OT: iPhone X short film

[Neil Goodman]

Looks really good.

Been pretty stoked on the picture quality with mine so far but haven’t really tested the video

[Douglas K. dempsey]

Making of videos show extensive use gimbals and support. Interested to know, other than set design (e.g. subject-to-background distance) and lighting, how shallow depth achieved throughout.

I know on the 7, you can tap and hold an area for focus and exposure lock, so I would bet that’s part of it.

In both videos, it’s really the terrific lighting that makes the shots.

I’m curious if the slomo in the first video was in-camera recording or done in post, or a combination.

[Michael Gissing]

Looking at the Youtube comments, they say it was the standard Apple camera app and no post grading. Well they say 99% so I guess something needed post processing. I didn’t see any mention of NLE. Nice work.
