Pocket Filmmaker: smooth aerial movements
If you're committed to using a smartphone for your shooting, here's a few ways to get slick, smooth movement like you'd get from a crane or jib with a bigger camera.
Welcome back to CNET Australia's guide to pocket film-making. The Pocket Filmmaker, Jason van Genderen, will be showing you how to turn the smartphone in your pocket into a camera capable of shooting video projects that are worthy of sharing with family and friends, online and even with the judges of some of Australia's biggest short-film festivals.
On this occasion, Jason shows how to get slick, smooth crane- and jib-style movement for your pocket films. As mentioned in the video, you can check out the Australian made Boom Bandit right here.
