Beginner VS Advanced cinematic B-roll with smartphone gimbal | DJI OM4 | tutorial for beginners

[@BruceBidinoff]

Thank you. You’ve opened my mind to think things through before just “jumping” into it. And your presentation is excellent. I’m a landscape photographer who has recently purchased an Osmo 3 and a DJI mini 2. Lots of experimental moments ahead. Get some cobwebs brushed away from this 78 year old grey matter!

[@ZdenkaDarula]

You are very welcome. You’ve got yourself a great toys…. He will enjoy them both. I have lot of fun !!!

[@crud5774]

I love how you put all the elements together and by viewing them separately and then the final edit, the flow makes sense. To those of us watching, it clearly displays how and when B-role content is used to tell a story with context and feeling.

[@ZdenkaDarula]

Thank you very much for your feedback. I am glad the videos work… more is coming up on Monday…. Just getting ready for early morning shoot tomorrow

Ahoj Thank you for this tutorials. I bought a dji om4 a few months ago and its been hiding in my camera bag as I couldnt get to grips with the functions and joystick movement. You've given me the urge to dig it out and try again without the joystick. 😁subscribed too love your style.

[@ZdenkaDarula]

You are very welcome... think of it as tennis racket... rather then using joystick... select right mode and navigate your whole arm into a movement... you will get much better results. Joystick makes everything too crazy fast and hard to control.... it takes time and practice. Once you get it, you will realize that it is actually quite easy to do and you will have hard time going back to handheld....

Hi Zdenka. I'm totally new to photography and i'm loving the tutorials on smartpjhone video and making b-roll. Apologies if this is not the place to ask but can i ask 2 questions. I saw your video about hyperlapses and timelapses and also videos where you select slow motion recording, i see how you have to set various camera settings etc but can you not just speed up or slow down in the editing software afterwards ? And second question - i'm struggling to fully understand gimbal modes such as follow, and tilt locked, not so much what they do, but when you should use them. Is there a rule of thumb as to which you should choose in which situations ? Thank you again for the videos, I'v already learned a ton of stuff !

[@ZdenkaDarula]

You are very welcome.... you have to select correct frame rate otherwise if you just slow down video it will be all jumpy... watch this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j17dgoakrbpsgqs and for modes watch this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rZmYmmytYqytnZo I hope this will help

Thanx again for some great tips. Just started out doing this as a hobby. Can you tell me if it is a general issue when shooting slow motion and 64 and up. I find the first few and last few frames are still normal speed. It is as if the frame rate only kicks in after a few frames. Or am I doing something wrong. I keep forgetting to compensate for it and find some great shows ruined. Greetings from South Africa.

[@ZdenkaDarula]

Yes I noticed the same in some cases… but I usually transfer the files to computer and then slow them down in the post

[@ExcelWithChris]

@@ZdenkaDarula thanks for the tip. So I assume you record everything at 4K ? And which frame rate?

[@ExcelWithChris]

@@ZdenkaDarula just one more question (all new at this). How do you transfer from phone to laptop. I use Iphone but normal Windows pc. I tred to copy using phone cable, but seems to loose quality ( maybe just me doing something wrong, I just browse to phone via file manager and drag and drop). What I do now is safe from phone to Dropbox and then its available on my laptops Dropbox. But takes for ever.

[@WolfQuantum]

I had to come back and share this. So I'm watching a Hallmark Movie (Yes, even old soldiers can be romantics.) There was a recurring commercial for Amazon Prime Days. I got a big kick out of it because they used that flip transition a lot in the commercial. On top of that, the movie was about people filming a travel series and it showed the view through the camera. So naturally, I'm checking aperture and shutter speed settings, plus making sure the exposure indicator was actually showing a proper exposure. One setting was f5.6 and 1/60th. As I recall most TV shows are actually shot at 30fps. I guess with so many content creators on KZbin someone figured out they better have things right in the movie. The biggest kick though was seeing those rolling flip transitions you mentioned you like so much in this video being used so much in the Amazon commercial. I thought I was watching a ZD video. LOL.
