether.

[@EnriqueAviles]

Years ago a friend wanted to hire me to do her wedding video, but lacked the budget. On the wedding day, I came up with my iPhone SE (the first one) and a small gimbal and shot her wedding video. They were so happy, and so was I. The quality was already pretty good and I its such a small piece of gear that it was easy to shoot while dancing.

[@EternalMemoriesARK]

I feel like editing is also really important which is exactly why this wedding video looks a lot blander then it should. I’ve made a few wedding videos and graduation ceremonies of my own on iPhone 13/11 and they’re way much better than the example shown in this video. Despite the high storage usage i always recommend 4K 60fps. And editing is THE MAIN KEY. Light leaks, transitions, text, split video

[@BryanLopezProductions]

Why an 18mm all day though? I think a 35 or 50 would've made a huge difference in taking away from the iphone look. Also, The post editing could've been better if the lopsided clips were leveled out.

[@CWBchannel]

One thing I feel as if you could’ve covered is adjusting the frame rate on the iPhone. Most wedding videos have a lot of slow motion clips (this video being a prime example) and you can tell that alot of the clips were not shot at a higher frame rate. The “jumpiness”, “staggering”, and “jittery” footage during the slo-mo clips is due to not shooting in a higher frame rate. Those slo-mo clips would’ve been so much smoother if shot at 60fps-120fps, especially being on the gimbal. Everything else about the final footage/edit was awesome! This was the only thing that caught my eye, and wanted to point out. Awesome video/tutorial! Thanks for sharing!

[@zaymax_7]

I'm in full support of this video as it's one of the best attempts i've seen on making iphone footage good, but sadly the whole "avoiding the iphone look" chapter all look like bad iphone footage. it's definitely the colors and AI skin tone color science. It's horrid and I don't know anyone who understands why this happens with phone footage. Also the team forgot about nd filters!! motion blur is a huge things that makes amateur footage look amateur, but having zero motion blur from an iphone with no depth of field makes it even worse

[@ElBoyoElectronico]

This! My iPhone 13 PM has way worse skin tones than even my 4 year old Google Pixel 2XL. And when using the standard app, this is unavoidable. A dedicated helps a bit with the skin tones. Skin tones alone would be the reason I would never shoot any kind of people photography/videography.

[@SkullysPlace]

Yes definitely the skin tone is a big issue but to the avg person they would be fine with it but as a photographer I would have to take it and adjust the tones before delivering it but that’s just me. Overall for what it was it was good enough for a couple on a tighter budget. One huge plus is the weight difference but I wouldn’t hesitate to use it as a backup if something ever went wrong with my main cameras. Enjoyed the content!

In my opinion this is one of the better videos out there....I am talking about the final result in the end.

[@grhyservondub]

I dunno guys, I have all the same gear as you and i still think cinematic mode with a gimbal on the iPhone 13 trumps anything with a moments lens. also, a lot of your shots and the focus on the iphone even with the Tele lens mounted arent great. the texture in cinematic mode is really nice.

I also film my brother wedding video with only an Iphone 7 and no equipments. The result is actually beautiful. I love watching your videos to have more experience in film making.

[@mr.j5112]

The couple: so we're actually tight on budget for our wedding video, is that alright? These guys: Sure we'll take it. We'll just have to do some little changes.

[@sdutango]

Clients expectation: A few RED and jib Clients budget: iPhones

Personal opinion here: I am just tired of the over use of a gimbal, doesn't matter if it's an iPhone or a Red camera. As a wedding videographer, I am always trying to find a "motive" behind the type of shot that I am about to execute and I try to avoid the gimbal as much as possible when it's not needed.

The weeding video result bring tears to my eyes. Very nice result. I once shoot half wedding using my android phone when my camera got lens error. I think it on iPhone 7 or 8 era. Of course the result no where near this video. LoL..

[@epvideosdiecastracing]

Love this video! This give me confidence to use my iPhone as a 3rd camera at my weddings! Maybe a 2nd camera.... maybe a 1st??? THANKS!

[@davidbh7006]

Maybe if I get married 🥲

[@oddmanout1175]

Good job! As other has mentioned, we don't know the premises, budget etc for the video, and it probably looks better without the KZbin compression. Still, it misses the little final touch. Also take a look at Andy To's iPhone videos here on KZbin.

[@xx-yc2fx]

I thought this was such an interesting experiment and the challenges/results were good to see. I think ultimately, a big part of wedding photography/videography is about optics and how you work with the couple and their family and friends - and I just don't see this being "acceptable" in a wedding scenario for a long long time. When I shoot with my smaller mirrorless and a pancake lens, I get way more Uncle Bobs coming up to me at a reception asking about my camera specs, second guessing my expertise, etc. than when I use my larger DSLR, with a battery pack, and my heaviest largest lens. What they see dictates how they feel about you as a creative, and I can't imagine the shock you'd get from guests by using an iPhone, even if your couple knew and signed off on it in advance. 😂 But beyond the logistical challenges (the overheating, dynamic range) I think it's unfair because the footage looked totally serviceable!

[@friedpicklezzz]

You can film a wedding on anything that records video. The question is: “is the quality acceptable to us”

[@AurelianIrimia]

Very choppy!!! I'm pretty sure it's because of the famous “cinematic” 24FPS. On the movie screen, 24FPS is look cinematic, but on a digital screen, which we all use today (smartphones, tablets, PCs…) and especially on social media, 24fps is rubbish. Shoot in 4K 60fps and export in 4K 30fps.

[@bmefilms6879]

when you film in 4k 60 and play at regular speed, thats why its choppy. film what you want in slo-mo and everything else at 24fps...not 30!

[@ahmedehab4937]

phones cameras in general shines up in close ups because u get that natural shallow depth of field u don't get with normal shots , so when working with a phone u have to consider more close up shots. A close up In good lighting conditions with the 13 pro, and u wont be able to tell if it was shot on a phone

[@neethch]

This is a great channel! I only caught sight of you folks in recent times, but it’s now among my favourite channels.

[@lqqkitslory]

I think it’s the angles, the details and how you’ve edited it all together to tell a story, more than the equipment that makes it good video. Which is a great lesson in itself

[@anasshah6777]

gooc

[@Reike_Bradley]

It’s but obvious and clear that Tomorrow filmmakers are just the best out there… 💯 The final Edit kept me watching for more than 5 different times and it seemed like I had never watched the video. 😊😊😊 Am so impressed about the way you made the iphone surpass its capabilities. Thanks for such content… ♥️🙏🏽 I really wish I could join your film making course.

[@mikebugatti718]

3:00 had me in tears 😂

[@najsosaurushh]

This inspires me to do better for my first wedding video! Thanks for sharing lots of tips🥰

[@joejohnson5086]

Really that’s good to hear

[@matrixate]

Editing is great but yea...it looks like it was shot with a cell phone...an old one too. Still, thanks for confirming that having the right gear does make a significant difference but that editing and production is paramount. Much respect to the couple for capturing this sacred moment with just cellular phones. Yeesh...I hope you still had a real camera crew recording with your normal gear.

[@ebentechstudio]

such an amazing and a simple wedding organized. so beautiful!. the creativity and directing behind the filming is so impressing.

[@ragedimonyo]

It was okay if you only look at it on the perspective of video quality. A bigger sensor has its perks and the loss of the gradient details are really obvious. Especially when you look at skin and the hard edges... BUT it was also amazing for the fact that this was shot on an iphone!

[@vipulmundhe8750]

its not about the camera it's about the person behind the camera ❤

[@rezavergara8007]

Nowadays you can produce topnotch quality and be able to produce masterpieces with just a cell phone like the iphone 13 and this video was evident of that well done fellas

[@galgor]

Some shots look better than others but ultimately it's a no.

[@Techmej]

I use Manual Camera 4, and it has everything you'll ever need (even RAW photography for non-pro iPhones 12 or newer)

[@FelipeRoehe]

Parabéns pela iniciativa de compartilhar conhecimento e experiências aqui. 👏👏👏👏 Abraços do Brasil 🇧🇷

I only use my iPhone for my youtube channel, i also use a beastcage with a Kenko 0,75X pro series lens and i'm loving the results.

[@wilfredfelix4890]

Very nice and romantic, made me feel like getting married 😊

[@rameshkumarthakur8565]

One thing is that dslr camera shots comes soo smooth no frame skip or freeze but in iphone u can clearly see freezing and gittery in almost every shot.

[@stijntenholder8803]

Turned out to be an amazing video! Good job guys!

[@mat_thephotographer1]

Great work!! So good that when I was looking at the final video I forgot it was shot on a phone!

[@titaniumshell]

Looks great. I'm wonder if you could could have used an ND or pro mist filter on the moment lenses. Plus is there an issue with frame jitter in the slow motion?

[@david_gregory_tenor]

I can see the jitter too and would like to have seen some real time footage as opposed to a series of post production slow motion scenes one after the other, which got very boring after the first minute.

[@gerardicosas]

I have an iPhone 13 mini, it's incredible & congrats for doing this, a lot of people can eat doing this job without a expensive camera.

[@theydxtv333]

Excellent job! Love what you guys did here!

[@viejournal4107]

It's all about the moments captured in the vid. The image quality is not comparable even with an 8 year old Sony A6000, not to mention this vid lacks the shallow depth of field that could play a great part.

[@mvmnt.]

What edge did the Moment App offer you over FILMiC? Especially considering how good FILMiC's LOG capabilities are over Moment. Also a noticed a lot of frame judder on that first shot. Were there problems with frame rates?

[@lucapontiggia3123]

I would disagree, to some degree with the cinematic mode - you just need to know how to use it and know its limitations. I filmed a wedding hand held, and with the iPhone 13 pro and just some filters - and knowing how it use it got some good results. But thanks for this - got some new ideas from it :) Also, 30fps is fine, you go to 24fps and get 80% slow mo - it is enough for the eye to feel like the shots are silk smooth.

[@nrgao]

I know what you mean but to clarify for anyone else reading who may not know, the 80% slow mo being referred to is actually 20% slow mo. You reduce it by 20% to get 80% true motion capture.

[@lucapontiggia3123]

@@nrgao Yeah thanks for the better phrasing :)

[@mrlennybruce]

Hey, lovely video - very informative and detailed. But I've used an iPhone 12 handheld (with the native camera app) and the footage was stabilized by default. Here, though, that's not the case. How come? Does adding the 3rd party lens change anything? Or the 3rd party camera app?

[@rodrigolandaromero]

I don't know about the Moment app, but Filmic Pro has the option to stabilise the footage or not. Since it's kind of a warp, you do lose a little detail when using it. If you are filming on a gymbal, it's best to turn it off so that the phone doesn't fight with it (both trying to remove shakiness in a different way). I believe that explains it, but you should also check the specs of the app.

[@thomaslanterman4638]

A wedding video to be proud of,a nice couple and friends.cute church building,too. All the good moves and camera motion. I like moving camera shots and cuts from moving to moving. As you said, "cell phones with small sensors don't have the dynamic range of DSLRs ", let alone an Arri Alexis, but I think the look is OK for a real wedding.

[@josuejavalos]

Stoked that you guys were able to get approval from the couple to do this. If couples don’t care for the quality of the footage and just want documentation I don’t see why this wouldn’t work. But most couples, at least mine, hire me for my creative eye and unique editing. This wedding video looks like every Sony shooters wedding videos. Everything in focus, gimbal shots the entire time, overused parallax and slow mo. No good use of sound or music. Like I said it’s great for documentation but it doesn’t tell the story of the couple or show off their personalities

[@vigneshmilliondots]

This would be the most honest camera review than any of other tech reviewers out there. You should do more this these

[@jcml2015]

great video , congratulations for the excellent work , very cool to be able to use moment lenses , but I prefer to use a variable filter , that would help a lot when shooting outdoors 👍 God bless you all .
