The Apple iPhone has disrupted several technologies since its inception in 2007. Cell phones, music players, book readers, point and shoot cameras, the list goes on. Today more photographs are taken with iPhones than any other device. Hundreds of Apps exist to shoot, edit and publish your photos. Is video with your iPhone the next revolution? That answer is an emphatic YES. You may have heard of Sean Baker’s independent film “Tangerine”, shot entirely on iPhones, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in 2015.

Each new generation of the iPhone improves its video capabilities with cinematic frame rates, slow motion and high-speed capabilities and applications that take your iPhone videos to the level of $1000 camcorders.

In this workshop we will explore the video capture capabilities of your iPhone (iPhone 5s and up), iPhone software featuring apps such as Filmic Pro, Efexio, and Red Giant’s Movie Looks along with iMovie.

We won’t stop there, taking our iPhone video into Adobe’s professional editing software Premiere Pro CC. You will learn how to import footage, create In and Out points and insert into the Timeline. You will mix audio, add music, create transitions and learn the basics of color correction and color grading. You will learn how to export for HD viewing and on line presentation such as YouTube, Vimeo and Facebook. Your iPhone today is a sophisticated computer capable of amazing content creation. Unleash your inner cinematographer with the device in the palm of your hand!
